Macroeconomics B

Summary

The aim of the subject is to both deepen and expand students´ knowledge of
macroeconomic phenomena acquired in the first year of their studies. The
subject covers various areas of mainstream macroeconomic theory at the
intermediate level. Unlike introductory macroeconomics ("Macroeconomics A")
course, this subject strongly emphasizes microeconomic foundations of
macroeconomic theories and thus requires sound knowledge of basic economic
principles. Within the subject, neo-Keynesian, monetarist, new classical and
new Keynesian doctrines are confronted and discussed.
