Summary

The aim of the course is to deepen the knowledge of economic theory gained from preceding intermediate microeconomics and macroeconomics courses, and to show how to critically evaluate competing modelling approaches and strategies. Attention is paid to both modern neoclassical economics and its heterodox alternatives, with a strong emphasis on the use of mathematically formulated economic models and advanced graphic tools.
