Synopsis

Macroeconomics teaches students to be young economists, providing a contemporary approach to the subject and a wealth of real-life case studies to allow students to understand how economics works in practice.

Responding to the financial crisis, this text explains the modern approach to macroeconomics with simplicity and rigour, while retaining the focus on particular characteristics of the European economy. The authors analyse different theoretical approaches and contextualise theory with up-to-date monetary policy examples.
