Conference on the Credibility of Government Policy in Honor of Guillermo Calvo

Wednesday, February 22, 2023 - 03:00 to Friday, February 24, 2023 - 08:45

This paper shows how a conflict between the interests of the current government with those of a future government, both of which share the same objective of maximizing social welfare, gives rise to a credibility problem.
