Comments
This course offers students an introduction to general economic concepts and principles. Starting from the basic ideas of tradeoffs, opportunity cost, and trade, students will study how the market forces of supply and demand cause prices to be what they are. Students will learn how different market structures and particular government economic policies can affect economic performance. The aggregate economy is analyzed using the national income and product accounting framework of macroeconomics. International trade and economic growth over the long run provide the two major themes of macroeconomics for course discussions. At the end of the course, students will have a basic understanding of economic principles, mechanisms and debates. Students will learn to draw economic policy inferences and to recognize the potential constraints in their implementation. They will think critically about the limits of the various models and verify if the respective model fits the situation they are explaining. Attendance at the fist session is mandatory. close
