PLEASE REFER TO FILES FOR READINGS

Interpreting, Comparing, Assessing Arguments
 
Choose one of the sets of texts below and critically interpret, assess and compare their perspectives on the listed topic. As this is not a research paper, no outside research is necessary. However, you may want to include discussion of other perspectives from the required readings to support your claims.
 
Please note that the term critical is used broadly here to indicate that you need to have an argument in your paper. That argument need not (though it can) focus on criticising your selected texts but it must put forward an interpretation of their arguments and relate them to each other.
 
Note: The readings and instructions for each question are available on the LMS under the Assessment Details tab.
