The following is a list of possible topics for your research papers. If you find another topic that you would like to do that is related to Economics just let me know and we can talk about it. I did say originally that all of your sources needed to be current within the last 5-10 years. However, some of these topics may require some sources older than that, but you should still have sources as current as you can possibly find. Begin looking on the internet and seeing what information you can find on topics that are of interest to you. You should have your topic chosen by September 29th which would be class after next.
