1. After reading the two articles in Modules 1 and 2 related to Economic Theory (first, “How Did Economists Get It So Wrong” and second, “History of Economics Playground”), reconstruct what happened from 2006 through 2012 as it relates to microeconomic theory. Was there too much focus on the macro climate and not enough on the micro climate? Do you concur more with Krugman or Giraud? What is the basis for your opinion? Be sure to isolate other peer reviewed articles using the library that back your viewpoint and use it as a basis for analysis, in addition to what you see happening in the market yourself. Compare and contrast the two articles and the two authors’ perceptions of the market.
