Chicago Booth Review Research-driven insights on business, policy, and markets. A Chicago Booth publication. It subsequently evolved into a magazine of the same name.

Chicago Booth Review publishes research-driven insights on business, policy, and markets. We are a publication of the University of Chicago Booth School of Business. The magazine traces its origins back to the 1960s, when Chicago Booth—or the Graduate School of Business, as it was then known—began publishing Selected Papers, written by faculty members for a general audience. In 1997, the school launched Capital Ideas as a separate newsletter that featured articles about faculty research. In 2016, we rebranded as Chicago Booth Review. Chicago Booth’s insistence on robust data, careful analysis, and rigorous models has characterized the Chicago Approach, and it’s our guiding value. Chicago has a long and proud tradition of debate and discussion. We welcome your comments and contributions.

Congrats to winners of this year's in Economic Sciences 👏

Stanford’s Robert E. Hall and Columbia University’s Michael Woodford were recognized for their research advancing our understanding of how well-timed fiscal and monetary policy can reduce the economy’s peaks and troughs.

In a CBR story from 2017, we looked at Woodford’s research on the importance of forward guidance: http://ms.spr.ly/6188aSNlE

In an effort to better manage inflation expectations, Ben Bernanke brought more transparency to the Fed, and his successors largely followed suit.

Until now. Current chair Kevin Warsh has questioned this openness.

Research suggests that Warsh may have a point.

Maybe it’s not what the Fed says but what it does that matters.
