Brainstorming About Teaching Economic History Next Year...
Well, the stars have aligned, and those intelligences vast, cool, and unsympathetic...
No: That is not what I mean.
Start over.
Well, the stars have aligned, and I will be teaching nothing but economic history next year:
- Survey (graduate students)
- 20th Century (undergraduates)
- American (undergraduates)
- European (graduate students). So it is time to think about curriculum: what to teach them and how to teach it...
The Graduate European course (4) I am taking over from Barry Eichengreen, who has turned it into a "Great Books" course, and that seems to work very well. So here is my FIRST DRAFT PRELIMINARY INCOMPLETE AND BADLY FLAWED ROUGH SYLLABUS CUT. Comments and criticisms greatly appreciated...
