Discover the Fundamentals of Microeconomics

Microeconomics focuses on analyzing individual agents and markets, their interactions, and the outcomes of interactions.

Macroeconomics analyzes the economy as a system, including the interactions between production, consumption, saving, and investment, as well as factors affecting it.

The distinctions within economics include positive economics (describing 'what is') versus normative economics (advocating 'what ought to be'), economic theory versus applied economics, and rational economics versus behavioural economics.
