Research Paper Assignment
Go to the common assessment on Blackboard. Each student gets a different country.
No one in the same section can have the same country. For example, maybe you choose Bulgaria, and your friend chooses Brazil.
Countries will be chosen in class on a first come, first assigned basis.
If you cannot choose a country on your own, a name will be given to you.
Now go to tradingeconomics website or to some other website to get your economic data. You will be writing up a report on the economy of your chosen country and what you recommend for fiscal and monetary policies for your country to improve their economic situation.
General items to include and discuss:
1) You should discuss something about the economy of your chosen country.
2) Discuss your economic data you have collected for the past 10 years. (could be a longer period or slightly shorter if you have data availability issues)
3) You should discuss what they have been doing regarding economic performance and problems. What has gone well, what is bad.
4) Discuss what has happened in your chosen country regarding COVID-19. Has your country been severely impacted? This could have an impact on what you recommend short-term versus longer term.
5) Discuss economic policy over about the last 10 years (maybe 20 years, you decide).
6) Has the country been adopting sound economic policies, should they make changes?
7) What do you recommend for future policy? Discuss fiscal policy, monetary policy, and any other economic policies that you may think are relevant.
