The theory of macroeconomic fluctuations : Open sites
The symposium is a follow-up to the 2007-2008 lecture by the Economic Theory and Social Organization Chair, which was devoted to macroeconomic models and international trade. The aim of the symposium is to provide an overview of the latest research on macroeconomic fluctuations. Simulations, market imperfections and agents' horizons are the themes addressed in the morning, while the afternoon session focuses on the problems of price formation and expectations.
