Macroeconomics: Foundations and Insights

About This Course

Welcome to the Macroeconomics course! This course is designed to provide you with a deep understanding of what an economy is, how it operates, and the factors that sustain and influence economic activity, including the role of policy interventions.

You will comprehend the theoretical frameworks through a contextualized treatment of concepts considering the experiences in the developing world and the global economy. You will get familiarized with the major macroeconomic debates. The course emphasizes intuitive learning of concepts with the help of diagrams, with only limited reliance on statistical or mathematical techniques.
