International Economics: Theory and Policy (Paperback)

Paul R. Krugman and Maurice Obstfeld’s International Economics: Theory and Policy, published by Pearson, is a proven approach in which each half of the book leads with an intuitive introduction to theory and follows with self-contained chapters to discuss crucial policy applications. This eighth edition integrates the latest research, data, and policy in hot topics such as outsourcing, economic geography, trade and environment, financial derivatives, the subprime crisis, and China’s exchange rate policies. The book is divided into trade and finance sections. Within each half, fundamental theory chapters are followed by a series of application chapters that confront policy questions using the newest empirical work, data, and policy debates. Case Studies in the book illustrate theory using real-world applications and provide important historical context.
