Cyclical fluctuations in nominal variables|aggregate price levels and nominal interest rates are documented to be substantially more synchronized across countries than cyclical fluctuations in real output. A transparent mechanism that can account for this striking feature of the nominal...

The decline in the sensitivity of inflation to domestic slack observed in developed countries since the mid 1980's has been often attributed to globalization. However, this intuition has so far not been formalized. I develop a general equilibrium setup in which the sensitivity of inflation to...

The decline in the sensitivity of inflation to domestic slack observed in developed countries over the last 25 years has been often attributed to globalization. However, this intuition has so far not been formalized. I develop a general equilibrium setup that can rationalize the flattening of...

The sensitivity of inflation to domestic slack has declined in developed countries since the mid-1980s. This article shows why this might result from globalization favoring concentration. To do so, I add three ingredients to an otherwise standard general equilibrium two-country new-Keynesian...

How does competition affect information acquisition of firms and thus the response of inflation and output to monetary … inattention and oligopolistic competition. In the model, rationally inattentive firms acquire information about the endogenous … oligopolistic competition increases monetary non-neutrality by up to 77% and amplifies the half-life of output response to monetary …

We estimate both a forward looking and a hybrid New Keynesian Phillips Curve using Generalized Method of Moments (GMM).the findings suggest that inflation is persistent phenomenon in Pakistan and past inflation is having significant explanatory power. Contrary to conventional wisdom, the output...

This paper investigates the relationship between trade openness and the sacrifice ratio for 126 countries from 1973 to 2007. The instrumental variable quantile regression method is used to explain heterogeneous impact of openness on sacrifice ratio, where openness is endogenous. Empirical...

This paper investigates the relationship between trade openness and inflation for panel data from 1970 to 2007. The results show a negative effect of trade openness on inflation when inflation is higher but no effect when inflation is lower. The negative relationship is stronger along with the...

This paper applies GMMestimation to assess empirically the small open-economy New Keynesian Phillips Curve derived in Galí and Monacelli (2005). We obtain a testable specification where fluctuations in the terms of trade enter explicitly, thus allowing a comparison of the relevance of domestic...
