CMPL 546 International Environment Law And Politics
Answered
Task
This assignment requires you to locate, read and provide a “critical summary” of Nils Christie’s article, “Conflicts as Property.” You must locate and read the full version of this essay
In this assignment, you will need to do the following:
- Provide a summary of Christie’s views as these are presented in the essay. Remember that you wish to include his main or most important points only – this is a summary!
- Drawing upon what you have read and learned in the course to date, do you agree with what Christie says about modern law? This is the “critical” part of the “critical summary,” and as you write it, remember that this is a scholarly paper you are writing, so you will need to back up your views with evidence – it is not enough to simply state your opinion, you need to back it up with evidence.
You will need to tell us what is it in Christie’s analysis that leads you to a particular point of view or criticism, and what research or argument from another source (or from
Christie himself!) supports your position.
Your summary should be approximately 750 words or 3 pages in length; it must be typed, double-spaced and in 12-point font
