   Abstract:
   The history of modern macroeconomics begins when much older economic questions were reclassified by Ragnar Frisch under the headings 'microeconomics' and 'macroeconomics.' The history of macroeconomics related here is importantly a history of the relationships of macroeconomics to microeconomics, and econometrics. The emphasis is on the development of macroeconomics as an interplay among economic theory, empirical investigation, and public policy.
