Overview
The Economics collection has been developed based on the courses taught at the University, but it also reflects social issues and topical subjects related to the field. The collection includes highly specialised books in English, French and German alongside introductory resources and more general material.
We are currently developing the collection to include more resources on macroeconomics, econometrics, the impact of the COVID-19 crisis on the global economy and the relationship between economics and public institutions. For more information about finance, please see the dedicated subject guide for this discipline.
Some of the older documents in the Economics collection can also be found in The Stacks.
