This paper is focused on modern monetary theory’s (MMT) treatment of inflation from an open-economy perspective. It analyses how the inflation process is explained within the MMT framework and provides empirical evidence in support of this vision. However, it also makes use of a stock–flow consistent open-economy model to underline some limits of the theory when it is applied in the context of a non-US (relatively) open economy with a flexible exchange-rate regime. The model challenges the contention made by MMT-ers that measures such as the job guarantee programme can achieve full employment without facing an inflation–unemployment trade-off.

We reply to the critics who contributed the other papers in the same issue of this journal. In the first part of the article, we indicate those remarks addressed to us, which we deem inappropriate to answer. The second part deals with the remarks we find useful to answer, which relate to money, monetary policy and central banking on the one hand, and to fiscal policy on the other hand. The third part recalls remarks we made in our previous publications and that our critics did not wish to consider, whereas this might have helped them in amending their theory. In the fourth part, we conclude that an opportunity to engage in a more fruitful debate may thus have been missed: indeed, it takes two to tango.
