The Rational Expectations theory is a model and concept that tends to explain how people react to economic situations, and behave in certain moments, economically speaking, both personal and nationwide, taking three particularities into account: their own rational thought process, the information that is given to them, and also, and most importantly, their past experiences.

The monetary policy is defined as the means by which the institutions responsible for controlling the economy of a nation do so by either managing the interest rates on borrowing, and lending, and also by issuing policies on money availability and supply in the market. Lucas’s paper analyzes policy questions in what we regard to be the proper way, namely, in the context of a consistent general equilibrium model.

Although individual forecasts can be very wide of the mark, actual economic outcomes do not vary in a predictable way from participants’ aggregate predictions or expectations. Once those expectations changed, as his theory of rational expectations said they would, then the empirical equations would change, making the models useless for predicting the results of different fiscal and monetary policies. Rational expectations has been a working assumption in recent studies that try to explain how monetary and fiscal authorities can retain (or lose) "good reputations" for their conduct of policy. Quite appropriately, it is widely agreed that monetary policy should obey a rule, that is, a schedule expressing the setting of the monetary authority’s instrument (e.g., the money supply) as a function of all the information it has received up through the current moment.
