ECO 330 Research Paper

Description

In this assignment you will examine how a specific economic or social factor affects economic development in a single lesser developed economy.   This is a research paper assignment not a report.   A paper uses theoretical and empirical methods to test a specific hypotheses.  A report merely presents facts about a specific topic.   There are four distinct necessary steps for a successful paper.

1. You must clearly layout your paper’s hypothesis. This is typically done in the introduction to the paper.  You should also explain how you intend to test your hypothesis in your introduction.

2.  You must develop the theoretical under-pinnings that you will use to test your hypothesis.
