Final Project Instructions:

Watch the documentary The Corporation (linked below). Write a five-page paper (double-spaced, standard margins and font) in which you critically evaluate the film. Do NOT submit an attachment, which will not be opened. In evaluating the film, refer to chapters 6-10 in your textbook and make at least three specific connections between the film and relevant concepts in the chapters (e.g., you might consider what the book’s discussion of Citizens United [2010] implies about key arguments in the film). Be sure to cite the relevant page numbers in the book.

DO NOT use any other sources or any other external sites, including Grammarly and AI sites: DOING SO WILL RESULT IN AN AUTOMATIC ZERO.

In writing your essay, you will want to briefly summarize the film’s main points (your summary should be no more than one page). Then, analyze the film’s key arguments. If you find the arguments persuasive, show why they are so and develop them further. If you find them unpersuasive, explain why. is nix hurt? One question you might want to think about is: do the practices depicted in the film suggest that the American political system is not working properly? Or do these practices instead suggest that the American political system is in fact working as it was designed? In answering this question, you should think about James Madison’s discussion of factions and pluralism in Federalist #10.

Your essay will be graded on the persuasiveness of your analysis, the effectiveness of your use of the required sources, and the overall quality of your writing. So be sure to give yourself enough time to write, revisit, and carefully edit your essay so that you can submit a clear, convincing, and well-written work. Your essay is due by midnight on February 7 and is worth 28 points.

Let me know if you have any questions.
