Critical Commentary
From the start of classes (May 6) until mid-June, students are required to track commentaries on one current, contentious issue in America politics of their choosing. Students may select any topic related to American politics as the scope of this project is very broad. Provided are some suggested areas to consider:
• Civil Liberties
• Civil Rights
• The Presidency
• Congress
• Political parties
• Elections and voting
• The news media
• Foreign and defence policy
You should make your decision on a topic almost immediately, given that you must begin to collect newspaper articles, magazine clippings, Internet news items and articles on your chosen issue on a daily basis. Then, based on what you have compiled, you will be required to write a http://www.ukassignment.org/mgzydx/ short paper (no longer than 10 pages) that is due June 30. This paper will review the nature and effects of the subject chosen, and will offer a critical analysis of the issues in question and how they are portrayed in the media.
