This thesis is about monetary and fiscal policy in New Keynesian DSGE models. Chapter 2 presents the baseline New Keynesian DSGE model. Monetary policy is in the form of a simple interest rate Taylor-type policy rule, while fiscal policy is exogenous. Chapter 3 extends the model of Chapter 2 to include fiscal policy. Now, both monetary and fiscal policy are allowed to follow feedback rules. Chapter 4 sets up a New Keynesian model of a semi-small open economy with sovereign risk premia. Finally, Chapter 5 builds a New Keynesian DSGE model consisting of two heterogeneous countries participating in a monetary union.Throughout most of the thesis, policy is conducted via "simple", "implementable" and "optimized" feedback policy rules. Using such rules, the aim of policy is twofold: firslty, it aims to stabilize the economy when the latter is hit by shocks; secondly, it aims to improve the economy's resource allocation.

The aim of this study is to present selected aspects of fiscal and monetary policy shocks as the subject of studies of open economy macroeconomics. The study concentrates on the development of the model presentation (evolution of the research method) in description of fiscal and monetary policy shocks, with a focus on the modern quantitative approach. At present the modern approach to the research on fiscal and monetary policy shocks is based on advanced methods of data analyzing, such as autoregressive models (VAR), or stochastic dynamic general equilibrium models (DSGE)
