Official synopsis Publisher
Stephen Turnovsky has made numerous important contributions to the field of intertemporal general equilibrium macroeconomics. This new text contains the core of his work and stands apart from other related texts in its treatment of rational expectations methods and its rigorous analysis of policy issues, an overarching concern that runs through the different models.
“Methods of Macroeconomic Dynamics” provides a comprehensive treatment of dynamic modeling for first- and second-year graduate students. It focuses on certain key macroeconomic models — selected from early as well as recent research – to teach students how dynamic modeling is used to analyze the effects of policy on economic growth and performance. Large portions of the text are devoted to rational expectations models and to the representative agent model in continuous time. Professionals will find the book useful as a reference that offers both a broad overview of the evolution of methods of macroeconomic dynamics and a detailed explanation of the technical aspects of the most recent dynamic models.
