ECON 109 Introduction To Economics

An economic reform is a change in government policy that affects the economy. If you choose this option, you will write about a time that the government changed a law or set of laws, and how this change affected the country. Here is a suggested essay format:

  1. a) What was the reform? In other words, what exactly did the government do?
  2. b) What were the goals of the reform? What was the situation before the reform that the government wanted to change? Did the change work?
  3. c) Did the reform work? Did the reform solve the problems the government wanted to solve? Did the reform create new problems? Is there any way the reform could have been done better?

For this option, you will think of a change that you would like to see in your country.

Here is a suggested format if you choose this option:

  1. a) What exactly are you proposing?
  2. b) What is the problem right now?
  3. c) Why will your reform fix this problem? Will your reform create other problems?

d)What might someone who does not want your reform say against you, and how would you answer this person?
