The Problem of War | Interim 2012 

Response Papers (20% of course grade)

You will be required to write two short response papers (1-2 pages) on days assigned in the course schedule. The questions provided in syllabus might be helpful in formulating a clear, coherent, and contestable thesis.

All papers should be double-spaced with standard margins and fonts (11 or 12 pt). All papers should include your name, our names, course title on the first page. All subsequent pages should be numbered.

We expect to find a clear and coherent argument in which every sentence directly relates to the thesis and logically connects with one another. Any claims concerning our readings should be supported by textual evidence. Finally your paper should exhibit impeccable grammar and precise sentence structure.

These papers are due prior to the discussion of that question in class on the day assigned in the course schedule.
