Globalization and its Discontents

With this assignment, you will read and review Globalization and its Discontents. The goal of a book review is to summarize the author’s main argument and the evidence/points used to make that argument. You must also evaluate how they have done so: does their methodology seem sound? What data/evidence do they use? What is their role in the world they are writing about? What might they have done better? What did do they do well? Please note that it is not just your opinion of what they have done, but you must use examples/evidence from the text. You should evaluate how much/what you learn about the main topic (spoiler alert: development and globalization). Below is a link to UNC’s Writing Center, in which they discuss book reviews and I highly recommend you take a look. I have also added to Blackboard an example of a book review I wrote & published on a different text so you have some sort of frame of reference. This assignment should be at least 3 pages double-spaced Times New Roman 12-pt font with 1-inch margins with Chicago Author-Date citations (you’ll need parenthetical citations when you’re quoting directly, even though I know what text you’re pulling from).  Link to UNC page: https://writingcenter.unc.edu/tips-and-tools/book-reviews/  Chicago Author-Date style citations https://www.chicagomanualofstyle.org/tools_citationguide/citation-guide-2.html

The Little School

Treat this assignment like you would an in-class midterm; that is, arrange a time when you’d have 1-2 hours free and sit down to complete the essay. Make sure you have read the ENTIRE book before completing the midterm. It is an essay, not just a series of answers to the questions below, so please have a quick introduction and use the response section as a conclusion. This is an open book, so you can use any notes you have on the book and the book as well.  Summary / Analysis / Response Midterm – The Little School For the sake of time, skip the summary in this essay and jump right into the analysis, however, leave space for a quick intro that covers the main points of your essay. Analysis Use SOME of the questions below to shape/guide your essay. Text How is the book organized? What is effective or ineffective about the organization of the book? How does the author try to interest the reader? How well does the author explain the main claims? Are these arguments logical? Does the support and evidence seem adequate? Is the support convincing to the reader? Does the evidence actually prove the point the author is trying to make? Author Who is the author? What does she know about this subject? What is the author’s bias? Is the bias openly admitted? Does that make his or her argument more or less believable? Do the author’s knowledge and background make her reliable for this audience? How does the author try to relate to the audience and establish common ground? Is it effective? How does the author interest the audience? Does she make the reader want to know more? Does the author explain enough about the history of this argument? Is anything left out? Reader Who is the reader? How would they react to these arguments? How is this book effective or ineffective for this audience? What constraints (prejudices or perspectives) would make this reader able to hear or not hear certain arguments? What is the exigence (events at this moment in time which affect the need for this conversation) that makes the audience interested in this issue? Response – USE AS CONCLUSION What is your personal reaction to the book? What common ground do you have with the author? How are your experiences the same or different from the author’s and how has your experience influenced your view? What in the book is new to you? Do you know of any information the article left out that is relevant to the topic? What does this book make you think about?
