If you are the next Paul Samuelson and will wholly transform the field of economics, pay no
heed. If you are the next Ken Arrow and will invent a new branch of economics, these notes are
not for you. The aim here is more humble: to provide strategies for identifying exciting thesis research topics for the rest of us.
There is no algorithm that yields an exciting thesis. Too much depends on your energy and
imagination. But there are more and less efficient ways of trying to identify exciting topics. And I
will try to convey at least my own aesthetics about what interesting research is about. These may
vary a bit by sub-field and certainly across economists, so certainly seek out others’ perspectives.
So, ignore these suggestions if you choose — but have a good reason to do so.

支持楼主的，虽然看完这篇英文够我写一篇论文的时间了。。
