Presenting new and innovative perspectives on macroeconomics at the
national and international levels, the editors bring together contributions on
a wide range of topics including: current issues of globalization; transitional
economies; inequality; unemployment; national and international debt; and the
relationship of macroeconomic policies to the environment. The contributors

macroeconomic policy in the US and Europe, as well as in developing and
transitional economies. Themes explored include: disequilibrium in the macroeconomy: analysis of
the roots of instability and crisis in national and global systems; the
evolution of macroeconomic institutions to stabilize and guide economic growth;
the paradoxes of globalization, the dangers of unrestricted financial flows,
and the impacts of globalization on national institutional coherence; macro and
institutional strategies for the transitional economies of Russia and Eastern
Europe; distributional and equity issues, including employment, housing, and
homelessness; the impact of macroeconomic policy and debt on the environment;
long-term growth and its relationship to well-being and environmental
sustainability. This collection is a valuable resource for researchers and
students of macroeconomics, presenting numerous case studies and examples which
bring to life some of the theoretical debates that will determine the future of
macroeconomics. Policy professionals in a variety of fields including politics,
political economy, and international relations will also find much of interest
in this enlightening volume.
