This session supports Social Studies teachers grades 6-12.

Important Session Information:


***Lunch Provided*** Topic 1: CULTURE AND TRADE [There are long lasting effects in societies as they trade. The questions that for a long-time economists have asked are: Is there an optimal amount? Do we run the risk of all becoming the same and losing the regional uniqueness?] Topic 2: TAXATION AND PUBLIC POLICY [Taxes are everywhere. This unit analyzes the reason why taxes occur and how the public treasury is financed by overt and hidden taxes as well as the effect of taxes in entrepreneur’s decisions.] Topic 3: CONSTITUTIONAL POLITICAL ECONOMY [Why did the U.S. founders create a constitution that put limits on democratic decision making? What is the impact of them delegating powers between different branches of government?] Topic 4: ECONOMICS OF IMMIGRATION [Increasingly the world is a mobile place with people moving in and out of nations and migrating within those countries too. This module looks at factors of production with an emphasis on labor and human capital.]
