Economist:Macro
Links and Resources
August 2011
Why do economies sometimes grow rapidly, while at
other times they suffer from recession? Why, if people want to work,
do they sometimes find themselves unemployed? Why do economies experience
inflation (rising prices), and does it matter if they do? Why do exchange
rates change and what will be the impact of such things on imports and
exports? These macroeconomic issues affect all countries, and economists
are called on to try to find explanations and solutions.
