An annotated bibliography of sources for the Week 8 research paper. This work must contain a minimum of six scholarly books and one scholarly journal. Additionally please ensure you understand the difference between an annotated bibliography and a list of references.

Further Guidelines

A standard alphanumeric outline is acceptable. Do not submit your outline in narrative or bullet point format Content Requirements Your Thesis Statement:  Consequently employ the following type of thesis statement for your proposal.  Firstly an argumentative paper makes a claim about a topic and justifies this claim with specific evidence. The claim could be an opinion, a policy proposal, an evaluation, a cause-and-effect statement, or an interpretation. The goal of the argumentative paper is to convince the audience that the claim is true based on the evidence provided. Note: Your thesis statement must have a debatable element. For instance, the statement “The Middle East has been torn by conflict for decades” is not debatable.

On the other hand, the statement “The conflict between the Israelis and Palestinians exists primarily because of political rather than religious differences” is a clearly debatable statement in which the opposite view could be plausibly argued. Choose appropriate source material: Conduct research by employing legitimate, academic sources of history. Practically speaking, this means books and academic journals. Do not use materials from non-academic sources – history.com, online encyclopedias, etc. As research is a fundamental part of the assignment, do not use books or articles from this course’s required readings.

Suggested readings from this course may be used. If you have any question about the suitability of a source, consult the section of the syllabus entitled “Using Appropriate Sources” or contact your instructor.
