Therefore, theoretical approaches developed to address the economic behavior of domestic and international goods, services, factors (labor, money, capital, technology, etc.) and foreign exchange markets of economic actors (consumers, producers, government, central bank, international institutions etc.) and the methods of empirical testing of these theories can present important differences even today, even in relation to the recent past.
