1Policy evaluation based on the estimation of dynamic stochastic general equilibrium
models with aggregate macroeconomic time series rests on the assumption that a representative agent can be identi¿ed, whose behavioural parameters are independent of the policy rules.
Building on earlier work by Geweke, the main goal of this paper is to show that the
representative agent is in general not structural, in the sense that its estimated behavioural parameters are not policy-independent. The paper identi¿es two different sources of non-structurality.
The latter is shown to be a fairly general feature of optimizing representative
agent rational expectations models estimated on macroeconomic data.
