I would like the 6-page option please (double space). And it would be great if the critique could focus on the fact that Strayer’s claim is too eurocentric and ignores evidence of early institutions in other regions such as the middle east (evidence found on Abu Lughod’s book)
I need a 5 to 7 page essay (double space) arguing against Strayer’s thesis that the institutional origins of modern states can be traced to two medieval kingdoms (britain and france) during the years 1100-1300 CE. The critique needs to base on Abu Lughod’s “before european hegemony” and follow this specific structure:
1. 1. An introduction in which you explicitly outline a falsifiable hypothesis
2. A paragraph in which you state your assumptions and elaborate the scope conditions of your argument
3. At least three paragraphs in which you draw on Abu Lughod’s “before european hegemony” for empirical evidence to support or illustrate your hypothesis
4. A paragraph in which you consider the limitations of your argument
5. A conclusion in which you briefly restate the main conclusions and insights from the paper
