International Workshop: Expectations, Indeterminacy and Economic Policy

International Workshop
Expectations, Indeterminacy and Economic Policy

September, 28-29th 2007
University of Paris X
‘B’ Building, conferences room

Macroeconomic models with rational expectations can display several types of indeterminacies. These phenomena renew the way economic policies can be considered. The purpose of the Workshop is to develop some reflections on the roles of learning and economic policy as selection criteria. 

Papers will deal with the following themes:

  • Formation of expectations and economic policy
  • Learning and coordination of expectations
  • Indeterminacy and equilibrium selection
  • Economic policies and in/determinacy
  • Monetary policy design (optimal monetary policy, Taylor’s rule)
  • Fixed prices and monetary policy
