A New Micro-Foundation for Keynesian Economics

Abstract

Standard micro-founded macroeconomics starts with optimization exercises to derive the precise behavior of the representative agent and regards the macroeconomy as a homothetic enlargement of a micro agent. This paper takes a different approach and presents a new micro-foundation for Keynesian economics. The key concept is stochastic macro-equilibrium, which is a natural extension of the labor search theory.
