This book is based on a conference celebrating the 50th anniversary
of the Deutsche Bundesbank. Since the 1950s, there have been
fundamental changes in the monetary order and financial systems, in
our understanding of the effects of monetary policy, the best goals
for central banks and the appropriate institutional setting of
central banks. Prominent monetary economists and central bankers
give their views on the most significant developments during this
period and the lessons we should draw from them. The book contains
four sections on central issues. The first part discusses the main
successes and failures of monetary policy since the 1950s. The
second part asks what economists have learned about monetary policy
over the past 50 years. It gives an overview on experiences with
various monetary strategies, focusing in particular on monetary
targeting and its problems, on inflation targeting and why it was
successful and the institutional framework for monetary policy. The
next section outlines the progress that monetary economists have
made since the Bundesbank was founded and discusses the extent to
which central banks can rely on "scientific" principles. The final
part describes the interaction between monetary policy, fiscal
policy and labour markets. The book provides a comprehensive
overview of the main challenges faced by central bankers in the
past and how and to what extent monetary economics have been
helpful in tackling them. It outlines our current knowledge about
the effects of monetary policy and the appropriate institutional
framework for central banks and raises some open questions for the
future. It will be of great interest to monetary economists,
central bankers and economic historians.
