You are required to write an essay on one of the two following topics.
Topic 1: Many economic historians believe that good institutions are the key to modern economic growth. For the UK, we might look to the institutional changes associated with the sealing of the Magna Carta in 1215, 1216, and 1225 and the Glorious Revolution of 1688 for evidence in support of this belief. Your task for topic is to describe the long-run institutional change in any country, as it relates to economic development. You may look at any country that has been economically successful (at least for some period; Argentina offers the interesting case study of early success followed by relative decline through the 20th Century).
For a framework for the essay, I suggest that you read either Structure and Change by Douglass C. North or The Rise and Decline of Nations by Mancur Olson. You will need to do your own digging for country specific material but talk to me if you are having trouble.
Topic 2: Reasonable people have variously argued that the British Industrial Revolution was not exclusively British, not primarily industrial, and, on further reflection, not a revolution after all. Regardless of the merits of these arguments, it is clear that Britain underwent significant social and economic change between 1780 and 1860. Your task for this topic is to trace out the changes in Britain in any one of the following:
- The composition and structure of the family, including where they lived, who did what jobs and under what conditions. You may respond to this topic narrowly by considering the household economy, or broadly by considering demographic change and rural to urban migration.
- The organisation of industry. The focus of this topic is on the organisation of firms and industries and the way in which business was conducted rather than the specifics of the products they produced. You may approach this topic from the perspective of corporate finance and examine how businesses were financed.
- The standard of living. We are all beneficiaries of the Industrial Revolution. It is not clear that those who lived through it benefited. So, who did benefit, and from when?
- How did the agricultural sector change during the Industrial Revolution? Who farmed what land and under what (employment or other) conditions? Did agriculture become more commercial?
For each of these there are relevant (and fully referenced) readings in The Economic History of Britain since 1700, Volume 1, 2nd edition (Floud and McCloskey eds). Please also look through the paper list for the Abstracts for further readings.
You are better off writing in detail about a small number of important papers than superficially about a large number. So, pay attention to authors – you should know who the main contributors are in the field that you are writing about, and have used their most important works. In this vein, pay attention to the authors of the Floud and McCloskey chapters.
In addition, each of these topics can be divided into many sub-topics. For example, the debate over the standard of living can be divided (non-exhaustively) into: changes in real wages; changes in life expectancy and adult height; changes in the distribution of income; and the impact of the rise of the welfare state, including public education. You are free to define your topic narrowly or broadly; run ideas past me if you are not sure.
You may write on any of the above topics for a country other than Britain during their transition to modern economic growth. But you are then responsible for finding your starting material. I will help, so talk to me if you would like to write on a different country but be aware that there is the risk that the necessary material simply isn’t there.
Structure and Formatting
Length: 2,500 words, plus or minus 10% (you should be struggling to stay below the upper bound, rather than above the lower bound).
Font: Calibri, Cambria, Arial, Tahoma, and Times New Roman are all fine (as are the Mac equivalents).
Font size: 11 or 12 point (10 or 11 for Tahoma).
Line spacing: 1.5 or 2.
Referencing: The faculty officially requires APA, so that is always acceptable. I prefer the style used in Floud and McCloskey. It has some overlap with APA but is more flexible for in-text citations and easier on the reader. And because this a history paper, you may also use footnoted references (c.f. The Economic History Review).
General: For any other formatting concerns, please consult the Chicago Manual of Style. The library has print copies and online access. If you are using it for the first time, the print version will probably make more sense as the Manual has a section numbering system that works more naturally in a print book than on a website.
