Topics: This course covers important principles in macroeconomics and international trade. We will discuss topics such as the effects of adverse shocks (e.g. different recent crisis situations) on economies, how fiscal and monetary policy work and how such policies can be used in times of crisis. We will analyze the impact of trade on economies, openness to trade versus protectionism and the implications of different trade instruments.

Topics: Tutorial for the Microeconomics Exam in January 2025
This class is a 2 SWS tutorial based on the “VWL I / Microeconomics” class in the summer term 2024. We will work on the topics of the “VWL I / Microeconomics” class that had been offered in the summer term 2024 and focus on the problem sets related to the different topics.
Microeconomics summer term 2024: The course “Economics I / Microeconomics” covers the incentives and decision making processes of firms and consumers and the resulting market equilibrium. We will look at the impact of different market environments on the market equilibrium and the welfare of an economy. We will also analyze why certain market environments can imply market failure and why certain regulatory measures can be applicable. We will furthermore evaluate the impact of different regulatory measures on the market equilibrium and the welfare of an economy. Finally, we will discuss recent economic developments and critically evaluate proposed policy measures in light of recent economic developments.
