Abstract:
While the undergraduate History of Economic Thought course is alive and well, it will be increasingly taught by faculty who are not historians of economics. This paper provides resources - sample syllabi, information on texts, and advice on course construction - for the non-specialist. A supporting Excel workbook, HOTResources.xls contains many links that enable easy access to resources.
