Abstract

In this paper, we set out the JEM (Japanese Economic Model), a large macroeconomic model of the Japanese Economy. Although the JEM is a theoretical model designed with a view to overcoming the Lucas (1976) critique of traditional large macroeconomic models, it can also be used for both projection and simulation analysis. This is achieved by embedding a mechanism within which ``short-run dynamics,'' basically captured by a vector autoregression model, eventually converge to a ``short-run equilibrium,'' which is defined using a dynamic general equilibrium-type model
