Economics at the Movies: Hunger Games
Geoff Riley
13th September 2012
A hat tip to Paul Mills at Ashby School for spotting that The Hunger Games is just out on DVD. He used the film today to discuss specialisation and division of labour. Each of the districts in the film specialises in the production of different products for the Capital. Also leads to discussion on how resources are allocated and different economic systems.
