Product Description

As national economies have become more integrated through trade and capital flows, international economics has come to be central to any economics curriculum. This new edition of a classic introduction to the study of the topic has been designed to reflect this development in the economics curriculum. The 5th edition has been thoroughly revised to take into account the latest issues and controversies. New issues covered include: *New developments in regional trade blocks *International Public Finance and trade policy *Financial derivatives *The Asian crisis *European Monetary Union Accessible to students with only introductory economics, this text breaks new ground in explaining the intermediate micro and macro tools necessary for a rigorous understanding of trade and finance. International Economics 5th Edition will thus enable the student to apply the set of theoretical tools necessary to explaining current events and policy proposals. A variety of real world examples are employed to illustrate the relevance and policy implications of key economic concepts. Written in a clear and readable manner, International Economics 5th Edition includes a range of features designed to aid student learning and class presentation: a statement of learning objectives at the beginning of each chapter, questions for study and review, suggestions for further reading, case studies and exhibits, a glossary of key concepts, and lists of internet links to provide further information about fundamental economic issues.
