Provide an accurate summary section of each article, then must write an analytical section, and finally write a conclusion page comparing the four theorists and deciding the value of their contributions to the field of economics. The results will be (A) four one-page summaries, (B) four one-page analytical sections, (C) a one-page conclusion, and (D) the reference page.
