A one-paragraph abstract with a proposed bibliography of three (3) scholarly ref
A one-paragraph abstract with a proposed bibliography of three (3) scholarly references (from outside those assigned in class) is due prior to the final submission.
• Introduction/Presentation of the Problem – introduce your film and address why you have chosen to write about it in the context of the course (1 page)
• Synopsis of the Film – plot of the film/series/comic book narrative, actors/characters, events, etc. (***no more than 1 page***)
• Body – discuss the ways in which the terrorist is “constructed” in your film and what issues it speaks to political power in contemporary world history employing multiple concepts from the course (3-4 pages)
• Conclusion – address why popular culture is important to politics, transitioning from analysis of your own selection to a larger discussion of popular culture, being sure to reinforce the concepts and analyses you addressed in your paper and those we discussed in class (1-2 pages)
• Note: Consider your selection carefully, and if choosing a big-budget, boosterism film, be sure your analysis does not take the content at face value or treat its representation as unadulterated truth, but as a narrative with a normative aim. Films depicting “terror” and the use of political violence from other eras and from outside the framework of the United States are strongly encouraged.
• Your paper should be between 6-8 pp., double-spaced, and 12-point font, and must cite at least three (3) of the assigned readings from the course (at least one textbook citation is required). Additionally, you must cite another three (3) outside sources, preferably scholarly sources
