Whether these policies are based on some rules or are set at the discretion of the government has been a matter of controversy. Inflation Targeting adopted by many countries is characterized by the announcement of official target ranges for the inflation rate, by explicit acknowledgement that low and stable inflation is the main goal of monetary policy, and by delegating the execution of them to the central bank. Furthermore, Inflation Targeting includes increased communication with the public about the odjectives of the monetary policymaker, and, in many cases increased accountability of the central bank for attaining those objectives. In this issue I address the theoretical basis of why Inflation Targeting has been introduced in recent years by many countries.
