The final paper must present a critical assessment and examination of a theme presented in the course. It is 2500-3000 words (not counting the cover page and bibliography). We expect a final bibliography containing at least 7 primary and secondary sources to accompany your paper and to actually reflect the readings you have engaged in besides the core texts. This paper is the culmination of the work first proposed in the Research Design and Annotated Bibliography. It should incorporate corrections and comments provided in the Research Design exercise.
