课程简介 Course Description

 

    本课程介绍国际经济学中的宏观部分—国际金融。主要内容包括:开放宏观经济介绍、汇率决定、国际收支平衡、国际金融体制构建和国际经济中的主要现实问题等。

This is a course on open-economy macroeconomics and finance. The goal of this course is to examine several interesting topics such as introduction to international macroeconomics, exchange rate, the balance of payment. The first module of the course will lay out several useful theories regarding exchange rate and international finance, and the second module will help you assemble these theories into an overall analytical framework. The third module will challenge you to apply this analytical framework to real-world applications.

 

By the end of the course, I hope that you will have developed a keen interest in issues related to international finance, as well as a set of analytical tools that can be applied on other fields. You should be able to analyze, in an unbiased way, a wide array of important international policy issues.
