Aggregate Macroeconomics Map: History, Schools, Theories, Models, and Application
Concepts
The macro textbook. Output, prices, labor, money, trade, policy, and the mechanisms that connect them.
Schools
Ten traditions side by side. Filter by stance on fiscal, monetary, and market-clearing assumptions.
Models
Theory-based, empirical, DSGE, and agent-based families. Pick by the question you need answered.
Policy
Fiscal, monetary, and trade policy tools. See how each school thinks about intervention, stimulus, and stabilization.
History
Timeline of macro eras, crises, and policy turns from pre-Keynes to the post-2008 rethink.
Lab
24 guided pipelines across 4 labs. Forecast, estimate, simulate, and combine on 450+ indicators.
Macroeconomics
The study of economies tracking aggregates such as GDP, unemployment rates, and inflation to understand national economic health, system, and behavior.
From your individual decisions
to the whole country
In Microeconomics, we track individual economic players' decisions: pricing goods, producing output, gauging demand, hiring labor.
Zooming out
we see how each economic player becomes a vital organ in an economic system
How the system connects
The Economic Circuit
Aggregate outcomes are produced by institutions, not abstractions. Hover or click any node to trace how money, labor, and goods flow through the system.
Hover to preview connections. Click any node to see its role, signals, and flow channels.

Clustering these players further becomes Aggregate Demand and Supply
Aggregate Demand & Supply
AD and SRAS intersect at equilibrium. Output is at potential, and prices are stable.
Stable
Stable
Vital Signs Monitor
Output, prices, and employment are the three vitals that tell you whether the macro circuit is expanding, overheating, or stalling.
These vitals don't sit still.
They cycle.
The Business Cycle
Vitals don't hold steady. They oscillate. That oscillation is the business cycle. Hover any phase to learn more.
At its core, the business cycle is complex, unpredictable, and irregular, making it notoriously hard to forecast. Explaining fluctuations in aggregate economic activity is a primary concern of macroeconomics. Various theories and schools have been proposed to explain them.
Many doctors, one patient...
Macroeconomics has competing schools of thought. Each diagnoses the same economy differently. Select a policy to see who agrees and who fights.

Macroeconomic schools didn't
emerge overnight
Each crisis reshaped what economists believed. Each school was forged in failure.
