    Macroeconomics ,4th edition

    Published 2021

    Language: British English

    Develop a unified view of the latest global macroeconomic events, connecting the short, medium, and long-run markets.

    Macroeconomics: A European Perspective, 4th edition by Blanchard, Amighini & Giavazzi, offers the European perspective based on the best-selling US text by leading author Olivier Blanchard, presenting an integrated, global view of macroeconomics, and showing the connections between goods markets, financial markets, and labour markets worldwide.

    An essential textbook for students studying Macroeconomics at an intermediate level, this is a book rooted in the real world: from the major economic crisis of the late 2000s to the profound economic effects caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, from monetary policy in the US to Brexit, the problems of the Euro area, and growth in China, this edition will help you make sense not only of current macroeconomic events but also those that may unfold in the future.

    Key features include:

    • A new chapter 'The COVID economic crisis' examines the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
    • A new appendix, 'What do macroeconomists do?', explores career options for those thinking about taking their Macroeconomics study further.
    • Organised into two distinct parts: a core section focuses on short, medium, and long-run markets, and two extensions offer more in-depth coverage of the issues.
    • Margin notes help re-create a student-teacher dialogue, further explaining more challenging concepts.
    • Focus boxes discuss real macroeconomic events and facts from Europe, the United States, and around the world.

    With a series of features and digital resources to help you cement your learning, this is a must-have textbook on the European perspective reflecting all major contemporary changes in the field.
