30. A Micro-to-Macro Model of the Swedish Economy.

Author

Lucken, Jack A.

Subjects
ECONOMICS, NONFICTION
Abstract

Despite the frequent criticisms of the forecasting achievements of large scale econometric models their makers, undiscouraged, continue to nibble at the problem of increasing the realism, accuracy, and reliability of their forecasts as compared with those of naive models. Medium and long-term models are often found to perform the most satisfactorily in practice and seem therefore to be well-suited for exploratory studies. This volume describes some of the ongoing efforts, results, and future plans of a group of economists in the development of a medium term (five year) projections model of the Swedish economy.

Abstract

One of the most gracious gestures of respect on the retirement of an eminent person is the revelation of a sense of diminution (and perhaps void) caused by the event. When the case on hand involves a leading academic, colleagues and former students gather in a Festschrift to reminisce, and reassure the scholar about the lasting value of his contributions to the scientific community.

49. International Monetary Problems, 1957-1963: Selected Speeches of Per Jacobsson.

Author

SALANT, WILLIAM A.

Subjects
ECONOMICS, NONFICTION
Abstract

Per Jacobsson was not only a distinguished economist and banker, but a forceful and colorful personality. The present volume conveys a clear impression of his views, but little of the force and color of the man. An earlier collection of Jacobsson's speeches and papers was published several years ago as Some Monetary Problems-International and National (Oxford University Press, 1958); the confusing similarity of titles will doubtless bedevil readers and librarians for years to come.
