Description
Summary:The book revisits the subject matter of macroeconomic theory in a two-sector disequilibrium model inspired by the structural theories of the business cycle developed by Tugan-Baranowski, Aftalion, Fanno, and Lowe. The functioning of each market is modeled following Hicks: the features of each market depend on the characteristics of the goods traded. In this framework, endogenous irregular business cycles arise. The issues of the impact of technical progress and the effectiveness of a stabilizing fiscal policy are thoroughly discussed. The book concludes with a discussion of all of these problems in a case of open economy.
