1 BGSE Macroeconomics I Prof. Keith Kuester Winter term, 2015/16 Outline: This first part of the PhD macro sequence is aimed at introducing students to basic techniques, concepts, and workhorse models in dynamic macroeconomics. We start by discussing the neoclassical growth model without uncertainty. The model serves to introduce dynamic programming techniques and useful economic concepts. Then, we introduce risk. We will focus on complete financial markets, and study their implications for asset pricing. Having done this, we turn to cyclical fluctuations and the cost of business cycles. The course then introduces equilibrium unemployment theory. Next, the course introduces business cycles, discussing both tools and specific applications. In particular, we use what has become known as the New Keynesian model to discuss monetary and fiscal policy. If time remains, the course closes with a discussion of topics related to the global and financial crisis. Required Reading: Dirk Krueger (2013): Macroeconomic Theory, notes (on ecampus). Per Krusell (2014): Real Macroeconomic Theory, notes (on ecampus). Jordi Galí (2008): Monetary Policy, Inflation and the Business Cycle. An Introduction to the New Keynesian Framework, Princeton University Press. The (roughly) first half of the course uses Macroeconomic Theory, the second half Jordi Galí s book. Additional readings may be provided as the course progresses. Additional readings may be assigned as the course progresses. Sooner or later, you may also find the following books useful: Stokey, Lucas, Prescott, Recursive Methods in Economic Dynamics, HUP (1989). Ljungqvist, Sargent, Recursive Macroeconomic Theory 3rd edition, MIT Press (2012) (LS). Cahuc, Zylberberg, Labor Economics, MIT Press (2001). 1
