Great expectations: the role of beliefs in economics and monetary policy

Whether one looks at consumers or businesses, expectations - people's beliefs - are driving forces of every economy. The economic outcomes one can expect from public policy are affected by the way beliefs are formed and how they vary over time. In "Great Expectations: The Role of Beliefs in Economics and Monetary Policy," President Anthony Santomero presents his perspective on the important role beliefs play in economic decisions and policymaking.

Recent economic disturbances in Latin America-particularly the currency crises in Mexico in 1994-95 and Brazil in 1998-99-have prompted significant research and debate over financial sector reforms and appropriate monetary and fiscal policy for the region. The recent discussion over dollarization is but one of many such debates. ; As the author of this article demonstrates, the current rethinking of economic policy in Latin America is only the latest chapter of a much longer story. Well before the recent episodes of financial turmoil, Latin American economies had already proven vulnerable to ...
