Question:
The Covid-19 outbreak was the largest macroeconomic shock that economies experienced since the Global Financial Crisis in 2007/2008. The pandemic resulted in many Governments imposing lockdowns in order to protect the health of their citizens and mitigate the spread of the disease. The pandemic also caused Governments to implement a wide variety of economic stimulus and support packages. Your task in this essay is to:
- (1) Describe the macroeconomic impacts of Covid-19. For instance, this could include an analysis of how unemployment rate was affected, the underemployment rate, prices (i.e. inflation rates), real GDP etc. In answering this question, you can choose to include an analysis of how macroeconomic variables were impacted in several nations, or in just the one nation.
- (2) Explain the various ways in which a particular country of your choice (just one country) implemented stimulatory fiscal and monetary policies, and why they enacted these policies (i.e. what was the point of these Government interventions?).
- Introduction where you introduce the topic, what your essay will be about and what is included in the relevant sections in your essay.
- Body here you can be creative. However, the body of the essay should include for instance a section on the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic on macroeconomic outcomes (i.e. real GDP, unemployment etc.), and what sort of policies were implemented by Governments. You can include graphs, Figures, tables etc. to explain both the effects of Covid-19 and the response of Governments.
- Conclusion this is where you sum up what has been done in your essay you do not include any new ideas/arguments in the conclusion.
