This course introduces the theories that explain
the evolution of economic aggregates overtime.
Equilibrium levels of output and the determinants of long-term economic
growth, consumption, savings, investment, short-term economic fluctuations,
unemployment, inflation and interest rates are analyzed. Stabilization
policies, i.e. fiscal and monetary policies, and their effects on economic
aggregates are explored in both closed and open economy models.
