Course Code
_
This course is designed to deepen students’ understanding of economic theory and methods. It is a major step above what they would have covered in their introductory course even though it builds on many of the same concepts. Topics include: unemployment, money and inflation; economic fluctuations within the context of the ISLM framework; stabilization policy and the problems of government debt and budget deficits. By the end of the course students should have a good understanding of how economies work and how to make them work better, that is, more efficiently.
