No 99, 2011 Meeting Papers from Society for Economic Dynamics

Abstract: The use of competitive search protocols in final goods allows for the specification of models where demand shocks generate propagations that look like productivity shocks. In such environments there is a role for expansion of public expenditures during recessions. We investigate the empirical and quantitative validity of model economies with these properties.
