You can start by doing general internet searching for basic information. Then move onto a scholarly search engine such as Google Scholar, Jurn, or databases to which your school library provides access. Once you have a good idea of the basics, you should be able to narrow your topic to something you can manage in an essay. When looking through the scholarly data bases to which you have access via your university library, look for those that are related to economics and finance.
