Lectures and readings focus on specific topics and themes which although following a basically chronological progression, will not present a continuous narra- tive summary of the subject. In addition to that book, Follett's Bookstore also stocks copies of the volume edited by Nash, entitled Issues in American Economic History, which con- tains the majority of the supplemental reading assignments for the course, the remainder of which are on course reserve in the Library. The prerequisites for this course are Economic 201 and 202, and a knowledge of economic concepts and analysis at that level will be assumed. In addition to the term paper requirement there will be three required in-class examinations.
Students are responsible for all lecture material and assigned readings.
No form of cheating, plagiarism or any other violation of the code of acade- mic conduct will be tolerated, and any instance will result in failure of the course, ay least. Course Outline, Reading Assignments, and Examination Schedule 1. Nash, ch 2 5. Lebergott, ch 8-9 8. Nash, ch 7 9.
