For the writing assignment in this course – Five Families: The Rise, Decline, and Resurgence of America’s most Powerful Mafia Empires is assigned. Write a 4 to 6-page essay (excluding the title and reference pages) in which you critically review the literature assigned. You may use readings from this course as part of your essay, but you must use the FIVE additional scholarly sources in addition to whichever course readings you wish to include. Newspapers, Wikipedia, Tumblr, Facebook, Buzzfeed articles, and all other non-scholarly sources are strictly prohibited.
Critical analysis refers to specific style of writing that tends to avoid summarization. Instead, you could compare ideas across readings, relate concepts between two seemingly different situations, address bias or evidence problems, argue a counterpoint, discuss implications of the author’s arguments, emphasize points of importance, debate theoretical positions, emphasize incongruity you find while reading, relate the concept or topic to another scholarly source, ask questions the original author ignored, and so forth.
All essays must use APA formatting for in-text citations and reference list and be free of spelling and grammatical errors. Your assignment should be typed, double-spaced, 12-point font. Each essay should be between 4 to 6 pages excluding the title and reference page, with one-inch margins on all sides and page numbers. Please do not vary your font, font size, kerning, spacing, or punctuation to overcome the length requirement, as this is readily apparent to your instructor.
