| Summary: | This paper suggests a theoretical macroeconomic design, which overviews every aspect of current common macroeconomic thought. In order to do it, we start by defining the basic values in which an economy should be based on. Monetary and fiscal policy instruments are subjected to analysis, which relate to what we define as intermediate goals, in contrast with which is apparently taken as the final goals for policymakers. Going beyond, we analyze our target variables for this design, suggesting a new one, which is in line with some wealth targeting measures claimed in some circles. Such target variables would improve the satisfaction of needs and wants by individuals, and contribute to human development, which would offer a feedback to the values in which an economy is supposed to be based on. |
