Macroeconomics of Open Economy (PEMAOE) This advanced course aims to broaden the macroeconomic knowledge and provide a survey of contemporary approaches to the theory of open economy. It provides theoretical tools for an analysis of determinants of the behaviour of open economy and explains economic theory to allow an understanding of the structure, functioning and influence on the open economy from development in other segments of world economy.
