Social Change
Description
Assignment – Write a well-researched essay that explores this paradoxical relationship at a moment of profound change in history.
Explore the social structures that enabled, resisted, arose, or fell in the face of this change, and you will survey the individuals who fought for, enabled, pioneered, sabotaged, or strove to prevent the change.
Goals – The primary goal of this assignment is to partake in thorough research and sustained inquiry into a single topic in order to produce a research essay that contributes meaningfully to an ongoing discussion. Remember, you do not have to change the conversation or discover something new to contribute meaningfully.
Write in the first or third person depending on which best suits your evidence.
