TERM PAPER
You are to write an 8–10-page paper on an individual theorist of classical social theory, briefly explaining their major contributions and theoretical insights, as well as providing a biographical sketch of their life and work.
Research Paper Guidelines
Although the paper length is relatively short (8-10 pages), that does not mean that your paper’s content should be terse, superficial, or abbreviated in any way.If you need more space, use it. The length of any paper is not the central focus of the work; the content is. As you decide on what to write, you need to be thinking about the disciplinary perspective that you choose to write from.
Although the subject matter is interdisciplinary in scope, most of you will be writing from a social science perspective following a narrative style.
However, if you are more familiar with the APA, MLA, or Chicago style, they will work just as well; just be consistent. In other words, good grammar is a requirement, not an option you choose. If you feel that your writing is in need of help, please use the UALR Writing Center; it exists to help YOU.
Style Sheet
1. Unless otherwise stated, use either the APA or the Chicago style for formatting your report. If you choose the Chicago style, your report should follow the recommendations in the 14th or 15th editions of The Chicago Manual of Style. Acronyms, abbreviations, and jargon should be defined, unless they are well known.
2. Direct quotations should be used sparingly and must include an end-of-sentence superscript NOTE to the original source, shown in the NOTES section.
3. Avoid sex-specific terminology and the use of “man” or “men” as the generic for human being. Avoid male or female pronouns to describe individuals or people in general and use third-person plural (e.g., their) whenever possible.
4. Please give people’s full name as they are most known as on first usage. Thereafter, refer to both men and women by their last name. Do not include “Dr.”
5. Double-spacing should be used on every line of the entry.
6. No automatic hyphenation. Don’t right-justify text. Don’t use hard returns in the body of an entry. Use the tab key, not the space bar, for paragraph indents.Avoid the use of sophisticated formatting commands.
7. Spelling should be in American English (we recommend Merriam Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary).
