Advanced Lectures In Quantitative Economics

Advanced Lectures in Quantitative Economics

Advanced Lectures in Quantitative Economics summarizes some of the efforts of a second-phase program for first-rate candidates with a Master's degree in economics who wish to continue with a doctoral degree in quantitative economics. This book is organized into three main topics—macroeconomics, microeconomics, and econometrics. This text specifically discusses the Neo-Keynesian macroeconomics in an open economy, international coordination of monetary policies under alternative exchange-rate regimes, and prospects for global trade imbalances. The post-war developments in labor economics, introduction to overlapping generation models, and measurement of expectations and direct tests of the REH are also elaborated. This monograph likewise covers the dynamic econometric modeling of decisions under uncertainty and fundamental bordered matrix of linear estimation. This publication is a good reference for students and specialists interested in quantitative economics.

This book contains a series of lectures recently given to researchers and students in quantitative economics by an international group of distinguished scholars. The topics covered are at the forefront of recent developments of research in economics and econometrics. The book is divided into three sections: Microeconomics, Macroeconomics and Econometrics. The section on Microeconomics contains chapters on the economics of destitution and an overview of general equilibrium theory with incomplete markets. The section on Macroeconomics contains chapters on the new endogenous growth theory and the microeconomic underpinning of dynamic international macroeconomic models. The section on Econometrics contains chapters on the rapidly expanding literature for GARCH models of volatility, empirical analysis of time series and asymptotic estimation theory for nonlinear econometric models. This will be essential reading for graduate students and researchers in economics, econometrics and finance.
