Présentation
The first part of this course focuses on the measure of the national income (the GDP) and its evolution over time (the business cycle). Through the IS/LM model, Okun’s Law and the Philips Curve, students will be able to picture a short term equilibrium using the main macroeconomic aggregates (GDP, inflation, interest rate, unemployment). The next section will be dedicated to the effects of fiscal and monetary policy on the economic growth.
