Research Paper: Annotated Bibliography

An annotated bibliography is a bibliographic citation (in MLA format) that is followed by a paragraph describing a research source (for example, an article, a book, a chapter in a book, an internet website). For this assignment you will be summarizing two of the sources for your research paper in 4 or 5 sentences.

An Example:

Berman, Morris. "The Meaning of 9/11." 2006. They Say/I Say. New York: Norton, 2009.

442-57. Print.

Morris Berman tells of the Bush administration's rush to war in Iraq in the wake of the September 11 attacks as a series of deceptions whose goal was to establish American power in the Middle East. Berman cites journalists, scholars and government officials from the right and the left to support his argument that the administration acted cynically and with no concern for democratic values. He says the administration lied about weapons of mass destruction, manipulated or manufactured intelligence to create the impression that Iraq posed a threat, and then mounted a PR campaign to give the impression that the war was a success and enjoyed support from the Iraqi people. Berman ends by arguing that the indifference shown by administration officials to the looting of Baghdad's archeological museums is symbolic of a shift by the U.S. away from the values of Western Civilization to those of global consumerism.
