Fiscal Stimulus in a Monetary Union: Evidence from U.S. Regions

Consider the closed economy limit of our model. A...
متن کاملOptimal Fiscal and Monetary Policy
We study optimal fiscal and monetary policy in an environment where explicit frictions give rise to valued money, making money essential in the sense that it expands the set of feasible trades.
