Macroeconomics: Institutions, Instability, and Inequality - Paperback

by Wendy Carlin (Author), David Soskice (Author)

At the cutting edge of the subject area, the authors bring the macroeconomics that researchers and policymakers use today into focus. By developing a coherent set of tractable models, the book enables students to explore and make sense of the pressing questions facing global economies.

Carlin and Soskice connect students with contemporary research and policy in macroeconomics. The authors' 3-equation model--extended to include the financial system and with an integrated treatment of inequality--equips students with a method they can apply to the enduring challenges stirred by the financial crisis and the Great Recession.
