Interest rate rules, price determinacy and the value of money in a non-Ricardian world
This article studies under which conditions interest rate rules “à la Taylor (1993)” lead to price determinacy.

The role of fiscal developments in inflation determination under a non-Ricardian regime is illustrated throu...
