Comparative Political Systems

Assignment Rules:
In no more than a page (which for me is 550 words), summarize the central claim of the reading and the key steps of the author’s argument to support this claim.

Be sure to discuss the methodology and sources that support this argument.

At the end, assess the strengths and weaknesses of the argument.

My instructions:
Please do not make it a long paragraph of random facts one after the other. Instead of stating facts from the article right after the other, state the main claim and explain how and why the author makes it the main claim. In a PEEL format (point, evidence explanation). The author’s main claim is this (make it very clear) and he does this by mentioning this, this and this. I do not want a re summarization / re phrasing of everything in the article with a lot of quoting, I must explain it in my own way. State main point/argument and how the author manages to address that.

Maybe each rule in separate short paragraphs.

BELOW I WILL UPLOAD A SCREENSHOT OF THE RUBRIC AND HOW I WILL BE GRADED. IT IS OUT OF 5. I REALLY NEED TO GET A FULL SCORE ON THIS!
