Slides connected to the first part (applications of specie-flow model) is on the semester page. The second part of the lecture Instead will be related to chapter 7 (traded- and non-traded goods) in my book instead of chapter 8 (PPP etc), which will be treated next week. There will be no slide distributed in advance for the traded-non-traded part.
Rødseth will lecture also in week 14 (the first week after easter) at the usual time and place (Tuesday 14.15 - 16 in Auditorium 4.
A new version of the slides for lectures 8 and 9 has been uploaded. No substantial changes, but typos have been corrected and slides edited slightly.
NOTE CHANGE OF DATES: The seminar dates have been updated. See "Time and place" for the new schedule. Tord
Problem set for the second seminar week has been uploaded. It is quite long, and we will not have time to go through everything in the seminar (i.e., you should prepare well by working on it in the lecture-free week).
NOTE CHANGE OF LOCATION: The monday seminar (8:15-10:00) will take place in Aud. 6, ES (not GS as previously announced). Tord
The most relevant problems to Chapter 3 in OR are 3.1-3.4. Tord
Contact students are Mathias Dahle Bryde-Erichsen (m.d.bryde-erichsen@sv.uio.no) and Marte Grønvold (mg@student.sv.uio.no). If there are issues with the course that you don't want to go directly to any of the lecturers with, let the contact students know.
Slide #11 in slide set to lecture 2 has the wrong graph. Corrected slides are now uploaded. Tord
Obstfeld and Rogoff's book contains many interesting exercises, although some are quite difficult. See "Course information" for a link to their homepage where you can find solution manuals. I recommend that you solve most of the exercises to Chapter 1, at least 2, 3, 6 and 7. For chapter 2, it is 1-3 that are useful. Tord
