by Felipe Larrain B. (Author)
The non-economist's accessible, pocket-sized refresher on the basics of macroeconomics and how it affects local and global economies--from an academic economist and 2-time Chilean Finance Minister.
Macroeconomics takes a broad perspective on the economy of a country or region; it studies economic changes in the aggregate, collecting data on production, unemployment, inflation, consumption, investment, trade, and other aspects of national and international economic life. Policymakers depend on macroeconomists' knowledge when making decisions about such issues as taxes and the public budget, monetary and exchange rate policies, and trade policies--all of which, in turn, affect decisions made by individuals and businesses.
