Clarify substance of contributions edit
I'd appreciate if a knowledgeable economist provide a 10-word, plain-language description of the following terms:
- Vector autoregression in empirical macroeconomics.
- Fiscal theory of the price level
- Theory of rational inattention
In light of the Nobel announcement this morning, this page will get visits from many lay people and those explanations will help folks understand the discoveries for which the prize was awarded. The prize statement from the Prize Committee is unhelpfully vague. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Phytism (talk • contribs) 11:50, 10 October 2011 (UTC)
If you follow the link to the page for Fiscal theory of the price level the intro provides a good basic description Japenfold (talk) 19:42, 12 October 2011 (UTC) Yes it does! Thanks. Anybody up for defining the others? Phytism (talk) 19:40, 9 November 2011 (UTC)
