1. People choose, and individual choices are the source of social outcomes.
2. Choices impose costs.
3. Incentives matter.
4. Institutions matter and influence choices.
5. Understanding based on knowledge and evidence imparts value to opinions.

Part II: An explanation of how that historical event or topic influences our lives today. This should include at least two examples of current institutions and/or evidence of its influence.

The paper should be three to five pages, single-spaced with one-inch margins and 12-point font.
