The Modern Period
The Lucas Critique is an economic theory proposed by Robert Lucas that challenges the effectiveness of traditional Keynesian economics in predicting the outcomes of policy changes. It argues that economic agents adjust their expectations based on past experiences and information, making it essential to consider these expectations when assessing the impact of policy measures. This critique has significant implications for how economists understand the relationship between policy interventions and economic behavior.
