| THE COURSE COVERS SOME CLASSICAL THEMES OF MICROECONOMICS AND ILLUSTRATES THE BASIC ANALYTICAL TOOLS USED IN THE DISCIPLINE TO STUDY THESE TOPICS. THE COURSE IS DIVIDED IN TWO PARTS. THE FIRST PART IS DEVOTED TO THE ANALYSIS OF INDIVIDUAL CHOICES UNDER UNCERTAINTY, AND TO THE PRESENTATION OF THE MAIN CONCEPTS OF GAME THEORY THAT ARE USED TO STUDY STRATEGIC INTERACTIONS AMONG ECONOMIC AGENTS. THE SECOND PART OF THE COURSE PRESENTS SOME OF THE MAIN ECONOMIC MODELS USING THE ANALYTICAL TOOLS INTRODUCED IN THE FIRST PART OF THE COURSE. THE COURSE AIMS TO PROVIDE STUDENTS WITH A SOLID BACKGROUND IN THE ANALYSIS OF MICROECONOMIC PHENOMENA. STUDENTS WILL LEARN HOW TO USE THE BASIC CONCEPTUAL AND ANALYTIC TOOLS NECESSARY TO STUDY INDIVIDUAL CHOICES WITHIN REAL MARKETS AND ECONOMIC ISTITUTIONS, AND TO INTERPRET SOME OF THE MAIN STYLIZED FACTS FEATURED BY THESE ISTITUTIONS. ECONOMIC APPLICATIONS PRESENTED IN THE SECOND PART OF THE COURSE WILL ALSO ENABLE STUDENTS TO CRITICALLY ASSESS THE POSITIVE AND THE NORMATIVE PROPERTIES OF SOME OF THE MAIN ECONOMIC ISTITUTIONS THAT CONTRIBUTE TO DETERMINE PRIVATE AND SOCIAL INCENTIVES OF ECONOMIC AGENTS. |
