New-Keynesian economics: An AS–AD view

Author

Listed:
  • Benigno, Pierpaolo

Abstract

A simple New-Keynesian model is set out with AS–AD graphical analysis. The model is consistent with modern central banking, which targets short-term nominal interest rates instead of money supply aggregates. This simple framework enables us to analyze the economic impact of productivity or mark-up disturbances and to study alternative monetary and fiscal policies.
