Khawar Published in Journal of Applied Business and Economics
Elmira, NY (03/12/2019) — Professor of Economics, Dr. Mariam Khawar, has recently been published in the Journal of Applied Business and Economics for her manuscript, "The Story Behind Economics: Providing Context by Using Story-telling to Illustrate Economic Theory."
"Using the art of narrative to tell a story can be helpful when students become overwhelmed with mastering the technical aspects of economic theory and have a hard time 'finding the forestfor the trees,' said Khawar. "This paper reviews recent critiques of economics that have some leading voices in the discipline advocating for broader perspectives which incorporate both the content and methodology of other disciplines. Building on this argument, the paper will discuss two narrative assignments that the author regularly uses in a class on international trade and finance."
Khawar's manuscript can be found in volume 21, issue no.1 of the Journal of Applied Business and Economics.
