Due Friday 10/20

Write a 5-6 page paper, in accord with the following guidelines.

1. Start to think of the work in terms of the previous document analysis assignment.  How does this document reflect the state of opinion about colonialism during the 195o’s and 60’s.

2. Try to analyze and describe the ideology of your chosen author. If the work is long, deal only with a specific issue.

3. Critique the author’s point of view. Are there fallacies? Are there ideas whose times has not come? Is the work just an intense expression of grievances based on the author’s experience.
