Apresentar as teorias que explicam o curto-prazo e as políticas macroeconômicas de estabilização. Estudar o papel das expectativas sobre algumas das principais variáveis macroeconômicas. Analisar o comportamento do nível de renda e produto, juros nominais e reais, câmbio e inflação, além dos efeitos de política fiscal e monetária em modelos de economia aberta.

This course presents theories that are able to explain the functioning of the macreconomy in the short-run. The course builds on Macroeconomics I on three main dimensions: 1) it considers intertemporal choices, 2) it provides a deeper understanding of the role of expectations on Macroeconomics, and 3) it assumes an open-economy. It also introduces the tools that are avaialble to policy makers for stabilization purposes. In short, you will see, through the lens of an open economy model, the behavior of income levels, exchange rates, interest rates and inflation.
