History of American Capitalisms

Response sheet 5, before the consultations, whether Tuesday or Thursday

This week we will be pinpointing your research paper topic, to make sure it is compelling in terms of its topic, feasible in terms of sources, and equitable in terms of workload.

1.  So, again, what do you really care about, and why?  What can’t you stop reading about, thinking about, talking about?  Stepping back and considering why this is so for you is always — and continuously — useful.

2.  What are some of your ideas for a research paper topic with respect to the history of capitalism?  Explain a little about why each idea might intrigue you.  (Explanation is more important than detail, at this stage.)
