    TEXT: 
  /LP, /TX       Monetary policymakers and central banks universally recognize that, in 
    the long run, inflation is strictly determined by monetary policy. However, 
    they disagree sharply about the role of monetary aggregates in the conduct 
    of monetary policy. For example, former Federal Reserve Governor Lawrence 
    Meyer has said that "money plays no role in todays consensus macro 
    model - and virtually no role in the conduct of monetary policy, at least in 
    the United States." In contrast, Otmar Issing, former member of the 
    Executive Board of the European Central Bank (ECB) has said that, "money 
    should never be ignored-neither in monetary policy nor in research." 
         These differences in views are reflected in the way the Federal 
    Reserve and the ECB conduct monetary policy and communicate with the 
    public. At the Federal Reserve, the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) no 
    longer specifies targets or monitoring ranges for the monetary aggregates, 
    and committee members seldom mention the aggregates in their deliberations. 
    For example, a search of the most recently published transcript of an FOMC 
    meeting (for December 2001) reveals that the money supply was mentioned 
     . . . 
         ENDNOTES 
         1 The FOMC's actions and communications also influence the publics 
    expectation of future settings of the federal funds rate which, in turn, 
    can influence long-term interest rates (Kahn 2007).

        APPENDIX 
         TWO APPROACHES TO THE ROLE OF MONEY IN MONETARY POLICY 
         Two different perspectives underlie the differing approaches to money 
    in the conduct of monetary policy. In one perspective, monetary 
    policymakers are viewed as best achieving their long-run inflation goal by
