Supply-Side Effects of Disinflation Programs

TL;DR: In this paper, the short and long-run effects of disinflation programs in a two-sector economy are studied and the authors conclude that when appreciation and deficits are due to supply-side rigidities, rather than to credibility and/or price stickiness, no further policies (e.g., capital controls, incomes policies) are advisable.

The Zero Root Problem: A Note on the Dynamic Determination of the Stationary Equilibrium in Linear Models

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that singular transition matrices imply indeterminacy of the stationary equilibrium, and the authors provided a unique solution to the indeterminancy of the equilibrium.

Optimal Taylor Rules in an Estimated Model of a Small Open Economy

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compute welfare-maximizing Taylor rules in a dynamic general-equilibrium model of a small open economy and find that the welfare gains from moving to the optimal Taylor rule are larger than those obtained by previous researchers.

Asset Accumulation, Fertility Choice and Nondegenerate Dynamics in a Small Open Economy

TL;DR: In this paper, the assumption of elastic fertility choices represents an unconsidered way of introducing nondegenerate dynamics within an immortal small open economy, facing perfect capital mobility and no adjustment costs associated with capital accumulation, and having a fixed discount rate.

Investment Tax Credit in an Open Economy

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of permanent and temporary investment tax credit (ITC) in an open economy were compared, and it was shown that if the ITC is permanent, the accumulation of capital leads to a higher equilibrium capital stock, higher employment and output, and a reduction in the economy's stock of net credit.

The Terms of Trade and the Current Account: The Harberger-Laursen-Metzler Effect

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the effect of terms of trade changes on a small country's spending and current account, assuming optimizing behavior in an intertemporal framework with perfect international capital mobility.
