Write an essay in which you discuss how Americans’ thinking about economic freedom has changed, and has not changed, from the end of the nineteenth century (that is, from around 1900) to the end of the twentieth century (or the early twenty-first century). What key historical events or developments shaped ideas about economic freedom during this period, and how? What continuities can be identified in thinking about economic freedom during this period (and even date back to the nineteenth century)?
