Location: Seminarraum WISO 1, (ZG102.28)AimsThe aim of this course is to introduce students to the wide-ranging controversy Classical economics, Keynes and Monetarism on an introductory level. It provides the special opportunity for (economic) historians to become acquainted with some basic economic theories which frequently are applied in order to support historical explanations.ObjectivesDiligent students will learn to make sense of and evaluate the historical background, achievements, main criticisms and later developments of this controversy which implicitly still covers much ground in historical and theoretical discussions.Rewards and RequirementsTeaching consists in one unbroken 90-minute lecture/seminar weekly. Students are required to contribute in a lively manner to discussions at all classes and also to produce one substantial talk and seminar presentation (about 30 minutes). Before presenting their talk in class, students are required to prepare and discuss their talk with me.Examination ArrangementsExaminations will take place in April and June 2010.
