Abstract

This article casts the Belgian Great Depression of the 1930s within a dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) framework. The results show that a DSGE model with total factor productivity and monetary shocks, coupled with sticky nominal wages a la Taylor is able to account reasonably well for most of the data on the Depression, but it overestimates real wages.
