Book excerpt: Systematically structured and written in the clear, accessible language that has made Professor Taylor one of the world\'s leading teachers of economics, the constant focus of the second edition of Macroeconomics is on student understanding. Long run economic growth theory and economic fluctuations theory are fully explained and explored, as are the various relationships between macroeconomic variables and their implications for macroeconomic policy. Taylor\'s unique approach to macroeconomics - covering long term growth before short term fluctuations and his model of aggregate demand and supply which accommodates inflation rates - have been adopted by other instructors and authors. The early presentation of the long run perspective sets up the discussion of fluctuations as deviations from the long-run path and Taylor\'s model of AD/AS is now widely accepted as a more accurate depiction of the relationship between changes in the price level and GDP. A companion volume Microeconomics is available. FEATURES The following pedagogical features are designed to help the student learn economics. The boxed examples to give real-life perspectives are \'Economics at work\', which demonstrate the relationship between the theory and everyday practice and highlight the day-to-day operation of economic principles \'Media analysis\', which help students critically analyse recent news, as well as interpret analysis by the media. The media articles are followed by main points and questions to enhance student learning. Full colour has been used to distinguish between curves and to show how the curves shift dynamically over time. Complete captions and small shaded conversation boxes in graphs make many of the figures completely self-contained. In some graphs, sequential numbering of these conversation boxes stresses the dynamic nature of the curves. Margin boxes appear where an additional explanation or reminder will help students more easily grasp a new concept. Photographs and cartoons are used to illustrate abstract ideas. Special care has gone into the search for and selection of photographs to illustrate difficult economic ideas, such as inelastic supply curves and opportunity costs. Most text photographs (many consisting of two or three parts) have a short title and caption to explain their relevance to the text discussion. Key term definitions appear in the margins and the key terms are listed at the end of every chapter. There is also a glossary at the end of the book. Brief reviews at the end of each major section summarise the key points in abbreviated form as the chapter evolves. These reviews are useful for preliminary skim reading as well as for review. Questions for review at the end of every chapter are tests of recall and require only short answers. They can be used for oral review or as a quick self-check. Problems, an essential tool in learning economics, have been carefully selected, revised and tested. An ample supply of problems appear in every chapter. Some problems ask the reader to work out examples that are slightly different from the ones in the text; others require a more critical thinking approach. A second set of problems that parallel those at the end of each chapter is included in the accompanying test bank.

Book Strategies for Monetary Policy

Download or read book Strategies for Monetary Policy written by John H. Cochrane and published by Hoover Press. This book was released on 2020-05-01 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the Federal Reserve System conducts its latest review of the strategies, tools, and communication practices it deploys to pursue its dual-mandate goals of maximum employment and price stability, Strategies for Monetary Policy—drawn from the 2019 Monetary Policy Conference at the Hoover Institution—emerges as an especially timely volume. The book's expert contributors examine key policy issues, offering their perspectives on US monetary policy tools and instruments and the interaction between Fed policies and financial markets. The contributors review central bank inflation-targeting policies, how various monetary strategies actually work in practice, and the use of nominal GDP targeting as a way to get the credit market to work well and fix the friction in that market. In addition, they discuss the effects of the various rules that the Fed considers in setting policy, how the Fed's excessive fine-tuning of the economy and financial markets has added financial market volatility and harmed economic performance, and the key issues that impact achievement of the Fed's 2 percent inflation objective. The volume concludes by exploring potential options for enhancing our policy approach.

Book A History of Macroeconomics from Keynes to Lucas and Beyond

Download or read book A History of Macroeconomics from Keynes to Lucas and Beyond written by Michel De Vroey and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2016-01-08 with total page 451 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book retraces the history of macroeconomics from Keynes's General Theory to the present. Central to it is the contrast between a Keynesian era and a Lucasian - or dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) - era, each ruled by distinct methodological standards. In the Keynesian era, the book studies the following theories: Keynesian macroeconomics, monetarism, disequilibrium macro (Patinkin, Leijongufvud, and Clower) non-Walrasian equilibrium models, and first-generation new Keynesian models. Three stages are identified in the DSGE era: new classical macro (Lucas), RBC modelling, and second-generation new Keynesian modeling. The book also examines a few selected works aimed at presenting alternatives to Lucasian macro. While not eschewing analytical content, Michel De Vroey focuses on substantive assessments, and the models studied are presented in a pedagogical and vivid yet critical way.

Book Reconstructing Macroeconomics

Download or read book Reconstructing Macroeconomics written by Lance TAYLOR and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2009-06-30 with total page 455 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Macroeconomics is in disarray. No one approach is dominant, and an increasing divide between theory and empirics is evident. This book presents both a critique of mainstream macroeconomics from a structuralist perspective and an exposition of modern structuralist approaches. The fundamental assumption of structuralism is that it is impossible to understand a macroeconomy without understanding its major institutions and distributive relationships across productive sectors and social groups. Lance Taylor focuses his critique on mainstream monetarist, new classical, new Keynesian, and growth models. He examines them from a historical perspective, tracing monetarism from its eighteenth-century roots and comparing current monetarist and new classical models with those of the post-Wicksellian, pre-Keynesian generation of macroeconomists. He contrasts the new Keynesian vision with Keynes's General Theory, and analyzes contemporary growth theories against long traditions of thought about economic development and structural change.

It surveys an astonishing range of macroeconomic problems and approaches in a compact, coherent critical framework with unfailing depth, wit, and subtlety. Lance Taylor's pathbreaking work in structural macroeconomics and econometrics sets challenging standards of rigor, realism, and insight for the field. Taylor shows why the structuralist and Keynesian insistence on putting accounting consistency, income distribution, and aggregate demand at the center of macroeconomic analysis is indispensable to understanding real-world macroeconomic events in both developing and developed economies. The book is full of new results, modeling techniques, and shrewd suggestions for further research. Taylor's scrupulous and balanced appraisal of the whole range of macroeconomic schools of thought will be a source of new perspectives to macroeconomists of every persuasion. --Duncan K. Foley, New School University Lance Taylor has produced a masterful and comprehensive critical survey of existing macro models, both mainstream and structuralist, which breaks considerable new ground. The pace is brisk, the level is high, and the writing is entertaining. The author's sense of humor and literary references enliven the discussion of otherwise arcane and technical, but extremely important, issues in macro theory. This book is sure to become a standard reference that future generations of macroeconomists will refer to for decades to come. --Robert Blecker, American University While there are other books dealing with heterodox macroeconomics, this book surpasses them all in the quality of its presentation and in the careful treatment and criticism of orthodox macroeconomics including its recent contributions. The book is unique in the way it systematically covers heterodox growth theory and its relations to other aspects of heterodox macroeconomics using a common organizing framework in terms of accounting relations, and in the way it compares the theories with mainstream contributions. Another positive and novel feature of the book is that it takes a long view of the development of economic ideas, which leads to a more accurate appreciation of the real contributions by recent theoretical developments than is possible in a presentation that ignores the history of macroeconomics. --Amitava Dutt, University of Notre Dame
