Economics 3rd edition

36 lectures, 30 minutes/lecture Taught by Timothy Taylor Macalester College M.Econ., Stanford University
We are all economists—when we work, buy, save, invest, pay taxes, and vote. It repays us many times over to be good economists. Economic issues are active in our lives every day. However, when the subject of economics comes up in conversation or on the news, we can find ourselves longing for a more sophisticated understanding of the fundamentals of economics.

The Romantic Economist: Imagination in Economics

The Romantic Economist: Imagination in Economics

Since economies are dynamic processes driven by creativity, social norms, and emotions as well as rational calculation, why do economists largely study them using static equilibrium models and narrow rationalistic assumptions? Economic activity is as much a function of imagination and social sentiments as of the rational optimisation of given preferences and goods. Richard Bronk argues that economists can best model and explain these creative and social aspects of markets by using new structuring assumptions and metaphors derived from the poetry and philosophy of the Romantics.

Among the topics presented are money-in-the-utility function, cash-in-advance, and search models of money informational, portfolio, and nominal rigidities credit frictions the open economy and issues of monetary policy

Modern Economic Issues 36 Lectures (36 Vedios + guide book)Modern Economic Issues 36 Lectures (36 Vedios + guide book)

In Modern Economic Issues, Professor Robert Whaples has crafted a course designed to answer just these sorts of questions—a primer in 21st-century economics for the non-economist. He first presents the results of a survey of professional economists around the country on what they consider today's most urgent economic issues—the ones all of us most need to understand. Professor Whaples then puts his award-winning teaching skills to work to shape an accessible course, explaining not only those urgent issues but also the raw data economists use to describe their shape and impact.
