Basic concepts such as monetary function, the velocity of circulation, inflation, interest rate parity and the quantity theory were all present. The good advice from Michael Woodford's theories is that even when a large shock hits the This advice regarding monetary policy has already been fully implemented by policymakers. Believing that we had made big economic fluctuations a thing of the past took a remarkable amount of hubris. A new theory of monetary policy must first be constructed standing on the shoulders of these giants. Reply It almost seems as if the term “Keynesian Economics” has become a synonym for every anti-free-market economic policy the federal government proposes, but if people were to actually study Keynes economic theories they would discover that most common media references to Keynes are Oh yes, I also find Socialism (the one implemented) flawed for a number of reasons. I explained my view, that as long as reserves pay the same interest rate as very short-term Treasuries, and as long as banks are holding huge amounts of excess reserves, that monetary policy and pure quantitative easing -- buy short-term treasuries, give the banks more reserves . The fiscal multiplier may be, but monetary policy looks like it is still going strong. The good advice from Michael Woodford's theories is that even when a large shock hits the economy, the current, established path of the price level should be maintained by monetary policy. Monetary policy was guided by monetary thought, such as later in Europe. This advice regarding monetary policy has already been fully implemented by policymakers. Krugman's definition is a bit more general: when conventional monetary policy no longer stimulates, otherwise known as the zero lower bound (ZLB). So you finally got past Chapter XII of The General Theory. Markets are not stable, efficient, or self-correcting. Of course, the reason we have monetary policy in the first place—the reason why government acts to intervene in the economy—is that we don't believe that markets on their own will set the right short-term interest rate. If we did, we would just let free markets determine that interest rate. And in my opinion erroneous, belief is that present demand for consumers' goods output determines the scope of present investment, especially without considering supply side qualifiers that would radically change the implications of Keynes' general theory. The US Federal Reserve's expansionary monetary policy has failed to bolster demand and employment growth, while embedding inflation in America's future. This suggests that monetary policy has the same “bang-per-unit-of-surprise” as previously and that the exchange channel of monetary policy is still working as effectively as in the past. Whether 1) or 2) as outlined above is to blame of the current malaise, we must assume that it will have been largely fixed by that point.
