Philosophy of Law
The purpose of this Writing Intensive discussion section is to spend extra time working together to practice all stages of the writing process, including drafting, revising, and editing. Through additional writing assignments, workshops of your ideas and paper drafts, and structured in-section debates, you will confront not only the course materials but also yourself as thinker. You will be asked to offer reflections on the readings, on your own writing, and on your classmates’ writing. The aim of these exercises will be to develop your ability to articulate clear and compelling arguments—both in your own writing and speech, and in providing feedback to others.
Topics
- Reconstruct complex philosophical arguments in writing and speech Write clearly, concisely, and convincingly about the strengths and vulnerabilities of philosophical arguments Offer constructive feedback on your classmates’ writing and incorporate others’ feedback into your own writing Produce well-reasoned analytical prose
