Understanding the World Macroeconomy

Understanding the World Economy is provided by Nouriel Roubini, Associate
Professor of Economics and International Business at the Stern School of
Business, New York University  for his MBA Macroeconomics course. The aim
of the course is to review and analyze current macroeconomic issues from
the viewpoint of businesses and policymakers. The highlight of the web site
is the collection of  lecture notes by Nouriel Roubini and David Backus
covering topics on the macroeconomy. These notes are comprehensive and
contain links to other web resources related to the topics. The other
highlight of the site is "Recent Macroeconomic Controversies and Policy
Debates," which introduces the readers to the major macroeconomic issues in
the United States. The topics covered there include supply-side economics,
productivity growth and NAIRU (Non-Accelerating Inflation Rate of
Unemployment) among others. A hypertext glossary of business cycle
indicators and links to sources of data for business cycles can be found on
the site as well. Finally, the site also contains the syllabus, reading
list, handouts and assignments for the course. [THN]
