write a paper about capital punishment. To write this paper, you will engage in outside research from academic sources about capital punishment, correctly citing your research throughout the paper where appropriate (such as providing statistics, laws, or other information that is not commonly known).
Any time you use outside information in your writing, you must cite a source. You must use quotation marks around all directly quoted material, in addition to an in-text citation at the end of each sentence (including the authors last name, year of publication, and page number), and a bibliography page at the end of your paper with properly formatted full citations. Even if you are summarizing someone elses ideas, you still must use in-text citations as well as a bibliography. Appropriate citation styles for this class include APA, ASA, MLA, and Chicago Style.
1. In a new section, address the topic of reasons why countries continue to use capital punishment by introducing this concept with a topic sentence. What are some of the reasons that some U.S. states as well as foreign countries continue to use capital punishment? Review the reasons for the use of capital punishment in those places still using it, such as Texas, Alabama, China, India, and/or Saudi Arabia. What are some of the most commonly used methods? Are harsher sanctions effective deterrents of deviant or criminal behavior? Why or why not? (In other words, do you see a correlation in the data between countries who continue to actively use capital punishment resulting in lower violent crime rates?) Are there certain types of people who are more likely to support capital punishment? If so, what characteristics do they tend to have? Be sure to note any important socioeconomic factors, political identity, age, gender, or other demographic factors.
2. In a new section, address the topic of reasons why countries have abolished capital punishment by introducing this concept with a topic sentence. What are some of the reasons that some U.S. states as well as foreign countries have abolished capital punishment? Review the decisions in countries such as France, the United Kingdom, Germany, or other countries to abolish capital punishment. What were the arguments? (Consider issues of innocence, morality, public opinion, or other reasons.) How do those reasons compare with the reasons that other places continue to use capital punishment? Identify at least one case where factually innocent individuals have been executed. In your own words, detail the case (providing proper citations where appropriate), and how this case demonstrates a need to abolish capital punishment.
3. In a new section, discuss your opinion on capital punishment. In your opinion, should capital punishment be used? Why or why not? Provide concrete examples to support you reasoning. Why do you believe what you believe? Are your reasons moral, social, political, some combination of these, or influenced by other factors? Are there certain circumstances under which you believe capital punishment is acceptable? If so, what are they? In your opinion, should certain places who have abolished capital punishment reinstate it? Why or why not? Do think more countries will abolish capital punishment in the future? Why or why not?
