Macroeconomics
Autor Professor Bill Mitchell, Professor L. Randall Wray, Professor Martin Wattsen Limba Engleză Paperback – 25 feb 2019
Problema centrală pe care o rezolvă Macroeconomics este dependența mediului academic de ipotezele economice „ortodoxe” care au eșuat în a explica sau preveni crizele majore din ultimele decenii. Considerăm că acest manual reprezintă un punct de cotitură, fiind prima lucrare fundamentală care construiește un model economic de la zero pe baza Teoriei Monetare Moderne (MMT). În loc să accepte pasiv modelele standard, descoperim aici o analiză critică ce integrează perspectivele lui Keynes, Marx sau Minsky pentru a oferi o înțelegere mai profundă a suveranității valutare și a operațiunilor fiscale.
Structura volumului, publicat de Bloomsbury Publishing, este riguros organizată în cinci părți, facilitând o progresie logică de la conceptele de măsurare și contabilitate națională către dinamica banilor și a sistemului bancar. Partea finală se concentrează pe rezultate practice, analizând șomajul, inflația și politicile de ocupare deplină. Această organizare permite utilizarea cărții atât în cursuri introductive, cât și în cele avansate, deoarece autorii au separat materialul matematic dens în anexe, păstrând firul narativ axat pe logică și filosofie economică.
Pe linia practică a volumului Macroeconomic Principles and Problems de Geoffrey Schneider, dar cu un focus exclusiv pe fundamentarea și aplicarea modelului MMT, această lucrare se distinge prin rigoarea cu care demontează miturile despre datoria publică și constrângerile financiare ale statelor emitente de monedă. Este o resursă esențială pentru cei care doresc să înțeleagă de ce politicile convenționale au generat performanțe economice slabe în statele capitaliste dezvoltate.

Recenzii
Finally, a macroeconomics text that takes a modern-monetary approach to the macroeconomy. Finally, an alternative to the mainstream vision of the macro economy and what it says and, more importantly, fails to say, about the real world. The presentation of Keynes closely approximates his vision, a much-needed change from texts that present a "bastardized" view of Keynes' theory. The book is highly readable, the assumptions underlying the different models are presented clearly, the logic easy to follow, and the historical context serves to add relevance.
A complete, up-to-date and excellent account of macroeconomic theory. An excellent critique of the mainstream economic paradigm, it calls for more realistic approaches to human behaviour, and for heterodox ideas in economics. It presents macroeconomic methodology in the light of the 2007-08 crisis, and outlines how economics should proceed in the post-crash world. One of the most interesting and remarkable macroeconomics textbooks of the past few years.
Finally, a macro textbook that rejects neoclassical microfoundations as a basis for understanding how capitalism works. The authors replace maximizing individuals with social classes where capitalist firms exercising differential power largely determine economic outcomes.
The most progressive macroeconomics textbook on the market. Organized around a balance sheet view, the authors carefully examine the most important issues of our time: Why government as the sovereign issuer of currency is not financially constrained, how banks create deposits by making loans and how the central bank influences the economy by shifting interest rates. The authors are outstanding scholars of macroeconomics, and this textbook should enlighten the next generation of students. I recommend it wholeheartedly.
A uniquely well-structured, clear discussion of macroeconomics for the 21st century, contrasting a useful and realistic analysis of a modern monetary production economy with the flawed, unrealistic and outdated narrowly neoclassical approach which has failed so comprehensively in recent years. Quite simply the best economics textbook I have ever read, and one which should become a standard text in many universities and colleges in the years to come.
Supremely accessible . Unlike most other textbooks, it explains schools of thought, relates them to the history of economic ideas and provides historical and institutional detail. Students are invited to reflect on why economists disagree, what macroeconomics means, and the role of language and framing. One can only wish that all textbooks nurtured sensitivity to these topics in future economists. All in all, an exceptionally clear text for students new to macroeconomics and a good grounding in the current policy debates shown in the final part of the book ... It marries pluralism of ideas with a clear exposition of Modern Monetary Theory, all with institutional realism and analytical rigor - a major feat. Highly recommended!
This is a long awaited first-year university textbook where heterodox and mainstream approaches run side by side within a critical framework which avoids the pedagogical pitfall of forcing students to learn economics through mainstream lenses. Students and experienced economists alike can learn from this wonderful book.
