- Double-weighted statement
- This work is of exceptional originality, rigor, and significance. It offers an in-depth analysis of how central bank committees work and how their policy communications affect public's expectations and the economy. The author proposes a new theory of committee decision making with evidence from new textual analysis of Fed's decision making, a German survey, and cross-national data. Taking seven years to complete, it utilises the latest theoretical and empirical tools to the study of contemporary monetary policy. Therefore, we judge the scale of academic investment in the research activity and the intellectual scope of the research output to be considerable.
