THE MAIN AIM OF THE COURSE IS A DEEPER DEVELOPMENT OF THE BASIC KNOWLEDGE ACQUIRED BY THE STUDENTS IN THE PREVIOUS INSTITUTIONAL COURSES OF MICRO AND MACROECONOMICS, THROUGH THE ANALYSIS OF THE INTERCONNECTIONS BETWEEN ECONOMIC THEORY AND THE EVOLUTION OF THE REAL ECONOMY. THEREFORE THE MAIN ECONOMIC FACTS (CONCERNING ITALY, THE EUROPEAN AND NON-EUROPEAN COUNTRIES) OCCURRED IN THE CURRENT YEAR (SUCH AS THE EVOLUTION OF GDP. HOUSEHOLD CONSUMPTION, EMPLOYMENT, PRICE LEVEL, DISPOSABLE INCOME, PUBLIC FINANCE, INTERNATIONAL TRADE AND SO ON) WILL BE INVESTIGATED. THE ANALYSIS OF THE EVOLUTION OF THE ECONOMY AND OF THE POLICY MEASURES WILL BE BASICALLY FOUNDED ON OFFICIAL DOCUMENTS, SUCH AS THE ANNUAL REPORT OF THE BANK OF ITALY AND OTHER REPORTS OF GOVERNMENT INSTITUTIONS.
