This paper verifies the uncovered interest parity to Brazilian economy. The main finding is that under fixed exchange rate the uncovered interesty parity fails. This confirms the theoretical point proposed by Krasker (1980)

This article suggests an alternative approach, nested in exogeneity tests, to test the Ricardian Equivalence Hypothesis. The intuitive appeal and the sophisticated statistical method are the advantages of this new procedure. Furthermore, it is argued against the use of the value of correlation...

This paper deals with a macroeconomic coordination and its stabilization within a new Keynesian framework. The dynamic treatment of a twocountry model is made by simulation, using the linear quadratic algorithm. We compare the optimal monetary policy rule for three types of equilibria:...

In the late 80’s Pasinetti showed that the essential feature of the Cambridge Equation is preserved in his model of growth and income distribution with balanced or unbalanced budget. He did not work out both the share of incomes and the conditions of stability and was not formally concerned...
