Introduction<\/h2>\n

If macroeconomics had \u2018keywords\u2019 they would be: GDP, unemployment, inflation, and interest rates. GDP for example is a term that will run through all Modules of the course, and the others will make multiple appearances as we define them, understand them, and connect them to the entire economy.<\/p>\n
