Resumo: A sticky-information macroeconomic model is developed in order to analyze the behavior of the time trajectories of the inflation rate and of the output gap, when disturbed by eventual monetary policy shocks. In opposition to what is typical in the literature on this subject, di¤erent paces on information updating explicitly lead to a setting with interaction among heterogeneous agents. Speci.cally, we consider firms with di¤erent information updating frequencies whose behavior implies the emergence of attentiveness cycles of possibly large lengths; within these cycles we deduct a di¤erently shaped Phillips curve for each time period. The developed scenario and the accomplished results, which involve long-term endogenous .uctuations triggered by simple policy rules, allow to classify the proposed framework as a complexity view on macroeconomics.

Em oposição ao que é comum em literatura sobre este assunto, diferentes ritmos de atualização de informação conduzem explicitamente a um cenário de interação entre agentes heterogéneos. Especificamente, consideram-se empresas com diferentes frequências de atualização de informação cujo comportamento implica a emergência de ciclos de atenção de possivelmente longa duração; no seio destes ciclos deduzem-se curvas de Phillips com diferentes formas para cada período temporal. Alterações sistemáticas na forma da relação de oferta agregada são o motor que despoleta uma resposta lenta a choques e a eventual persistência de flutuações cíclicas.EGV EPGE2012-10-02info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArticlesArtigosapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.fgv.br/rbe/article/view/3720Revista Brasileira de Economia; Vol. 66 No. 3 (2012): Jul-Set; 271-288Revista Brasileira de Economia; v. 66 n. 3 (2012): Jul-Set; 271-2881806-91340034-7140reponame:Revista Brasileira de Economia (Online)instname:Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV)instacron:FGVporenghttps://periodicos.fgv.br/rbe/article/view/3720/4239https://periodicos.fgv.br/rbe/article/view/3720/4245Gomes, Orlandoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2016-12-16T12:27:35Zoai:ojs.periodicos.fgv.br:article/3720Revistahttps://periodicos.fgv.br/rbe/https://periodicos.fgv.br/rbe/oai||rbe@fgv.br1806-91340034-7140opendoar:2024-03-06T13:03:30.649918Revista Brasileira de Economia (Online) - Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV)true
