This book offers a structured, pedagogical analysis of the main foundations of macroeconomics, coherently articulating the neoclassical, Keynesian and IS-LM approaches. It aims to provide students with a progressive understanding of the mechanisms determining global economic equilibrium, through the study of the relationships between production, consumption, investment, employment and interest rates. The neoclassical approach emphasizes the role of markets and price flexibility in the optimal allocation of resources and the achievement of full employment. Keynesian analysis, on the other hand, stresses the importance of aggregate demand and the possibility of an underemployment equilibrium, justifying the intervention of economic policies. The IS-LM model formalizes the interaction between the goods and money markets, emphasizing the central role of the interest rate in macroeconomic equilibrium. The book adopts an applied approach, combining summary sheets, MCQs and corrected exercises to reinforce theoretical knowledge and develop analytical skills. It is a comprehensive tool for preparing for exams and mastering macroeconomic concepts.
