printer friendly pageECON 226: Topics in US and international economic history
This graduate course emphasizes theoretical and empirical methods for studying long-run economic change, centering around key challenges facing American society today: technological change, barriers to economic opportunity, environmental change, and political polarization. Drawing on historical evidence and economic analysis, we will investigate how societies have addressed these challenges and what lessons the past provides for the future. While the evidence will span various periods of American history, the course will not cover those periods chronologically but rather focus on critical analysis of specific questions and mechanisms of change. Enrollment limited to graduate students.
