Phil 427/G : Philosophy of Law
( Spring 2012 )

PAPER #2

Details :  10-15 pp. (1.5 space, Times New Roman font) research paper on a student-selected topic [35 pts.]
 
Due :  Friday, May 11, 2012, 4 p.m., in CH 300 

Details:  The subject of the paper is open, so long as it is jointly agreed upon by the student and the professor. It may also coincide with your class presentation topic (law, responsibility, & addiction OR rights, terrorism, & torture). If you choose one of the latter topics, use the assigned articles or readings to focus more narrowly on a specific theme or problem, and then develop this with the aid of additional sources (books and/or articles -- not websites). The paper should have a bibliography of 5-6 items, at least, with about half of these going beyond the assigned class readings.  The paper should be composed and written like a formal research paper, with footnotes or endnotes containing references to the literature and clarifications or expansions of points made in the text.

Contact the professor if you have questions or need assistance.
