Abstract

Robert Lucas es el economista cuyo trabajo ha tenido el mayor impacto sobre el desarrollo de la macroeconomía en el presente siglo. Su contribución a la macroeconomía se concentra en tres temas particulares: la aplicación de la hipótesis de las expectativas racionales, el surgimiento de una teoría de equilibrio de los ciclos económicos y la evaluación econométrica de las políticas económicas. Lucas también ha realizado importantes contribuciones en otros campos de la teoría económica como las finanzas y la teoría del crecimiento económico.
