DESCRIPTION: What is a Government's Economic Responsibility to Its Citizens as They Pursue Happiness and Prosperity?

This discussion-based course balances theory with real-world case studies to explore:
• What are business cycles and monetary/fiscal policy responses to them during history’s most prominent financial crises?
• How does money and banking move our economy?
• What ethical misdeeds have contributed to financial downturns?

Students can enhance their personal financial skills as they gain a historical context “lessons learned” that can model ethically considerate behavior in their own lives.
