Περιγραφή Μαθήματος

This is the first part of the compulsory graduate course in Macroeconomic Theory. It assumes some familiarity with undergraduate macroeconomics and basic mathematical tools.

We focus on models of economic growth and aggregate fluctuations, unemployment and inflation and monetary and fiscal policy.

The course aims to present the main models used in modern macroeconomic analysis and research, and to familiarize students with them as well as with current analytical methods and techniques.

The course covers the following topics:

  1. Models of exogenous and endogenous growth. 
  2. New Classical and New Keynesian models of aggregate fluctuations. 
  3. Models of Monetary and Fiscal Policy

The detailed notes of lectures and exercises, communications and the supplementary material are posted in the AUEB e-class Macroeconomic Theory and the dedicated website for the course,
