Political Argument Construction and Defence

8 weeks · 0 milestones

Construct a structured written argument (minimum 1,000 words) on a contested political question — a real policy debate or institutional design issue, not a textbook scenario. State and defend a position with evidence; acknowledge and respond to the strongest objection. Proof is the argument plus a documented adversarial exchange: your interlocutor (a political scientist, policy practitioner, or equivalent) poses at least three specific objections to your reasoning; your written responses to each are recorded and submitted alongside the original argument. The exchange — not the essay alone — is the proof standard for this outcome.
