| Tiivistelmä: | The fiscal theory of price determination suggests that if primary surpluses evolve independently of gorvernment debt, the equilibrium price level "jumps" to assure fiscal sovency. In this non-Ricardian regime, fiscal policy - not monetary policy - provides the nominal anchor. This paper argues that Ricardian regimes are as theoretically plausible as non-Ricardian regimes, and provide a more plausible interpretation of certain aspects of the postwar U.S. data than non-Ricardian regimes. |
