These challenges encompass critical areas such as pensions, debt, income distribution, and fiscal sustainability, all of which are further exacerbated by the phenomenon of demographic transition and aging. In response to these complex issues, this graduate textbook offers a comprehensive and cutting-edge approach. It employs state-of-the-art macroeconomic tools, firmly grounded in a robust microfoundation and supported by empirical evidence. Unlike traditional partial-equilibrium analysis found in textbooks on public economics, the concept of general equilibrium is introduced to account for compensating or amplifying side-effects of economic policy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTo facilitate the understanding and application of these concepts, the textbook includes comprehensive GAUSS and MATLAB computer code, as well as teaching material (slides). These resources are readily available for download from the author's homepage, making it an invaluable resource for students, scholars, and policymakers alike.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBy delving into these pressing challenges and employing advanced macroeconomic tools, this textbook aims to provide a comprehensive and up-to-date understanding of public economics. It equips readers with the skills and knowledge necessary to address the complex economic problems facing society today and contribute to the development of effective policies for a more prosperous and sustainable future.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\\n                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 784g\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 162 x 241 x 30 (mm)\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9783030009878\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1st ed. 2019\\n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Burkhard Heer","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44103217807610,"sku":"9783030009878","price":91.62,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/d9b1fcec87aab3b2974e2138a58a11a5.jpg?v=1625969742","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/public-economics-the-macroeconomic-perspective","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
