The course of Economic Policy deals with the theories of the public intervention in the economic system through the actions of the economic and financial institutions and gives to the students an immediate view of the decision processes which conjugate the economic instruments to the micro and macroeconomic policy objectives of social welfare that the Parliament indicates to the governments. This course also introduces to the appropriate analytical methods as well as to the potentialities and to the limits of the main economic models which offer a rational support to the economic policy decisions.
