Summary Analysis/ Critical Response Instructions
Whats a summary analysis, you say? The grandaddy of political science, Harold Lasswell, is known for defining Politics. , Ideological values, beliefs, and opinions, aside, when it comes to government and politics, his definition of the word (ironically) is probably the only thing that all mankind can agree on. Lasswell, defines politics, as "who, gets what, where, when, and how". Apply that definition to the article's information, or the article's information to that definition, and write a .5- 1 page minimum summary that focuses on critically evaluating what is going on, from your personal perspective.
Interject your opinion. You should be making a statement, argument, and your opinion about the subject matter, should be known. However, this needs to be done in a scholarly and academic manner. Focus on explanation, reason and rationalization, to provide a clear opinion statement and discussion of their personal perspective and political position towards the event or issue in their article. To receive credit, students MUST PRINT their summary analysis/critical response paper, and bring a copy of the entire text, of their article, to bring it to class.
