ECON 222: Macroeconomic Theory I (Fall 2019 & Fall 2020 & Fall 2021)

[Syllabus]

The objective of this course is to help students understand key issues in macroeconomic theory, its applications, and policy implications. The first part of the course discusses in some detail macroeconomic data and key issues related to specific sub-sectors of the economy: aggregate consumption/saving behaviour, investment and asset markets, labour and product markets, international flows, and exchange rates. The second part of the course builds on the first by integrating these sub-sectors into fully-specified macroeconomic models. These models are used to understand key problems such as inflation, unemployment, balance of payments crises, and the implications of policies designed to address them.
