Macroeconomics

Abstract

This book provides a comprehensive view of macroeconomic theory, theories of economic growth and how economic performance is affected by this growth. This second edition now has activities and self-evaluation exercises at the end of each chapter to improve readability and to aid the flow of discussion. Feedback to these activities and exercises is given at the end of the book. The text is structured so that each of the topics can be covered conveniently in a one-semester module. In instances where both microeconomics and macroeconomics need to be taught within a semester, a selection of topics from this book and its companion, Microeconomics - a southern African perspective, may be selected by the instructor.
