Macroeconomic model
A macroeconomic model is an analytical tool designed to describe the operation of the problems of economy of a country or a region. These models are usually designed to examine the comparative statics and dynamics of aggregate quantities such as the total amount of goods and services produced, total income earned, the level of employment of productive resources, and the level of prices.

"The different classes of models have a lot to learn from each other, but the goal of full integration has proven counterproductive. No model can be all things to all people."
