ECO 101Introduction to Macroeconomics3
An introductory course which views the behavior of the economy as a whole and the problems of economic organization. Students will explore the fluctuations of output and prices. Problems and measurement of economic growth, inflation, unemployment, and income will be discussed. Money, credit and financial institutions will be analyzed, as well as their impact on fiscal policies and international trade.
This course provides an analysis of the basic market forces of demand and supply, and economic outcomes under different market structures such as competitive, imperfectly competitive, and monopolistic markets. The labor and capital markets are also analyzed. In addition, the economics of the public sector emphasizes tax policy, externalities, monopoly power, and the provision of public goods. The course examines contemporary social issues such as income distribution, poverty, and the welfare system, as well as global issues such as international trade and protectionism.
