He obtained a Ph.D. in Economics from MIT in 1977.

Blanchard has published numerous research papers in the field of macroeconomics, as well as undergraduate and graduate macroeconomics textbooks. In 1987, together with Nobuhiro Kiyotaki, Blanchard demonstrated the importance of monopolistic competition for the aggregate demand multiplier. Most New Keynesian macroeconomic models now assume monopolistic competition for the reasons outlined by them.

His current position of service at the International Monetary Fund is as Economic Counsellor and director of Research.〔(economics.mit.edu )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Olivier Blanchard」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
