Book Description
This book examines new classical macroeconomics from a comparative and critical point of view that confronts the original texts and later comments as a first dimension of comparison. The second dimension appears in a historical context, since none of the new classical doctrines can be analyzed ignoring the parallelism and discrepancies with the theory of Keynes, Friedman or Phelps. Radicalism of new classical macroeconomics has brought fundamental changes in economic thought, but the doctrines got vulgarized and distorted thanks to the mass of followers. Nowadays, economic theory and policy, trying to find their ways, have a less clear relationship than ever. Therefore, this volume is aimed at mapping and reconsidering the policy instruments and transmission mechanisms offered by the new classicals. Its central question points to the real nature of new classical macroeconomics: what consequences are grounded by the assumptions new classicals used. Moreover, issues raised by automatic fiscal stabilizers and fiscal reforms are analyzed as well, even if they were out of the range of classical texts. The book draws a picture of new classical macroeconomics stressing the analogies with Keynesian countercyclical policies, instead of the discrepancies commonly held.

Book Description
What is New Classical Macroeconomics In the field of macroeconomics, there is a school of thinking known as new classical macroeconomics, which is also referred to occasionally as simply new classical economics. This school of thought bases its analysis wholly on a neoclassical framework. In particular, it places an emphasis on the significance of having robust foundations that are founded on microeconomics, particularly rational anticipated outcomes. How you will benefit (I) Insights, and validations about the following topics: Chapter 1: New classical macroeconomics Chapter 2: Keynesian economics Chapter 3: Macroeconomics Chapter 4: Neoclassical economics Chapter 5: Stagflation Chapter 6: New Keynesian economics Chapter 7: Robert Lucas Jr. Chapter 8: Neutrality of money Chapter 9: Costas Azariadis Chapter 10: Policy-ineffectiveness proposition Chapter 11: Permanent income hypothesis Chapter 12: Mainstream economics Chapter 13: Schools of economic thought Chapter 14: Dynamic stochastic general equilibrium Chapter 15: Microfoundations Chapter 16: Neoclassical synthesis Chapter 17: Saltwater and freshwater economics Chapter 18: Home economics Chapter 19: History of macroeconomic thought Chapter 20: General disequilibrium Chapter 21: New neoclassical synthesis (II) Answering the public top questions about new classical macroeconomics.

Methodological Foundations of Macroeconomics

Book Description
This book is an investigation of the methodological and epistemological foundations of macroeconomic theory, based on an examination of the theories of Keynes and Lucas. It is divided into two parts. In the first Professor Vercelli discusses the methodological issues which lie behind the conflict among different schools of thought in macroeconomics (equilibrium and disequilibrium, risk and uncertainty, rationality and causality). These issues are central to the current debate not only in many branches of economics, but also in other scientific disciplines. The traditional point of view of science based on equilibrium, stability and determinism has been increasingly challenged by a new point of view in which disequilibrium, instability and uncertainty play a crucial role. This, the author argues, is bound to put macroeconomics in a new, more promising position. In the second part of the book the author compares the two main alternative research programmes in macroeconomics: that outlined by Keynes in his 'General Theory', and that suggested by Lucas, the leader of the new classical economists.

Book Description
Back to the future: a heterodox economist rewrites Keynes's General Theory of Employment, Interest, and Money to serve as the basis for a macroeconomics for the twenty-first century. John Maynard Keynes's General Theory of Employment, Interest, and Money was the most influential economic idea of the twentieth century. But, argues Stephen Marglin, its radical implications were obscured by Keynes's lack of the mathematical tools necessary to argue convincingly that the problem was the market itself, as distinct from myriad sources of friction around its margins. Marglin fills in the theoretical gaps, revealing the deeper meaning of the General Theory. Drawing on eight decades of discussion and debate since the General Theory was published, as well as on his own research, Marglin substantiates Keynes's intuition that there is no mechanism within a capitalist economy that ensures full employment. Even if deregulating the economy could make it more like the textbook ideal of perfect competition, this would not address the problem that Keynes identified: the potential inadequacy of aggregate demand. Ordinary citizens have paid a steep price for the distortion of Keynes's message. Fiscal policy has been relegated to emergencies like the Great Recession. Monetary policy has focused unduly on inflation. In both cases the underlying rationale is the false premise that in the long run at least the economy is self-regulating so that fiscal policy is unnecessary and inflation beyond a modest 2 percent serves no useful purpose. Fleshing out Keynes's intuition that the problem is not the warts on the body of capitalism but capitalism itself, Raising Keynes provides the foundation for a twenty-first-century macroeconomics that can both respond to crises and guide long-run policy.

Book Description
The Friedman-Lucas Transition in Macroeconomics: A Structuralist Approach considers how and to what extent monetarist and new classical theories of the business-cycle can be regarded as approximately true descriptions of a cycle’s causal structure or whether they can be no more than useful predictive instruments. This book will be of interest to upper-division undergraduates, graduate students, researchers and professionals concerned with practical, theoretical and historical aspects of macroeconomics and business-cycle modeling. Offers a wide selection of Robert Lucas’s unpublished works Discusses the history of business-cycle theories in the context of methodological advancements Suggests effective arguments for emphasizing the key role of representative agents and their assumed properties in macro-modeling

Book Description
What is Neoclassical Economics In the field of economics, neoclassical economics refers to an approach that observes the production, consumption, and valuation (price) of commodities and services as being driven by the supply and demand model. According to this school of thinking, the value of a product or service is established by a hypothetical process that involves the maximization of utility by individuals with limited incomes and of profits by businesses that are confronted with production costs and make use of the information and factors of production that are accessible. By making reference to rational choice theory, this strategy has frequently been defended as being appropriate.

Essay from the year 2016 in the subject Economics - Macro-economics, general, , course: Economics, language: English, abstract: The neoclassical school has two founding members WS Jevons and L. Walras, who wrote their key projects in the 1870s. The difference made by the neoclassical school in relation to the classical school is that it uses the principles of utilitarianism of the human nature in the sphere of economy. The man is a rational person looking for the maximum satisfaction of his/her needs, for getting the maximum utility by directing his/her actions towards the increase of his/her pleasure and the reduction of his/her pain. Thus, for the neo-classical economists, the consumer seeks the combination of goods that maximizes the utility derived from consumption and the producer seeks to maximize profits, while each individual chooses the combination of work and leisure that maximizes his/her satisfaction. Also, they argue that the value of goods results from the satisfaction they provide and not from the work they incorporate as the classical economists believed. From the text: - the market failure to achieve efficiency and justice; - imperfect competition; - equality of power; - external consequences
