Final Paper Instructions

Version 1 Subject to revisions

Write paper on federalism in India and Pakistan, following the instructions for each part.

Extensively use class readings. Use the provided template double space, standard (1 inch)

margins and 12-point Times or Times New Roman font.

About 2,500 words minimum, excluding instructions and bibliography.

You need to specify information sources, including page numbers, based on the APA (American

Psychological Association) format. See Purdue Online Writing Lab for APA and other styles

(https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/560/01/).

Use different sources, not just one or two articles.

Try not to directly copy phrases and sentences from the reading. If you do, use quotation marks,

“ ”, and identify the source. For example: “United Pakistan’s (1947–1971) federal experiment

and the causes of its failure can be better compre-hended once the meaning of federalism is

clearly defined” (Nuruzzaman, 2010, p.505).

As long as you use assigned readings, you don’t need to include a bibliography. When you use a

part of a reading, just identify the author and page number, e.g., (Mearsheimer, pp. 50-58). You

could use outside sources (but not Wikipedia!), but if you do, you need to include a bibliography

to list the outside sources.

Do not read or use your fellow student’s paper, or papers from this class in the past.
