Essay Structure:
INTRODUCTION
1. ORIENTATION: introductory sentence to establish relevance of the question (perhaps a comment on what is going on today in that regard).
2. ARGUMENT: clear statement of case/purpose/response to essay question.
3. METHOD: explanation of why you chose those particular countries – remember that there has to be a reason which makes sense.
4. STRUCTURE: explicit outline of the evidence that will be presented and the way it is going to be used to support the argument stated above.
BODY
1. CONCEPT: Start the essay body by giving a short overview of the central concept (i.e. democratisation) or concepts (i.e. democratisation and modernisation). You will need to relate it to the question.
2. OVERVIEW of selected countries: some political/historical background. Keep these sections brief to ensure you have enough space for argument and analysis. Focus on those aspects which are going to be important to your analysis. We don’t need to know what they had for little lunch in prep.
3. ARGUMENT DEVELOPMENT: Design this part of the essay according to the question and the argument you are going to make.
CONCLUSION
1. Restatement of case with a summary of the evidence and analysis presented.
2. Final reflections: perhaps a comment on what is happening in those countries today or on future research.
