Now being offered in 2005-2006

Convener: Gavin Cameron

Other Tutors: Chris Allsopp, Andrea Boltho, Chris Bowdler, Andrew Glyn, Mark Rebick.

Course Description for 2005

General Information

The intention of the course is to give students a good understanding of current theoretical and empirical work on the macroeconomic policy and development of Western Europe, Japan and the USA (the "old OECD" countries).  The plan is to have 12 2-hour sessions spread across Michaelmas and Hilary terms.  At each of these a faculty member will give an introductory lecture on the topic, one of the graduate students will introduce a discussion based on one or more of the leading papers in the field and there will be time for general discussion.
