Readings in Macroeconomics

Over the last ten years, the widely acclaimed Oxford Review of Economic Policy has published papers written in a non-technical style by leading policy experts. This Reader brings together in one volume the most significant and widely cited OREP papers in macroeconomics, many of which have been updated and revised. An indispensable guide to recent theoretical and policy-oriented developments in the area, this comprehensive and carefully-chosen selection is an ideal student purchase. Macroeconomics includes sections on Fiscal Policy, Exchange Rates and Monetary Policy, Consumption and the Balance of Payments, Inflation, Unemployment, and Growth and Productivity. Contributors to this volume include David Begg, Paul Krugman, Assar Lindbeck, John Muellbauer, Steven Nickell, and Denis Snower. There is also a companion volume on microeconomics. This book is intended for second year undergraduate economics students taking the core course in macroeconomics; or taking a course entitled `Macro policy' or `Macro Issues'.
