授業の目的(意義) / Importance of this course

The recent financial crisis and the ensuing Great Recession demonstrated the dependence of the economy on well-functioning financial system. Disruption in certain parts of the financial markets spread throughout the financial system and led to the most severe economic downturn since the Great Depression of the 1930s.
The modern financial system is admittedly complex system. But monetary policy does play a vital role for the well-functioning of the system. It goes without saying that understanding of monetary policy is of extreme importance and well recognized studies regarding monetary policy have been readily available. However, since Great Recession studies of monetary policy has been one of the most active area of academic research. Some of the topics we discuss in this class is very much controversial even today. The purpose of the course is not only learning the basics of monetary policy but also fully understanding the contribution of late developments. Moreover, international dimensions will be featured throughout the course.
