I believe that during the last financial crises, macroeconomists (and I include myself among them) failed the country, and indeed the world. In September 2008, central bankers were in desperate need of a playbook that offered a systematic plan of attack to deal with fast-evolving circumstances. Macroeconomics should have been able to provide that playbook. It could not.
10
Of course, from a longer view, macroeconomists let policymakers down much earlier, because they did not provide policymakers with rules to avoid the circumstances that led to the global financial meltdown. FASCISM!!!!

Monetary policy is the process by which the monetary authority of a country controls the supply of money, often targeting a rate of interest for the purpose of promoting economic growth and stability. (Wikipedia)
13
The term monetary policy refers to the actions undertaken by a central bank, such as the Federal Reserve, to influence the availability and cost of money and credit as a means of helping to promote national economic goals. (Federal Reserve) http://www.federalreserve.gov/generalinfo/faq/faqmpo.htm

Edmond S. Phelps, Nobel Laureate in Economics 2006 The upshot of my work is that the function of the Central Bank is to manage expectations of inflation. That’s what the whole game is about. I think that basic message is widely know in the Central Banking fraternity. http://nobelprize.org/mediaplayer/index.php?id=148
