Old notes


Sofia Vale and I wrote many chapters, which gave place to two never-finished textbooks. They were used to teach undergraduate courses in economic growth and business cycles at ISCTE-IUL over many years. They are written in Portuguese, and we used graphics and numerical simulations as much as possible. The chapters about growth need just a minor update, and the job can be finished for good. We got highly dissatisfied with the text about business cycles, which needs to be entirely rewritten to make any sense according to the development of modern macroeconomics over the last twenty years or so.
