You will write a position argument paper - 800 words minimum, formatted in MLA with a Works Cited List in response to the essay

in Reading Critically, Writing Well - "Why Privacy Matters Even If You Have Nothing to Hide" on page 319 by Daniel Solove. 

This three draft essay is a thesis-driven argument that strives to meet the standards detailed in the rubric. 

• You will argue for or against the position taken, agreeing or disagreeing with Solove, while using the article as a source and a reference.

• In other words, do you think that if you have "nothing to hide", then online privacy doesn't matter? Why or why not?

• Read the article carefully to understand what he is claiming. 

• Your purpose is to convince your readers to take your argument seriously. 

• Therefore, you will need to acknowledge readers’ opposing views as well as any objections or questions they might have.

• This is NOT a review of Solove's paper; you are not evaluating his writing or argument.

Brainstorming/Pre-writing questions to consider:

• Do you agree with the author’s estimation about online privacy and information gathering?

• Support your answer with reasons, examples, and cited evidence.

• Solove divides violations of privacy into two types: Orwellian and Kafkaesque

• What is the distinction between these two violations, and why does either of them matter?

• To what extent should the government have such a significant power over citizens?

• Do you agree with Solove's assumption that a power differential is reason to be concerned, or do you look at the situation differently?  

o Here is an informative video about Franz Kafka and the meaning of Kafkaesque, and an article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Franz_Kafka#%22Kafkaesque%22

o Here is an informative video about George Orwell and the meaning of Orwellian, and an article:  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orwellian

 Be sure to read the discussion section following the essay on p. 323-325 for insights into Solove's rhetorical and writing strategies.

 

Position papers take on controversial issues that have no obvious “right” answer, no truth everyone accepts, no single authority everyone trusts. Consequently, simply gathering information – fact finding or expert sources – will not settle these disputes because ultimately they are a matter of opinion and judgment. Although it is not possible to prove that a position is right or wrong, it is possible to convince others through a well-constructed, reasoned argument.

 

Citation Guidelines: 

You must use and cite the one source from the text, but no more than three in total.

Anything outside your own experience, or that is not considered common knowledge, must be cited, but your own ideas and voice must clearly be heard in the paper, while using the source as evidence to support your claim. 

You may NOT use Wikipedia as a source, but may use it to see what the conversation is about in your topic (make sure to scroll to the bottom of their page to see their credible sources). 

** Another source you MAY use is this TED Talk by Glenn Greenwald “Why Privacy Matters”. Use the transcript to document any in-text citations, and be sure to cite the video accurately on the Works Cited List (google how to cite videos). 

 

Here is a template for creating your Works Cited List in MLA style for an anthology (a collection of articles in a book) in which to insert the correct information:  

• Author’s Last Name, First Name. "Name of Article". Name of Book. Three Editors’ Names. Edition number. Publishing house, date published. Page numbers. Print. 

Note:  The editors of the book are Rise Axelrod, Charles Cooper, and Alison Warriner. Editors are NEVER listed first. Authors are listed first. Be sure not to confuse the editors of the book and the authors of the articles.

o pp. 509 – 514 Citing Sources
