ECON 1100
Global Macroeconomic Issues
Course Description
The goal is to provoke discussion, with differing viewpoints put forward, and lead students to analyze major economic problems as economists might do. The course will center upon resource-scarce issues: e.g. in a low-income country that provides little public education, what would you do first, and what would you do last? There will also be discussion about current global macroeconomic trends, including inflation, debt, and economic growth.
