Application of the IS-PC-MR model in the modern macroeconomics

In contemporary economic literature, very significant position takes 'new' neoclassical synthesis, which refers to the consensus about the role of monetary policy in the modern economy, the role of expectations, the importance of money and looking 'forward' by economic agents. For more than a half of century, IS-LM model was the main instrument of macroeconomic analysis. However, modern conditions have led to the situation where traditional IS-LM analysis is not applicable any more. Hence, a new, IS-PC-MR model is developed, and the research objective of the paper is to analyze the IS-PC-MR model as the basic tool of modern macroeconomics, which is able to explain the contemporary macroeconomic issues, with a focus primarily on the role of monetary policy during the shocks in the economy and inflation targeting.
