How Governments Manage Their Economies
Muhtasari
The previous topic gave a government four targets and showed how easily they pull against each other. This one hands over the tools. There are three of them, they work in completely different ways and on completely different timescales, and choosing the wrong one for the problem is how a government makes an economy worse while trying to help it.
You will learn what fiscal policy is and how a government's own spending and taxation move income and expenditure across the whole economy, what a balanced budget means and what follows from running a surplus or a deficit. You will see how monetary policy works through a single interest rate, and why it is the tool of choice against inflation. You will meet supply-side policies, which are slower but change what the economy can produce rather than how much it currently buys. And you will close on the specific policies aimed at externalities, which is the point where this unit rejoins market failure.
