You can only cite, “On Liberty”"},"content":{"rendered":"

Prompt: In On Liberty, John Stuart Mill argues against the despotism of \u201cCustom,\u201d while arguing in favor of
\ntoleration and diversity. Are these arguments consistent with one another or contradictory? If you
\nthink they are consistent, why so? If not, why are they contradictory? To develop your response,
\nmake use of all the chapters from the book we have covered in class, paying close attention to Mill\u2019s
\nunderstanding of liberty, the \u201charm principle\u201d and its applications, and the idea of individuality.  <\/p>\n

  Essay structure:
\n\u2022 Your essay should begin with an introduction that lays out your argument and provides a
\nroadmap for how you will address the prompt.
\n\u2022 Your essay should end with a conclusion that recapitulates the arguments made in the
\nprevious pages and the broad implication(s) of those arguments.
\n\u2022 Address each part of the prompt with equal weight and importance.
\n\u2022 Use a consistent citation system for quotes from texts. Secondary sources are not required.
\nEssay content:
\n\u2022 Make an argument rather than summarize relevant portions of the text. A consistent and
\ncoherent argument, backed up by evidence from the text(s), will often distinguish a good
\nessay from an average essay.
\n\u2022 Consider the strongest counterarguments to your position. Evaluating strong
\ncounterarguments fairly and reinforcing the strength of your own arguments will often
\ndistinguish an excellent essay from a good essay.
\n\u2022 Get to your point as quickly as possible. Fitting an introduction, conclusion, argument, and
\ncounterargument within 1500 words, while giving equal weight to all parts of the prompt, is
\na difficult exercise. It will require careful outlining and writing more than one draft.
\n\u2022 Avoid extraneous content. Don\u2019t use background information that\u2019s not directly relevant to
\nyour argument. Don\u2019t summarize parts of the text that are not essential. Block quotes take
\nup a lot of space, try to avoid them.  <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
