Cíle předmětu
The aim of the course is to provide students with analytically justified new findings deepening and widening their knowledge gained within the study of the basic course of macroeconomics. Students will achieve a more accurate orientation of the theoretical basis of the field and a higher level of understanding of its importance as a general basis and background of study of other economic and non-economic courses in particular specializations of the study programme. The course aims at, through deeper analysis of the determinants of the equilibrium production and the IS-LM model, detailed understanding of the significance of economic theory for the formation of effective economic policies at national and regional level. An explanation of the microeconomic foundation of curves of aggregate demand and aggregate supply will help to understand the principle of the AD-AS model and the fluctuation of macro-economic parameters (unemployment, inflation). Special attention will be paid to the problems of long-term economic growth as the basis for the analysis of economic growth and development at the regional level. The aim of the analyses of theoretical findings and their application to practice is to form students' skills for macroeconomic analysis of the economic life of the company and to predict its development. Students will develop their skills of effective economic thinking, decision making, and behavior.
