Theories of Adam Smith and Karl Marx

There is not a ton of information regarding the guidelines for the paper. This is pretty much all I was given, which allows for a fairly flexible essay.

-2500 words (about 200 can be works cited) Doubled Spaced

-7 sources, with at least 3 being from a physical book

-Your topic can be a wide range of subjects, however it should somehow connect back to an economist we’ve covered in class. For example, analyzing a modern day economic policy or issue using Mills’ utility theory.

Pretty straight forward paper highlighting who each of the economists were, including their backgrounds, personal lives, and how they each contributed to the economic field( specifically regarding capitalism). Then compare and contrast the theories of each individual and dive into their legacies and contributions to economics.
