AS-AD Disequilibrium Dynamics and the Taylor Interest Rate Policy Rule: Euro Area-Based Estimation and Simulation

Chapter 10 in Aspects of Modern Monetary and Macroeconomic Policies, 2007, pp 172-196 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The future and the success of the European Monetary Union are still unclear in many respects. While some researchers think that monetary unification, with the subsequent higher economic integration and labour mobility between the EMU member countries, will lead to a synchronization of the business cycles of the participating economies, and therefore to a more harmonic macroeconomic environment within the EMU, other observers see great dangers for its stability and even its further existence, due to the present scenario of (competing) heterogeneous fiscal policies and the (non-cooperative) inflation developments in certain economies. In any case, even if such destabilizing factors decrease in the years ahead, the stability of the EMU depends to a large extent on the proper conduct of monetary policy by the ECB and the resulting changes in economic activity and in nominal wage and price adjustment in the EMU in particular.
