PAPER TOPIC

Peter Berger and J. S. Mill examine the relation of the individual and society. In doing so they are concerned with two central issues:
1. the control of society over the individual and
2. the liberation of the individual.

Show how each author approaches these issues bringing their own language and terms into this presentation. Integrate the two authors in a conclusion about the relation of social control and individual liberation.

Please note that this is not a “comparison” essay. It is also not meant to be an exhaustive account of their ideas. It is a discussion of the relation of the individual and society based on a selection of their key ideas.

STRUCTURE OF THE PAPER

While an extensive discussion is possible on these issues please keep in mind that this is meant to be a short paper with a concise focus on the key points.

Begin your essay with a thesis paragraph that establishes:

I. What will be done in the paper.
This the focus of the paper, the issue that is maintained throughout.

II. How this will be done, that is, indicate the steps that will be followed.
This is an overview of the points that you will establish in the body of the paper

III. What the paper will show overall.
This is a general or partial statement of the conclusion.

Carefully follow this structure as you move through the paper.
