About this book

Within the New Consensus Macroeconomics, monetary policy is upgraded while fiscal policy is downgraded. This new monetary policy has been the main instrument of policy under the guise of inflation targeting, an approach pursued by a number of central banks worldwide. This book raises problems relating to this new monetary and macroeconomic policy.

Reviews

'...this book provides a good overview of the varieties of ongoing research in heterodox economics. It can thus deliver some fresh ideas beyond the NCM and help to overcome the uncritical approach to the assumptions of standard economic theory.' - Jan-Oliver Menz, INTERVENTION - European Journal of Economics and Economic Policies
