Answer one of the following. While your answer should draw on the Baptist reading, I encourage you to also use material from Empire of Cotton where relevant.

1. In the decades before the Civil War, there was a vast increase in the cotton trade, with huge new areas of the American south being turned to cotton and the value of cotton exports from the US rising dramatically. How was this growth in the cotton industry experienced by slaves? How did it affect their lives?

2. According to Bishop, many of the traits that we associate with modern business were actually found first on slave plantations. What are some of the modern, rational business practices that first developed on slave plantations?

3. Historically, most labor has been unfree to some extent. Even today, most people have to obey the commands of a boss or supervisor at work. But slavery seems like an extreme case of unfreedom. What made slavery unique? What made it different from other forms of bound or coerced labor?

Note: Make sure your answer is based on the reading and uses specific examples from the text; dont just answer based on your general knowledge of slavery.

It’s hard out here for an inventor/innovator (with apologies to Academy Award Winner Three 6 Mafia)!  While some (such as Edison, Jobs, Musk, etc.) become billionaires, many others fail — often for predictable reasons. 

Based on class discussion and readings, identify several (e.g., at least three) major reasons why inventors/innovators fail other than bad luck or their own lack of skills (which is addressed separately in Essay Question #2) and offer suggestions for how these predictable failures you identify might be anticipated, averted, or reduced.  If you have a personal/family business experience with failure (or adversity) as an inventor/innovator, you may include your experience as part (but not all) of your analysis.

Should economists replace Keynesian monetary theory?

Why do New economists say traditional Keynesian DSGE IS-LM models need revision if we are to miss another crisis? What new variables, theories or emphasis are incorporated and why? This is to be a 5-7 page economic analysis with annotated graphs of your understanding of the failure or success of IS-LM Models for managing monetary policy (describe in economic terms you are reading and studying in this course) and the Reforms made to correct the underlying failings of prior policies and regulations..
