This chapter discusses debates around stabilization policy. It considers whether policy should be active or passive in response to economic fluctuations, and whether policy should be set by rule or allow discretion. Arguments for active policy include reducing economic hardship, while arguments for passive policy cite lags in policy effects. Rules are argued to increase credibility and avoid time inconsistency, while discretion allows flexibility. Overall there is no clear consensus from history on the best approach.Efectos psicol坦gicos de un roboSecuritas Direct Espa単a
