About the course

The course deals with central macroeconomic theory for both long-term growth and short-term fluctuations, inflation and unemployment, exchange rates and international trade. As compared to previous levels, there is an in-depth analysis of consumption and investment theory, business cycles, the role of financial markets, wage formation and unemployment. The course also deals with the possibilities and limitations of economic policy, the importance of norms and institutional conditions, exchange rate systems, the position of the Riksbank and the role of fiscal policy in the short and long run.
