LEARNING OPPORTUNITY #2
Spring Term 2020 Marxist Political Economy
Learning Opportunity #2 involves formulating a thesis that can be developed with a
supportive argument that makes use of bibliographical sources. This is the first and
key step in writing a research paper for our EC345 course.
Research papers of quality are not typically written in one shot. More typically,
ideas are written down coarsely, and then developed into a first draft. Ideas are
then refined, further refined, and then refined even more in subsequent drafts. Our
approach accepts the notion that with refinement, the ideas written down initially
are of grand importance, as these initial ideas can be pushed steadily towards higher
and higher levels of clarity, reflecting what it is that you⎯the author⎯are striving
to communicate. Considering our time constraints in this ten-week course, we shall
proceed with composing a research paper as an exercise made in two shots, with its
arguments supported by cited literature.
This Learning Opportunity #2 will lead you towards completing the first draft of
your research paper. This is due on Friday, 22 May, and by sending to my email
address. This draft is worth a potential 25 points.
This first draft should include an Outline that takes up a full page. Your “Outline” is
worth 10 points towards content. Keep this in mind and avoid messing this up. Your
outline page should be rendered as Page “0.” And then the number “0” is
suppressed. In this outline please include a thesis sentence. It is in your interest to
work with me that your thesis is close to what you would like to develop and that its
posed as clear as a bell, as this thesis sentence serves as the foundation upon which
research inquiry will be built. Above the thesis sentence include a title. Below the
thesis sentence, you need an opening sentence. Below that, please include the two or
three parts that you plan to include in order to support your thesis. This opening
sentence typically begins with: This inquiry seeks to establish that…then you
plug into your thesis sentence.
Then, you need the first sentence of your conclusion. This sentence typically starts
with: This inquiry has sought to establish that … and then you plug into your
thesis sentence.
Please keep in mind that this Outline is worth 10 points towards content. So get it
straight. I’m on hand during office hours to assist.
Formulating a Thesis: For this course, your cited research paper needs to have a
thesis. Your topic and thesis should ideally have some special relevance and
importance to you. People tend to take an interest in your research if you believe in
its importance. Best if your thesis is verbally run by me, and also approved. If you
need assistance, you will need to speak with me during office hours. I hold four 50-
minute sessions each week. Consider speaking with me for at least ten good
minutes. If you can work well on your own, five minutes could suffice. If you need
more assistance, please then make use of my office hours.
Page 1 of your first draft should start with a variant of your thesis sentence. Then
you proceed with an Introduction. A good way to start is:
This inquiry seeks to establish ….
This inquiry seeks to convince the reader ….
With this inquiry, I shall seek to establish ….
Introductions run about ½ to one full page, and are not noted with a heading.
The two or three parts of your outline are then presented in bold face font as the
headings for each section.
When you reach Conclusion, a useful and balanced approach involves starting
with the sentence: This inquiry has sought to establish that ….
A conclusion typically rehashes the thesis in altered form, and then considers how
the thesis was developed with the two or three sections. A conclusion is essentially
a rehashed version of an introduction, in summary format, with some profound
ideas for the reader to consider at the end of the conclusion. One page should be
sufficient.
This leaves the main sections of your paper. Over the long span of history the
number “three” earns a high place among numbers. For examples, consider the
number of leaves on most shamrocks, and also the Irish emphasize that their
whiskey is distilled three times. So, a useful and standard rhetorical method is to
develop a thesis supported by three points: presented as sections of your paper. So,
you have a title page as “0” (suppressed). Then, comes Page 1, the Introduction
that runs from ½ to one page. Then you have three sections running about 2.5 to 3
pages. Add a Conclusion, and a Bibliography, and you have a 10 to 11 page
research paper. The conference papers that I write are typically limited to 2,850
words of text and up to four pages of notes, including bibliography. Cite the
relevant literature relying on standards emphasized in this course and are found in
the last section of Learning Opportunity #1. With this approach footnotes are
hardly relied upon. And, if relied upon, should serve to clarify or extend a topic
raised in the text.
An alternative is you develop your thesis in two parts, each about four pages.
For “Learning Opportunity Two,” you introduce this novel thesis and then proceed
to develop it as best you can.
Example of a Page 0 of L.O. #2. Please present your Outline for your inquiry.

I have looked at your research paper. You paper is about Imperialism, but you do not have in your bibliography Lenin’s book on Imperialism. All you list is Marx, Capital, Vol. 1, which does not deal with Imperialism.
In your intro, you deal with Imperialism like it is a business model.
This is ridiculous. Lenin (1916) deals with Imperialism as a stage of capitalism. He views Imperialism critically. these are my few critical points that you might consider.
Also the famous book is by John A. Hobson, “Imperialism”. authored in 1902 served as the foundation for Lenin’s 1916 title.
It seems to me that a basic study of imperialism would include these two key books in the bibliography and in the formulating of ideas, one by John Hobson and the second by V.I. Lenin. 1
Kindly check the following problems. I am so happy I spotted those problems before I get 0 in the class. I fixed a lot of the problems my self but the ones that remains are the following:
“like when introducing a business model.” – elaborate
———————
“For example, bankers and insurance companies cut” – cut what? Elaborate sentence is fragment
———————
“Among the many argumentative questions in the history of brokers” – dependent clause that has not been finished
———————
“Also, the bank provides discounting bills and overdrafts, thus promoting the part of people” – the part of people? What is the meaning?
———————
“The last time capitalist countries did not accept network banking, so there are more bank branches (Singh, 2020)” – last time when? Give specific time
———————
“Imperial explored entrepreneurial skills and scientific methods that allowed…” – do you mean imperialists?
———————
“he spread Western culture in which people study the Bible and pedagogical interactions.” – he? Who is he? state the name
“According to Lenin, capitalism grew through colonial oppression and the strangulation of finances, which represented a simple monopolist in a handful of monopoly companies. herefore, it contributes to the essential theoretical foundation that facilitates understanding of the main features and modern imperialism. Modern imperialism and its mechanism make it possible to maintain a monopoly over the economic state.“ – this paragraph has been re written twice in the paper. One under “Imperial State Reality” paragraph and one under “collective defense” paragraph. That is not acceptable. This needs to be fixed.
————————
“However, the highest aspects of the labor process and the monopoly of the highest labor productivity are controlled by trust. In this way, it facilitates the imperialist understanding that continues in everyday life. This leads to the development of non-monopoly capitalism in Third World countries (Singh, 2020). Defense forces are created by political supremacy, with one country dictating governmental rules that govern the country. Therefore, even though this creates diplomatic pressure, the government will use force in disputes between the parties involved. People were forced to go to prison, others were killed. In addition, other countries have been fully strengthened through practiced religions. The belief that people include having integral rules and trust where others think they are superior to others. For example, superpowers like the United States have strong troops and fleets that can hold security and ensure political instability in their countries (Singh, 2020). However, the government uses different strategic forces to fight other governments. For example, economic and social aspects make the country at war. Because of its adequate political, economic and relational aspects, it strengthened the United States in imperialism and financial capitalism. The above forces promote nation growth and economic development.” – this one is again written twice. Why? One under “Collective Defense Force” and one under “Monopoly Government Over the Economic State”. This is not acceptable.
————————
“You enjoy the availability of relief supplies and other raw materials.” – Don’t use you.. change pronoun
————————
“the highest stage of capitalism, Vladimir Illich Lenin advises.” – advises what?
