Guidelines for paper on difference
The central question I want you to answer in this paper is:
How can polities deal with the presence of diversity within them?
That is, each of the thinkers weve read for this unit Madison, Calhoun, Mill, Taylor, Wolf, and Young identify both a set of problems diversity presents for states, and also presents possible solutions to those problems. Your task in this paper is to pick one strategy, and present an argument for why that strategy is the best.
A few reminders:
Focus on readers in this unit. Locke says some really interesting things about difference and diversity, but this paper is on this unit.
Answer the question. Dont say, Everyone has something to add, or, No one answer could ever work for everyone. Take a position, and defend it.
Address multiple thinkers, especially those in conversation with one another. Taylor and Young are both criticizing each other. Calhoun and Young are both criticizing Madison. Mill disagrees with Taylor. Dont just support one of these thinkers in your paper, explain the problems with the other
Use the texts to make your arguments, and cite the texts.
no plagarism.. I will later add text info.
