Market Power in Macroeconomic Models: New Developments
– Earlier work on the market-power foundations of macroeconomics (see Silvestre, Journal of Economic Literature, 1993) adopted static or temporary equilibrium models.

The issues discussed include: (a) unemployment at low wages; (b) red...

This paper investigates the implications of this view in light of the question of how the scienti c method has recently contributed to the evolution of economic practice. It is argue that agent-based models might provide a platform for an integration of recent micro and macroeconomi...
متن کاملBifurcations in Macroeconomic Models
Grandmont (1985) found that the parameter space of even the simplest, most classical models is stratified into bifurcation regions. But in such classical models all policies are Ricardian equivalent and all solutions are Pareto optimal. As a result he was not able to reach conclusions about policy relevance of his dramatic discovery. Barnett and He (1999,2002) subsequently found transcritical, ...
متن کاملMacroeconomic Policy in DSGE and Agent-Based Models Redux: New Developments and Challenges Ahead
The Great Recession seems to be a natural experiment for economic analysis, in that it has shown the inadequacy of the predominant theoretical framework — the New Neoclassical Synthesis (NNS) — grounded on the DSGE model. In this paper, we present a critical discussion of the theoretical, empirical and political-economy pitfalls of the DSGE-based approach to policy analysis. We suggest that a m...
