Assignment Question
Final Paper: The final paper is a book review of: Englund, Harri. 2006. Prisoners of Freedom: Human Rights and the African Poor. Berkeley University of California Press. The review must include citations with page numbers from the book as well as at least two sources from the following course readings: American Anthropological Association, “Statement on Human Rights;” Kant, Groundwork of the Metaphysics of Morals; Mill, On Liberty; Locke, Second Treatise on Government; Goodale, Surrendering to Utopia, Leve “Secularism is a Human Right”. The review must 1. identify Englund’s thesis, or argument;
2. Describe how he supports that thesis/argument with evidence, rhetorical strategies, logical inferences, etc.;
3. Explain how the book explores not just questions of human rights, but also of anthropology;
4. Evaluate the persuasiveness or shortcomings of the argument, and part of this evaluation must explore how the argument is positioned with respect to the concepts, arguments, theories, topics, themes or traditions that arise in the course readings above.
(The evaluation does not have to be restricted to these concepts, themes, etc. It must position the book with respect to the course readings, but the evaluation may raise themes, topics, concepts, problems, etc. that go beyond those that the course readings raise). The review must be at least 900 words. (That is around three double-spaced pages with a 12-point font). In addition, there must be a separate Works Cited page. No title page is necessary (but include your name on the first page). If my log in is necessary to view the sources I can log into my school account for the wanted sources above.
