    There are many ways to construct this paper. Your goal is to do so in a way that all grading criteria along with the paper guidelines are met. In general, you should focus on several fundamental ideas rather than an exhaustive analysis. That is, aim for depth rather than breadth. For example, if you chose 1, you should focus on a couple of fundamental points of agreement and disagreement rather than trying to cover them all. <\/p>\n

    Before starting, review the embedded Grading Rubric and follow the general guidelines below.<\/p>\n
