Outline (in English)

This course provides an introduction to (1) the Japan's macroeconomic characteristics, (2) the Japan's current economic issues, and (3) the basic economic principles and methods. After providing a brief history of the Japanese economy and the basic analytical tools of economics, it mainly focuses on Japan's labor markets, financial markets, corporate finance and capital investments, international transactions, and economic policies from the 1980s onward. By the end of the semester, you are expected to be able to utilize the theoretical and empirical tools practiced in this class to generate practical policy recommendations for Japan’s major economic problems.

The standard preparation and review time for this class is 2 hours each, but the instructor strongly recommend students to spend relatively more time on review and less time on preparation.

All slides and materials distributed in class will be posted on the class support system.
