DISTURBING ECONOMIC MYSTERIES: Is Federal Reserve Policy Working?

Philip Arestis and John SL McCombie ()

Challenge, 2005, vol. 48, issue 2, pages 48-66

Abstract: Many observers believe the Federal Reserve will continue to raise interest rates to stem any increase in inflationary expectations. But these economists present a closely argued theoretical case that many of the assumptions underlying current monetary policy may be wrong. They believe the U.S. economy is vulnerable, and the Fed may be tightening prematurely.
