Mankiw's Undergraduate Introduction to DSGE

Économiste Monétaire · 2009-04-08 12:08:55

Just something I found really interesting, vis-á-vis the change in undergraduate teaching: Mankiw is to include a new chapter in the 7th Edition of his Intermediate Macroeconomics text. It's a dynamic AD-AS model, which he intends as an extremely simplified introduction to DSGE. You can read the pre-published chapter here…

Cool.

Though those of us who went to real universities covered the dynamics of the AS-AD model in second year anyway

I hope that wasn't a jibe at the glorious standards of your, soon to be, alma mater.

Blame the module coordinator and the teaching capacity of the tutors (:pac:), not the students. With a new HoS, hopefully there will be review of the content. Although, apparently, graduate Macro has no place to talk about standards :pac:.
