The purpose of this exercise will be to utilize critical and analytical writing skills in order to discuss the ways in which historical debates surround themes covered in class. Assigned primary source readings will provide the foundation for this essay. Roughly half of the assignment will require you to summarize both assigned primary source readings. The remainder of the assignment will be to address the question posed by the primary source readings and choose a side. Papers will be double spaced, have one inch margins, use a twelve Times New Roman font, and contain a title. Use of the first person voice is prohibited. Be sure to state your thesis(your opinion on the issue) in your introduction, use specific examples from both primary source readings in your summary with sentences like “According to the reading…,” defend your thesis in the body of your essay, and restate your thesis in your conclusion. Late papers will not be accepted. President Woodrow Wilson’s Fourteen Points are either criticized for being too idealistic for the real world or praised as a blueprint for global peace.
