After completing these readings, you will complete a brief write-up based on the sections assigned. Your job is to find a passage (~1-2 sentences) that you feel demonstrates an interesting or important economic principle, and to explain that principle (and its application in the reading) in one paragraph in a way that would make sense to someone who doesn’t know any economics. Imagine your (non-economist) grandmother is reading the same book as you, and asks you to explain the passage you choose. How would you explain it to her?
