Real World Macro

Dollars & Sense Magazine

Dollars&Sense

The nineteenth edition of Real World Macro is a lively and thought-provoking supplement to introductory and intermediate macro-economics textbooks.  Real World Macro asks the questions that standard textbooks largely neglect: What's so great about growth?  Is unemployment "natural"?  What's so new about the New Economy?  Along with covering the basics -- monetary and fiscal policy, productivity and investment, inflation and unemployment -- Real World Macro includes a chapter on major controversies in macroeconomics, such as the legacy of Keynesianism in the United States and the basics of Marxist economic theory.  Real World Macro's readable articles are drawn from the pages of Dollars & Sense, the bimonthly magazine of popular economics.  Dollars & Sense also publishes Real World Micro, Current Economic Issues, Real World Globalization, Real World Banking, The Environment in Crisis, Introduction to Political Economy, and Unlevel Playing Fields: Understanding Wage Inequality and Discrimination.

<p>After all the gains of the civil rights and women's movements, why are black people and women still faring so poorly when it comes to wages, employment levels, and the distribution of jobs? Unlevel Playing Fields tackles this critical question by presenting two contrasting economic theories -- neoclassical and political economy -- and showing how each theory explains discrimination and inequality in the labor market. Each chapter concludes with discussion questions and suggested readings. The authors also offer some practical proposals for altering the status quo.</p>
