Identify their weak points and why one might disagree, provide new arguments for or against the claim in question, and/or defend the authors arguments from a (real or hypothetical) critic.

In most general terms, the task is to formulate and defend a thesis, or central claim. Toward the beginning of the paper, it should clearly state the thesis. (I will argue that… or My thesis is… or I claim that…. etc.) It is only a slight simplification to say that everything in the paper should be aimed at supporting the thesis- why the reader should accept your thesis as true, and why opposing argument fail.

Assignment:

Paper topic:
Identify the author a main claim(or one of the authors main claims). Clearly explain that claim and the authors arguments for it. Then evaluate those arguments: identify their weak points and why one might disagree, provide new arguments for or against the claim in question, and/or defend the authors arguments from a (real or hypothetical) critic.

You just give a statement of your
thesis and an outline of the argument.

Please NOTE: You are only doing a thesis and an outline on what the paper will be about. Whoever this assignment is given to will also be doing the 7-9 pg paper in the upcoming days in which I will be uploaded in a couple of days as well for that separate assignment
