The NBER Macroeconomics Annual presents research on central issues in contemporary macroeconomics. Martin Kornejew, Chen Lian, Yueran Ma, Pablo Ottonello, and Diego Perez investigate the role of bankruptcy institutions in mitigating the economic fallout of credit crunches following booms and find that efficient institutions reduce the adverse effect of credit tightening on GDP. Santiago Camara, Lawrence Christiano, and Hüsnü Dalgic analyze the global effects of US monetary policy shocks, with particular attention to trade channels and financial frictions, and find that tighter US monetary policy leads to more pronounced contractions in emerging markets than in advanced economies. David Altig, Alan Auerbach, Erin Eidschun, Laurence Kotlikoff, and Victor Yifan Ye assess the welfare costs of inflation through interactions with tax and benefit programs and show that imperfect indexation leads to welfare losses for some households and gains for others. Paul Beaudry, Chenyu Hou, and Franck Portier examine inflation dynamics and find that supply shocks and inflation expectations are pivotal for explaining them. Finally, Davide Debortoli and Jordi Galí develop a simplified two-agent new Keynesian (TANK) model to emulate more complex heterogeneous agent new Keynesian (HANK) models, and use it to examine the many channels through which heterogeneity influences aggregate fluctuations.

Proceedings of the Harvard Celtic Colloquium, Volume 43 showcases the wide geographic, temporal, and linguistic range of the presentations at the 2024 Harvard Celtic Colloquium. This volume contains Liam Breatnach’s 2024 J. V. Kelleher lecture on the Senchas Már, an early Irish legal text and Benjamin Bruch’s keynote address on the quantity system shared by the p-Celtic languages Cornish and Welsh. The ten other articles present detailed studies of various aspects of Irish and Welsh language, literature, folklore, and culture, both medieval and contemporary. Several of them examine Irish and Welsh literature in a European context. These range from analysis of portrayal of Ireland in film, to enduring lore concerning the Irish famine, to themes of ecology in the writing of Rachel Carson and R. Williams Parry. Two articles examine religious tenets, one on the medieval context of the Apostles Creed in post Conquest Wales, and the other compares how gender influenced the idea of penance in medieval Ireland and Korea.
