Overview

How did monetary policy contribute to and react to the global surge of inflation in 2021–23? Where did inflation come from, and why did it decline without a substantial recession? How can central banks and governments avoid inflation? The contributors to this volume cover monetary policies around the world, examining financial regulation; the links between fiscal and monetary policy; the effects of monetary policy on the economy, particularly on labor markets; and challenges for central banks.

“This excellent volume is essential for understanding the recent history of monetary policy and our path forward. Current and former Fed officials and leading academics all offer valuable insight into the consequential policy questions raised by the events of the last three years. Highly recommended.”

“The Hoover monetary policy series is a ‘must read’ for all academics, central bankers, and market professionals who are looking for in-depth analysis together with a broad perspective on global monetary policy before, during, and after the surge of inflation.”
