O<\/span>VERVIEW<\/span>
In the field of federalism and intergovernmental relations, the Christian statesman needs to read<\/span>
leading works in the field with an aim of identifying key concepts related to federalism and<\/span>
evaluating those concepts from a Christian worldview. Toward that end, the purpose of the Book<\/span>
Review Assignment is to evaluate a leading work in the field of American federalism and place it<\/span>
in the framework of a Christian worldview that is informed by the framer\u2019s views of human<\/span>
nature and limited government. To aid in that goal the Book Review Assignment will require that<\/span>
a set of \u201cprompts\u201d be answered from a point of view (a thesis) about the book. The response to<\/span>
these prompts should be thorough and demonstrate a mastery of the book\u2019s content and the<\/span>
ability to evaluate the work from a Christian worldview.<\/span>
I<\/span>NSTRUCTIONS<\/span><\/p>\n
\n
Write a book review for<\/span> <\/span>Exploring Federalism<\/span> <\/span>by Daniel Elazar that addresses and answers the<\/span>
following questions:<\/span>
\uf0b7<\/span> <\/span>How does Elazar\u2019s model of federalism compare to other leading models we have<\/span>
encountered in the course thus far? Present a summary of Elazar\u2019s model. Then contrast<\/span>
Elazar\u2019s model with two other theories\/models of federalism from the past three module\u2019s<\/span>
assigned readings. Pick the two theories\/models that you think are the most important<\/span>
rivals to Elazar\u2019s.<\/span>
\uf0b7<\/span> <\/span>Is Elazar\u2019s model of federalism the best model that we have reviewed so far in upholding<\/span>
a Christian worldview? If you agree, provide at least three reasons from scripture (or<\/span>
from the framers\u2019 views on federalism, human nature, and limited government) with<\/span>
support for each reason. If you disagree, do the same. One of your reasons for disagreeing<\/span>
could be that you think that another model does the job better. If that is true, state and<\/span>
describe the preferred model, along with why it is preferable.<\/span>
Follow the requirements listed below with respect to the content and structure of the book review<\/span>
(for other requirements, review the Book Review Assignment Grading Rubric):<\/span>
\uf0b7<\/span> <\/span>Thesis<\/span>: The Book Review needs a thesis, a point of view that pulls together the two<\/span>
prompt questions. The thesis should be clearly stated in the introduction. This is a book<\/span>
review and not just a \u201cbook report.\u201d<\/span>
\uf0b7<\/span> <\/span>Word Count<\/span>: Paper should be between 1000-1200 words. This includes the title page,<\/span>
the body of the paper, and the alphabetized list of references (if needed).<\/span>
\uf0b7<\/span> <\/span>Format<\/span>: APA, double-spaced, Times New Roman (12 pt.) with margins at 1\u201d on all<\/span>
sides. Place page numbers in the upper right-hand corner.<\/span>
\uf0b7<\/span> <\/span>Content<\/span>: Include title page, paper, and an alphabetized list of references. Include the<\/span>
following in the paper: introduction, a response to the two prompt questions, and a<\/span>
conclusion. It is expected that the Book Review Assignment will have many citations, but<\/span>
only one or two short quotes. Include one to three references (if needed) in a reference<\/span>
section at the end of the paper.<\/span>
Note: Your assignment will be checked for originality via the Turnitin plagiarism tool.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
