Teaching Economics

Blog

Blast from the past

Clearing out a (very) old economics department broom cupboard ... no one seems to have set foot in it for at least twenty years .... I came across this reminder of my earliest days as a schoolboy economist - the wonderful Question of Economics produced in the (late?) 1970s by Yorkshire Television and presented by Peter Donaldson and Zeinab Badawi. I wonder how many other grizzled economics teachers still have a copy of this in their collection? And what happened to Peter Donaldson?

A more up to date Question of Economics is the title of this excellent blog.
