You are required to pick a current (hot, widely discussed) economic event that relates to the material
Question:
You are required to pick a current ("hot", widely discussed) economic event that relates to the material (topic) we have covered or will cover in this course.
This paper has to show your ability to apply the concepts you have learned in this class to the analysis of current events.
Stay away from purely theoretical articles. Rather, find an article that is talking about today's (current) examples or applications of this topic.
Make sure to choose a topic from MICROeconomics, not MACROeconomics. For example, you can not write about such macroeconomic topics as unemployment, inflation, recession, exchange rates, immigration, etc.
You can't use price discrimination OR the division of labor as your concepts of interest.
Research and find a NEWS ARTICLE that covers the event you have chosen. You can use an article online or offline from any reputable source. Make sure to provide a reference and a full link to this article in your paper.
Then, supplement it with another 2-3 sources that relate to the same econ concept as your main news article of choice.
Do not choose Wikipedia, Investopedia, and other similar online resources as your articles for the paper.
Write a review of the article and integrate course concepts into your review.
Your paper should be structured as follows: Introduction (discuss which topic you chose and why it interested you) A Brief Summary of the Chosen Article Discussion of How This Article Relates to the Topic Discussed in the Class (this should be the largest part of your paper). Conclusion References
