A READER’S GUIDE TO RATIONAL EXPECTATIONS: A Survey and Comprehensive Annotated Bibliography

Overview

The major purpose of this work is to make staying up to date with rational expectations (RE) easier for economists in government, academia and industry, as well as for students. In writing this work, the author wanted to provide the reader with an introduction to rational expectations which enables him or her to tackle the literature. That is the task of Part I. In Part II a bibliography containing the literature on rational expectations - which has reached a voluminous level in the 1980s - is put at the reader's fingertips. In the introduction to rational expectations (RE) the author attempts to define the various versions of RE verbally and formally side by side so that the reader can immediately comprehend that some definitions of RE are more restrictive than others. Even the layman with a minimal knowledge of statistics and economics should be able to understand the text.

Reviews

'This is a concise and balanced overview of the theory of rational expectations and its impact upon modern macroeconomic analysis. This text begins with a well-organized, well-written and non-technical introduction into rational expectations. The text also includes a comprehensive, although non-exhaustive, list of major and influential books, articles and reviews of rational expectations published from 1961 through 1989.' -- Timothy E. Sullivan, American Reference Book Annual '... provides the most comprehensive bibliography of the literature that I have yet come across. It will be particularly useful for graduate students who are trawling the literature for relevant material.' -- David Demery, The Economic Journal
