The animal spirits hypothesis and the Benhabib-Farmer condition for indeterminacy
2012, Economic ModellingCitation Excerpt :It is worth noting that this is a fairly rough-and-ready way to handle beliefs.9 Indeed, Kamihigashi (1996) argues the observational equivalence between a RBC and an ‘animal spirits’ economy. Specifically, Kamihigashi (1996) shows that given a realization of A(t) (V(t)) it is always possible to define a process for V(t) (A(t)) such that the optimal path for a RBC (‘animal spirits’) economy is an optimal path also for an ‘animal spirits’ (RBC) economy.
