TAKE-HOME MIDTERM ECO54 SPRING 2008 UDAYAN ROY



There are five questions below, each worth 10 points. You need to answer any four (4) questions. If you answer all five questions, I will give you credit for only the first four.

The whole point of giving a take-home test is to get you to do substantial library research. The depth of your research and the extent of your bibliography will heavily influence my grading decisions.

Your answers should cover at least eight (8) double-spaced pages, not counting the bibliography. They should follow the numbering scheme of the questions: For example, if a question is subdivided into parts (a), (b), and (c), then so should your answer.

I will, of course, examine your answers in detail for signs of plagiarism.Plagiarism: Students must submit all their written work in electronic form as well as on paper. I will use plagiarism detection Web sites such as http://www.mydropbox.com and http://www.turnitin.com and make a rigorous attempt to detect plagiarism. Students are therefore encouraged to clear their writing with these Web sites before submitting it to me. Please see the Universitys Students' Guide to Preventing and Avoiding Plagiarism at http://www.liu.edu/CWIS/CWP/library/exhibits/plagstudent.htm for further clarifications. Needless to say, any plagiarism in my course will be punished in an extremely cruel and heartless manner.





1. (a) Summarize the central beliefs of the Mercantilist School.

Discuss how the film "Metropolis" deals with some of the most important issues of modernity: the relationship between men and technology (think about the fact that film as a genre relies on technology) and the class system. In order to make your argument, describe and analyze specific scenes in the film.

Examine several social groups or organizations to which you belong or have belonged (school, government, family, religious (catholic), American Heart Association, International Association of Administrative Professionals, American Bowling Congress). Prepare a 600 to 950-word paper explaining the role of the group and the social functions it supports or promotes. Be sure to define the groups that you select in terms of primary and secondary classifications. If you can deem the group can a reference group, consider how this group affects or has affected your life personally and/or professionally? Consider Webers five characteristics of an ideal bureaucracy and suggest which (if any) of the characteristics are directly applicable to your organization. From personal experience, examine the positive and negative ramifications of operating within a bureaucratic structure.

For this project students will read Stanley Elkins Slavery and then write a comparative analysis of Elkins historical interpretation of slavery with James McPhersons interpretation in Ordeal by Fire. Your analysis should address the following questions:

1. What are the points of agreement and disagreement between the two authors, Stanley Elkins and James McPherson, concerning the institution of slavery?
2. Specifically, what influence did institutions like the church have on the character of American slavery?
3. How much control did the masters have over their slaves? Did the slaves exercise any autonomy over their own lives?
4. Did American devotion to limited government and laissez faire capitalism ameliorate the brutality of slavery?
5. What evidence does each author use to support his arguments, and is the evidence anecdotal or quantifiable?
6. Which author more accurately describes antebellum American slavery? Why?

The paper (not including the cover page) should be a minimum of 1250 words in length, double spaced in 12 point Arial font. APA guidelines should be followed.

Here are some thoughts to help you shape your Project 1 work:

I am looking for about 12-15 paragraphs which show a thorough knowledge of the base text and present it in a logical way... here is how:

1 paragraph biographical information about Elkins - dig hard find clues showing biases agenda the times he wrote and what he was about.

1 paragraph with the same information about McPherson.

3 paragraphs one for each of Elkins' primary theories +++ Hint do not write about them as if you own them... write with a clue about how you will unpack it... i.e., In Elkins' (1976), strongest argument he wrote.... or According to Elkins' (1976), theory..., which was a bit of a stretch.

++This hint is critical++

3 paragraphs about how McPherson covered those areas as you addressed as Elkins' main theories and only that much of McPherson - you need not try to address his whole text in your paper.

3 paragraphs about contrasts of the two works within that vein.

1 paragraph of your own conclusions.

1 page of References supporting your citations.

Typically, the text by Doctor Stanley Elkins (1976), presents the most difficulties and challenges for students. Below are some notes on making the reading of his work a bit easier.

1. Read an entire section without looking at the footnotes. Then go back and re-read the same section, stopping for the footnotes as necessary. For many who have never previously read a highly scholarly text or a dissertation that has been turned into a text book, they will find the frequency and length of the footnotes to be a stumbling block to comprehension. Do not let that be an obstruction, but use them for clarification or expansion of an idea.

2. Before you begin reading the book, familiarize yourself with it read the contents page in the front to see the names of the chapters and see how the book is organized.

3. Skim over the index; look for familiar names, concepts or ideas with which you are familiar.

4. Before you read beyond the introduction chapter (which should be read), briefly research Elkins, see when he wrote the text, who his intended audience was, in short find out what were his context, biases and element.

5. Watch out for a practice called periodization meaning Elkins blended or jumped from era to era without informing the reader to make his arguments and theories seem more clear and to work better for him. That can do several things, but primarily it can be confusing, it can obscure issues or other relevant information from the reader, or principally it miscasts the information for and advances a specific goal. Watch carefully for those jumps and ask yourself why when you hit one.

6. Watch out for quick and easy generalities and vagaries particularly in relation to the church that is a troubling generalization of European state churches and the Roman Catholic Churchs power prior to 1800. Hint there is no the church in the United States, that is a founding and basic principle keep that in mind when reading and when writing up project 1.

Finally, given the challenges and questions that will arise with the Elkins text, it is valuable and prompts (or at least should prompt) discussion of several issues related to antebellum America. Chapter IV (6) Choices is one of the key chapters in the book and most revealing it may be a place to start after the introduction and then go back to the beginning. That particular chapter makes the book worth having for reference.

There are faxes for this order.

1.The neo-classical growth model predicts long run conditional convergence among economies. Write a concise essay in which you explain why the neo-classical growth model may predict divergence in the short run, and why even long run convergence is conditional.

2. It is not so much that the British economy slowed down after 1860 as that other economies grew more rapidly, and that is what accounts for late nineteenth century economic convergence.
Do you agree with this statement? Why or why not?
3. Williamson claims that trans-Atlantic labour migration was an important cause of post-1860 real wage convergence. However, it is much more likely that the unprecedented movements of labour we observe during this time period were nothing more than an effect of the economic convergence that was underway.
Do you agree with this statement? Why or why not?
4. The neo-classical growth model emphasizes two determinants of intensive growth (ie. growth in output per person). Write a concise essay in which you explain the operation of the neo-classical growth model and the role played by the two key determinants of growth within the model.
5. According to Williamson our standard neo-classical economic objective should lead us to study real wage convergence, rather than output per person convergence. Write a concise essay in which you describe exactly what is meant by the term modern economic growth, how this type of growth is linked to the standard neo-classical economic objective, and why this link leads Williamson to focus on real wages.
6. Entrepreneurial failure cannot explain all of the relative decline in post-1860 British economic performance. Write a concise essay in which you describe the evidence used to support claims of British entrepreneurial failure, and discuss what other factors may have led to Britains relative decline.
7. Based on evidence from the post-1860 Atlantic economy, stable and flexible institutions seem to help foster economic growth. Write a concise essay in which you describe, in general terms, what institutions may be important for a nations economic performance and why stability and flexibility are more important than any particular institutional framework.

Hi, I wrote the first draft of a 20 page research paper on the Wiener Werkstatte. Although the paper was completed, I had a lot of issues from the professor regarding my ability to digest the paper appropriately. He wrote that the background of the topic has too many details, many unrelated to any theme or topic. They need to be streamlined and made more readable. I provided too much detail about the artistry and works. He wrote that they need to be shaped and organized better. I need to make more generalities. He wrote that I needed to reflect, rethink and reformulate some of my formulations. It's not enough to list facts from my sources. I need to select which of the material facts serve my larger themes(no extraneous facts). I will e-mail you the first draft of my paper. Use that as a starting point if it helps(a paper completely different from its first draft may be a little suspicious). If you can in some ways adopt my writing style, that would also be good. Writing that's too alien from my own would also be suspicious. Included with the first draft is also my bibliography(five sources). Please research from them. I'm also sending three pages that I recently typed to guide me when I was presenting my paper topic to the class. Included are some background information on the workshop. I also highlighted on the positive effects of the workshop(joining art as a whole-Gesamtkunstwerk) with examples such as the sanatorium and book binding. Another positive aspect was the way the workshop handled machines(all in the first two pages). I also focused on the negative effects or factors leading to the downfall of the workshops(all in the last two pages). Those were possible themes that I planned to use for the paper. Be sure to use some of the ideas from the three pages. Throughout the paper, I'd like chicago manual style footnotes. No parenthetical citations. You can copy the footnotes from my e-mailed first draft if you'd like. Be sure to take in the criticisms from my professor. Good-bye and thank you!
