Studies
Main article: Economics
The study of economics are roughly divided into macroeconomics and
microeconomics.[38] Today, the range of fields of study examining the
economy revolves around the social science of economics,[39][40] but may
also include sociology,[41] history,[42] anthropology,[43] and geography.[44]
Practical fields directly related to the human activities involving production,
distribution, exchange, and consumption of goods and services as a whole are
business,[45] engineering,[46] government,[47] and health care.[48]
Macroeconomics is studied at the regional and national levels, and common
analyses include income and production, money, prices, employment,
international trade, and other issues.[49]

Notes
Sometimes spelled oeconomy or, with a ligature, œconomy in British English,
both are pronounced /iːˈkɒnəmi/. The term is ultimately derived from Greek
οἰκονομία, from οἶκος, "house", and νέμω, "to manage". In contemporary
times, however, the spelling that begins with œ has become obsolete and
rarely used, since it has been reduced to e in American English or separated as
oe in British English. From the eighteenth century, the spelling oeconomy
dropped the letter o, thus making economy the common spelling for the term.
