Requirements: a. the paper should deal with at least one issues considered in classes (see schedule of classes); b. The length of the paper should be between 2,000 and 4,000 words, footnotes and bibliography included. The word count requirement must be strictly observed. If the paper exceeds the word limit, student need to edit it to fit the required length, trying to delete every sentence that is not necessary to make your point and to defend your thesis. At each point in the paper, you should honestly be able to answer “yes” to the question: is this bit here really necessary? c. you must use the Chicago reference style, author-date: see here: https://www.chicagomanualofstyle.org/tools_citationguide/citation-guide-2.html;
d. A good paper must have: i. an explicit and clearly stated thesis; ii. an explicit argument that supports the thesis; iii. possibly, non-trivial objections to the thesis and/or arguments, showing how these objections might undermine the main thesis. Tips for writing a successful paper for PES course: There are two kinds of papers you might choose from: papers that advance a thesis, and papers that advance policy suggestions. A thesis advances a substantive claim on some of the issues considered in classes: for example, that migration should be prevented for environmental reasons. A policy suggestion, by contrast, advances a claim concerning how to implement substantive views taken for granted, for example, that the best mitigation policies should rely on finance-driven markets. A thesis concerns consideration about what is good and right, or politically just, and why. A policy suggestion mainly deals with what is feasible or practicable in our current conditions, and why.
