Active and passive monetary policy in an overlapping generations model
In a standard overlapping generations model, active monetary policy reinforces mechanisms that lead to equilibrium indeterminacy and to countercyclical behavior of young-age consumption. The policy rule which minimizes inflation volatility can be active or passive, depending on the characteristics of shocks and the risk aversion of households. Inflation forecast errors are always greater under ...
متن کاملSpecialization in a Dynamic Trade Model : An Overlapping Generations Case
We explore a small-open economy with overlapping generations to understand what is the determinant of trade pattern in the dynamic trade theory. In the representative agent model (Baxter (1992) ), even if there are two goods and two production factors, opening up to trade leads to perfect specialization. Using the overlapping generations model, we find that the heterogeneity of the economic age...
متن کاملOverlapping Generations and Environmental Policy: An Introduction
A small but growing body of literature uses overlapping generations (OLG) models to study environmental policy for long-lived problems such as climate change. An OLG model, unlike the infinitely lived representative agent model, distinguishes between impatience with respect to one’s own future utility, and attitudes toward successors’ utility. I discuss the problem of time inconsistency, the ro...
متن کاملAn Overlapping Generations Model of Electoral Competition
This paper presents a dynamic model of political competition between two "parties" with different policy preferences. A "party" is explicitly modelled as a sequence of overlapping generations of candidates, all of whom face finite decision horizons. In general, there is a conflict between the interests of the individual policymakers and those of the "party" , which includes subsequent generatio...
متن کاملAn overlapping-generations model with search
Search is embeded in an overlapping-generations model. Young people participate a centralized market and a decentralized market sequentially and olds only participates the centralized market. The demographic feature allows analytical tractability. In a series examples, positve inflation rates are Pareto optimal. JEL classification: E31
