Strategic Monetary Policy with Non-Atomistic Wage-Setters

Author

Listed:
  • Lippi, F.

Abstract

This paper proposes a monetary policy game based on a microfounded general equilibrium model. The approach allows some key features of the policy game to be related to basic technological and preference parameters. Moreover, it shows how results are affected by the presence of non-atomistic private agents.
