| | Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis Quarterly Review: Nobel laureate Robert E. Lucas, Jr.: architect ... @ HighBeam ... |
 | | Lucas has made significant contributions to a number of fields in economics including financial economics (1978), monetary theory (1980a, Lucas and Stokey 1987), public finance (Lucas and Stokey 1983), international economics (1982), and, most recently, economic growth (1988). |  | | Lucas, remember, is seeking to create a framework in which a current expansion in the stock of money first creates a surge in real activity, as the evidence suggests actually occurs, but is neutral in the long run. |  | | Here Lucas showed how asset prices could be expressed as a function of the economy's state variables and that this function is the solution to a functional equation that arises from individual optimization and market-clearing. |

| | Lucas critique - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The Lucas critique by itself casts doubt on the ability of activist stabilization policy to be beneficial because Lucas indicates that the effect of policy on aggregate demand depends on the public's expectations. |  | | According to Lucas Critique, prediction based on historical data would be invalid if some policy change alters the relationship between relevant variables (such as private agents' rational expectations of inflation). |  | | If the policy change alters the relationship between the variables, then the historical relationship between the variables would differ in the future relationship. |

 | | Lucas avoids any discussion of public policies that will quicken growth or reduce poverty, beyond the need for governments to dispense birth control information and to finance education. |  | | The Harvard economist Robert Barro acknowledges that “government therefore has great potential for, good or ill through its influence upon the long-term rate of growth.” [6] The problem is that the governments of many poor countries lack the social capacity to implement appropriate policies. |

| | Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis-The Region-Interview with Robert E. Lucas Jr. (June 1993) |
 | | Lucas: Taxing capital involves taxing income twice: once when you receive it, before you save it, and then once again when you get the return on the savings. |  | | Lucas: I didn't read the accounts of that get-together. |  | | In fact, you asserted that such a change in our tax policy would be "the largest genuinely free lunch I have seen in 25 years in this business." Could you explain why this would be such a good policy? |

| | Chicagos Robert Lucas wins Nobel Prize |
 | | Because of Lucas work, economists today are better informed and less optimistic about the ability of governments to fine-tune economies through changes in monetary or other policies. |  | | The result is a rethinking of the effect of government economic policies. |  | | His worked has shown that because people make rational decisions about their economic welfare, their actions can alter the expected results of government economic policies. |

 | | Lucas' critique of the Phillips curve shows that inflation may continue to rise in the long run without a corresponding drop in unemployment because higher production costs and higher consumer prices can eventually offset higher revenues and higher wages, thereby dampening the expectations of both companies and workers. |  | | One such Keynesian model, the Phillips curve, proposes that a government can lower the rate of unemployment by stimulating inflation and thereby encouraging companies, which anticipate higher revenues, to raise wages and attract more workers. |  | | Lucas was also known for his contributions to investment theory, international finance, and economic growth theory. |

 | | He developed the "Lucas critique" of economic policymaking, which holds that relationships that appear to hold in the economy, such as an apparent relationship between inflation and unemployment, change in response to changes in economic policy. |  | | He also helped developed the Lucas-Islands model, which suggests that people are tricked by monetary policy. |  | | He is well known for his investigations into the implications of the assumption of rational expectations. |

 | | Lucas found that individuals will offset the intended results of national fiscal and monetary policy by making private economic decisions based on past experiences and anticipated results. |  | | Robert Lucas won the Nobel prize for economics in 1995 for his rational-expectations theory, which was based on decision-makers' abilities to predict the results of governmental economic policies and thus potentially subvert the intended effects of the policies. |  | | U.S. motion-picture director, writer, and producer George Lucas created some of the most popular films of all time. |
