Description
What an unforgettable start we are off to in the 2020s: A severe public health crisis and the ensuing
economic uncertainty, a contentious presidential election, and the fastest inflation the US
has seen in 40 years have all made it a time unlike any other that today’s college students are likely to
have experienced. Questions of equity, inclusion, and economic justice are on the minds of students
as well as educators. The seventh edition of Introduction to Macroeconomics from BVT Publishing
attempts to facilitate these conversations, both explicitly and implicitly. This edition brings in new and
differing points of view on these issues as well as alternative and heterodox perspectives from the vast
and expanding field of economics. In a particular way, this edition attempts to address the need for
more diversity in the field of economics. It does this by highlighting people from diverse backgrounds,
both in small ways (such as in photographs and in-text examples) and in more obvious ways (such as
by spotlighting the work of women economists and economists of color).
Today, both students and instructors rely on the internet as their primary source of information about current economic events. They still need a good textbook to provide a framework for organizing all the information that is available, but that textbook needs to mesh with the material available from online news sources, blogs, and social media.
Both authors have experience writing blogs and for other online sources. They have worked hard to make the language more active with shorter sentences, shorter paragraphs, and shorter chapters. The result is that this latest edition of the book reads less like a series of journal articles and more like something students might actually want to read.
In addition to a more inviting presentation, much of the content is new, including new case studies and examples throughout the book. Topics range from cryptocurrencies (are they money?) to modern monetary theory to COVID-19 and the fiscal policy response to it.
Finally, this edition recognizes the fact that instructors no longer rely solely on blackboards and photocopied handouts as teaching aids. Most instructors now regularly use slideshows, smartboards, and videos in class along with course websites to help students with their studying between classes. One important aid to e-teaching and e-learning is a complete set of PowerPoint slides, which include all of the graphs and tables from each chapter, plus other relevant material that is available as a supplement to Introduction to Macroeconomics from BVT.
