2. Evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of the article, commenting      especially on: (a) the methodology, (b) the structure and clarity of the      argument, (c) the extent and relevance of the literature and related      concepts, models and theories on which the author draws.
3. Discuss the relevance of the findings beyond the United Kingdom.
4. Arising from your whole evaluation, draw conclusions about the      usefulness and value of the article and then make theoretically as well as      practically informed recommendations for future research and professional      practice vis a vis Labour Flexibility.
