Description:

PQ: PBPL 20000 or ECON 20000. PBPL 22100-22200-22300 may be taken in or out of sequence. Not intended for students majoring in public policy who are planning to specialize in economics or to take advanced economics courses. This course reviews and augments the basic tools of microeconomics developed in ECON 20000 and applies these tools to policy problems. We examine situations in which private markets are likely to produce unsatisfactory results, suggesting a potential rationale for government intervention. Our goal is to allow students to comprehend, develop, and respond to economics arguments when formulating or evaluating public policy. J. Leitzel. Winter.
