The political economy of sex work and sugar babies
The essay topics should deal with some aspect of global political economy, a specific issue or agreement (either historical or ongoing) and a clear perspective in the essay on why the topic matters given class discussion.
The essay must have, as part of its introductory paragraph, a statement of its thesis (central argument) and a clear overview of the issues to be discussed in the paper.
It should talk about market regulation and state regulation or you can frame it as an issue that is defined by the difference between developed and developing countries.
