Structural macro-econometric modelling in a policy environment |
Summary / Abstract
|
In this paper we review the evolution of macroeconomic modelling in a policy environment that took place over the past sixty years. We identify and characterise four generations of macro models. Particular attention is paid to the fourth generation -- dynamic stochastic general equilibrium models. We discuss some of the problems in how these models are implemented and quantified.

Remarks
|
This is a very useful survey paper (jointly with Martin Fukac) by the world-renowned Australian econometrician, Adrian Pagan, whom I met in Singapore when we were both Visiting Profs at Bobby Mariano's SMU during 2005-06. By policy environment, they mean "central banking." |
