Rogoff revisited: The conservative central banker proposition under active fiscal policies

Economics Letters, 2009, vol. 104, issue 3, 140-143

Abstract: The paper re-examines Rogoff's [Rogoff, K., 1985. The Optimal Degree of Commitment to an Intermediate Monetary Target. Quarterly Journal of Economics 100, 1169-1189.] influential monetary policy result. It shows that responses of a conservative central banker and the resulting macroeconomic outcomes may be substantially different if interactions with (ambitious) fiscal policy are taken into account.
