Use a principle, or principles, discussed in the course to explain some pattern of events or behaviour that you personally have observed.
Please do not include too many complex terms. Imagine youare talking to a relative or friend who has no background in economics. This is not a dissertation; you are not expected to do a substantial amount of research in support of your argument, although a relevant fact or two might help make your argument more convincing. Your topic does not necessarily have to be ‘important', but please try to choose something interesting. A really successful assignment will be one that begins with a really interesting question and then uses an economic principle or principles to construct a plausible answer.
