paper topics: Any paper you write for this course will have two primary goals: to explain and critique a particular argument for a particular conclusion. So any paper topic you choose for this course should have the following form:
“Explain and critique [name of philosopher]’s argument in defense of [the philosopher’s substantive conclusion]”
For example:
