Write a 1500-2000 words essay arguing for or against of the following propositions.
Topic: We have a moral obligation to prevent absolute poverty.
Before you write the essay, you should read all the recommended and supplementary readings assigned under the chosen topic.
Guidelines
Your essay should include the following components:
1) a title, an introductory section, and a concluding section,
2) the strongest argument(s) for your position,
3) the strongest argument(s) against your position, and
4) the rebuttal(s) to the strongest argument(s) as explained in [3]
To avoid confusion, a rebuttal is better put right after each counter-argument. Your essay can be structured like this:
brief introduction: state your position, explain the issue, clarify relevant concepts, and briefly introduce your major arguments
section 1: explain the strongest arguments for your position
section2: explain strong counter-argument
section 3 rebut counter-argument (consider a possible response, if any, to this rebuttal, and your reply
section 4: explain strong counter-argument
section 5: rebut counter argument (consider a possible response, if any, to this rebuttal, and your further reply)
section 6,7,78,9…..
brief conclusion: summarise your arguments, and add, if any, your further considerations ( e.g. you might acknowledge some unresolved problems of your position, or how you have found both sides deeply problematic. though both sides are problematic, you can explain why you think your stance has a better chance to be true. you may also argue that there is a better way to understand the issue.
