ABOUT THE ANALYTICAL PAPER ASSIGNMENT:

You can access it electronically at any time through the Copley Library Website, using JSTOR.

Your paper assignment will need to address three sets of questions:

1) According to Wrights research, what does he conclude about the relationship between unemployment and the electability of Democratic candidates for governor and the President? Why is unemployment an issue that the Democrats own, according to Wright? How are his findings different from the retrospective and prospective models of voting, discussed in class? You will be evaluated on how well you articulate your understanding of this article (i.e. you will need to reference the authors text in answering the aforementioned questions)


2) What is the best approach for the American state (i.e., governments and bureaucracies at all levels) and society to overcome the problems that have resulted from COVID-19? Should Americans have the freedom and flexibility to decide what to do for themselves, without significant interference from government or the bureaucracy? Should we abide by the decisions of and defer judgement to those in authority who are more knowledgeable about the situation than ordinary citizens? Should Americans follow the commands and orders of government officials and bureaucrats, trusting that they have the public interests in mind, even if doing so subjects individual Americans to additional pain and suffering? Support your position with reasoning and provide references to the Wright article and course material in your answer.


3) In your opinion, what was the most important factor that voters considered when they voted for President in 2020? Was it unemployment as Wrights research suggests, or was there some other factor that was more compelling? Support your position with reasoning and provide appropriate references to the course material in your answer. 

You are required to include a cover page, in-text citations, and a bibliography in your paper assignment.
