Principles of Macroeconomics

Abstract

Macroeconomics investigates economic phenomena at the aggregate level, specifically focusing on the overall economic scenario of a country. This entails a thorough examination of various economic activities, including consumption, investment, and saving. The analysis extends to entities participating in these activities, such as households, businesses, government, and international relationships. By scrutinizing the levels and fluctuations of these activities, macroeconomics aims to identify critical issues and obstacles impeding economic development, such as unemployment, inflation, and recession. Macroeconomics also seeks to propose effective solutions through economic policy interventions, drawing on classical and Keynesian theories. This module comprises a series of lectures tailored for second-year students in economic, commercial, and management sciences. The content aligns with the curriculum established by the Algerian Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research
