Course history

Introduction

Kurset gir en innføring i emner innenfor makroøkonomi. I makroøkonomi studeres økonomien under ett. Her fokuseres det på de totale økonomiske størrelsene i økonomien så som samlet produksjon, samlet konsum, arbeidsledighet, inflasjon, renter mm. Et sentralt tema er hvordan slike størrelser måles og hva de forteller om den økonomiske situasjonen i et land. Konjunkturbevegelser og makroøkonomisk politikk er hovedtema i kurset.
