DSGE models — a macroeconomic dead end | LARS P. SYLL
Both approaches to DSGE macroeconometrics (VAR and Bayesian) have evident vulnerabilities, which substantially derive from how parameters are handled in the technique. In brief, parameters from formally elegant models are calibrated in order to obtain simulated values that reproduce some stylized fact and/or some empirical data distribution, thus relating the underlying theoretical model and the…

But is econometrics -- really -- such a great testing instrument? Econometrics is supposed to be able to test…
