Keynesianism on Investment Trap - Dictionary of Arguments
Mause I 225 Def Investment Trap/Keynesianism: in the so-called investment trap, interest rate changes have no influence on investment demand. The possibility of a so-called fine-tuning of the economy by monetary policy is therefore viewed with skepticism. Post-Keynesian models (1) are sceptical about the interest rate response of investment demand. In extreme cases, monetary policy is not only weakly effective and with delays, but is completely ineffective. According to the New Keynesian theory, due to the inverse causal chain, no monetary transmission channel opens up at all. >Interest rates, >Monetary policy, >Keynesianism, >J.M. Keynes. 1.
