POLITICA ECONOMICA
(objectives)
The course aims to tackle macroeconomic issues that characterize the performance of the national and international economic systems. The aim of the course is to provide tools to assess the state's role in influencing the economy in the short, medium and long term. Particular emphasis will be given to fiscal, monetary, growth and employment policies, whose objectives, tools and limits are studied in depth.
1. KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING The course aims to provide basic theoretical knowledge needed to allow the student to independently understand the action exercised by economic policy. This knowledge will be acquired mainly through lectures, reading targeted texts and participating in thematic seminars.
2. ABILITY TO APPLY KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING The student must be able to apply the methodological and theoretical knowledge acquired through the lectures to the interpretation of issues in which the balance and stability of economic systems is at stake. These specific skills will be developed mainly through the study of case studies and classroom debate.
3. AUTONOMY OF JUDGMENT The autonomy of judgment is built by means of the technical mastery of the tools, and of the understanding of the reasons that make distinct approaches bring different solutions in different contexts. This is made through lessons that encourage discussion and stimulate confrontation.
4. COMMUNICATION SKILLS The student should acquire the ability to expose and present with mastery of language and adequate analytical skills the problems and topics covered by the course. The tutorials, focused on critical reading and on the interpretation of press articles, will aim precisely to foster this ability.
