Dude the international division of labour was fucking specialisation of labour you retards. It's about comparable advantage. I don't know what you guys are on about.

Sorta, but you didn't really need to cite specialisation of labour, so much as international division of labour which is precisely what the short answer question is asking. But dude:

>says it's about comparable advantage
>doesn't realise such a term doesn't exist
>realises it's comparative
>realises the irony of his claim

I thought I went okay, but man, after reading some of the comments on here!

I think I got 18 for MC (forgot to count reserve assets, rip), which I'm alright with, and the short answers and essays were okay, so I hope I managed to write some decent answers for those.

On the bright side, it's done! Well done everyone!

How were we suppose to answer that NAIRU question? I didn't know what to write and only briefly knew what the NAIRU was.

You use your knowledge of the philips curve and/or the short term inverse relationship between unemployment and inflation.

Since the question asked for 'policy implications' I said that macro policies would not lower NAIRU, but only Micro do
me too, i said using macro policies only reduce u/e in the short term, but then just increase inflation. therefore mer msut be implemented blah

Zzzz I think I woulda got 4/5 cos I didn't explain NAIRU.- because in my answer I assumed we all knew what NAIRU was. Stupid mistakes ffs.

This is correct. You had to state that macro policies would lead only to increased inflation and a short term decrease in unemployment whilst micro policies will bring down the structural level of unemployment :)
