Structure:
– Title: Provide a concise title for the essay.
– Introduction: Start by introducing the subject (western intervention in middle east conflicts), explaining why it’s important or relevant. Embed the topic within the academic literature (Literature 1, Literature 2, Literature 3 and Literature 4), briefly outlining the debate you’re contributing to (how liberals and realists view the subject especially as shown in Literature 1 and Literature 2). State your position in this debate through a clear statement (my position is the liberal one (skepticism or opposition to military intervention and a preference for diplomatic, humanitarian, and multilateral approaches to resolving conflicts). you can elaborate on this freely). The introduction should be two to three paragraphs long.
Thesis Statement: Include a thesis statement that combines theoretical insight with empirical evidence. (the thesis statement: Western intervention in middle east conflicts is likely to lead to more anti-western sentiment in the affected countries)
Argumentation (Body)
Step 1: Elaborate on the puzzle, explaining the theoretical underpinnings of the debate and defining key concepts. Incorporate the four academic Literatures.
Step 2: Present empirical information and connect it to the theoretical debate. Use the two newspaper articles to support your arguments. Reference the four academic Literatures and the two newspaper articles.
Puzzle: Formulate a puzzle by problematizing the subject within existing literature. This should be more than just a question; it should explain why your position in the debate is academically relevant and how differing perspectives contribute to this puzzle (liberalists and realists).
Conclusion: Restate your thesis statement and summarize the key arguments without introducing new information. This section should be one paragraph long.
– **Bibliography**: List all academic and newspaper sources used, following APA citation rules.
