It is the second-most populous country, the seventh-largest country by land area, and the most populous democracy in the world. - WikipediaLearn about the economy here, on this course!What makes this course unusual:1. A very heavy emphasis on Instructor interaction - do NOT just watch videos...join in! Bring your knowledge of Economics in India!2. Current workbooks (July 2021)3. Current assessment of Economic policy in India (July 2021)4. No economic knowledge assumed and yet we immediately engage in discussion5. Rapid learning as the Economics is all current and supported by references.6. The Oxford Diploma (free) on meeting the criteria7. Two textbooks and two workbooks are included - everything you need! (Textbooks and workbooks on Economics are free) Therefore you will also learn core Microeconomics and Macroeconomics.This course is split into five sections:1. The current state of the Indian economy2. Provocative points - a series of lectures designed to stimulate discussion3. The Indian economy in the short and medium term future - under the pandemic4. The views of experts5. The Economy of India in 2024 - and the impact of the war in UkraineThroughout the course economic theory and practical examples are explored. We look at:Impact of the war in Ukraine on the Indian economyIndian economy: 2022Unemployment - demand deficient in particularBudget deficitInflation - the impact of oilHealthcare - a disaster?Infrastructure - promises keptEconomic growth - and recessionExports as an injection - but what of Bangladesh?Agriculture - labour intensiveNMPOf course I am hoping that students from India in particular, will join in the many discussions. The course asks questions; homework is set. We look at the work of current economists, current data (expressed in charts) and economic forecasts. No attempt is made to 'judge' merely to explore the situation as it now is, how it is projected - and then ask for comments.The course is several hours long but not so long that you'll never finish! The homework too is such that you're encouraged to research and then report back via the Q/A - hence the title 'Let's talk about - Economics Economics and then more Economics!'So if you are interested in:a. Economicsb. Global economicsc. The economy in Indiad. Microeconomics (as I also mention theory)e. Macroeconomics (as we deal with inflation, growth etc)f. Anything and everything Economics (as this course is developing)BUT: If you do not like participating, do not like homework, do not like being asked questions - then this course is NOT for you. But if you want really current information, in-depth discussions, examination of the economy in India - then enrol!
