Writing Assignment:
The
assignment is to conduct a literature research review of a five to six-page,
double-spaced paper on Hegemony. Critically analyze the concept
in a brief essay which clearly examines the
meaning
of the concept as it has been defined and interpreted by different theorists. The
analysis
should begin with a review of the concept from the perspective of the theorist
studied in
this
class (Antonio Gramsci, Pierre Bourdieu, and Michel Foucault). Keep
in mind that different theorist may use different terminology to refer to a similar social
phenomenon.
It is
required to employ at least six published sources in the analysis of a concept.
The
sources should include a sample of studies that are published in reputable
journals or
books,
and authored by different social theorists. The analysis should summarize and review these publications
within the larger context of these debates (when relevant).
The
papers will be graded according to the following criteria: 1) The ability to
articulate a
clear and concise understanding of the
concept presented in the course; 2) The ability to find
sources within the literature that
have a close bearing on the concept; 3) The ability to compare
and contrast (in writing) the ideas
and claims of the different theorists.
Since the page limit is short, keep
quotes brief; no long passages in quotes. If you quote
someone or make allusions to their
ideas in your paper, place their name, the publication year of
the work, and the page number in a
parenthetical statement like thus: (Jepson, 2015: p.156). A
full citation of the work should be
made in the bibliography at the end of the paper.
Hello writer, I have attached 3 articles to reference; you will need to find 3 more with the same sociologist. (Antonio Gramsci, Pierre Bourdieu, and Michel Foucault)
