Content and Structure in Research Papers (General Guidelines)
Citations:
As a general rule, you should have at least one citation (footnote or endnote, Chicago
Manual of Style) per paragraph except for interpretive paragraphs in the introduction and
conclusion. You should also have about as many sources as you have pages of the paper.
You should try to have two or more sources per footnote. In other words, you should not
have a series of notes drawn from one source only, followed by another series drawn from
another source. Rather, you should have multiple sources to support most sections of your
argument. After all, the one book upon which you are basing six pages of the paper could be
dead wrong!
You should always give a full citation of a source the first time it is cited. After that you can
use an abbreviated citation (author, short title, page).
You also must include a bibliography, also following Turabian or the Chicago Manual.
Do not confine citations only to quotations; cite paragraphs where you synthesize
information from several sources also.
Annotate your bibliography, and especially the more significant sources (this means that
under the sources you write one to three sentences describing the source and its role in your
research.)
As a rule, four or five quotations in a twenty page paper is plenty, especially if the
quotations are from secondary sources.
Content and Structure:
Your paper should be structured as an argument answering a question. You should
begin, therefore, with an introduction in which you state the question or problem you
address, lay out your argument, its significance or how it fits into the context of the
topic you are studying, and explain how you intend to go about answering the question
using your sources. (“This paper is a study of women’s hair styles in early modern
Europe. Its purpose it to understand why women’s hairstyles changed, and how those
changes reflected the changing work status of early modern women. This question is
important, because it gives us an understanding of how much manual labor women
from various classes performed. My sources are drawn primarily from . . . ). This
section of the paper is about 1-3 paragraphs for a paper under eight pages, about 3-5
paragraphs for a paper of eight to twelve pages, and about three to five pages for a
paper longer than twelve pages.
The body of the paper is where you lay out the evidence and construct the argument
you are using to answer the question. You should not, therefore, be merely reciting
“facts” you have found in your sources. Rather you should construct an argument
(because – therefore). Use subheadings that reflect the sections (premises) of your
argument that you are supporting in this section of the paper to be sure that you have
covered all the material necessary and offered all the evidence possible to support your
conclusions.
Your paper should conclude with a conclusion in which you recap your question and
argument, and show how your evidence supports the answers you have offered the
original question you asked.
You may want to use subtitles or asterisks to separate the sections of your paper and
thus ensure that you have all the needed components of your argument. Outlines can
also help to ensure that your paper is well structured and coherent.
Another good clue to whether or not your have actually built an argument is to see
whether you use words like “because” and “therefore” in the paper, and whether or not
you can summarize your basic argument in a paragraph or so. If you haven’t and you
can’t, your paper probably rambles and does not include an argument or support it
effectively.
Organization
:
Every paragraph must have a topic sentence. Every sentence in the paragraph must
relate directly to that topic sentence. Avoid rambling paragraphs with multiple topics,
or no topic at all.
Paragraphs one or two sentences long are probably too short and should be integrated
with another paragraph, or lengthened. Paragraphs longer than one side of the page
probably need to be broken into two or more paragraphs.
Paragraphs should relate to the topic of the paper or of the subsection they are in as
sentences relate to the topic sentence of the paragraph. In other words, you should
build your paper with a distinct structure that includes an introduction, a body of
evidence divided with subheadings, and a distinct conclusion. Each of your paragraphs
should build on the previous paragraphs to construct your argument. Paragraphs
should not be placed randomly! Your paper should not read as if you shuffled the
paragraphs like a deck of cards or tossed the pages down the stairs.
To avoid problems 1-3, use conjunctive adverbs such as because, therefore, thus,
since, although, and however to organize your ideas and evidence, and to transition
between ideas. These words show cause and effect and thus are essential to building
an argument. Use an outline to organize your ideas into coherent paragraphs and
sections of the paper.

What is the future of Japan and Japanese Society?
For the final week of JAPN333, we think about the issues facing Japan today and what might happen be Japan’s future.  The Japanese people have faced critical turning points in their history in the past and succeeded in overcoming obstacles.  Does Japan today have the will and resolve to address and solve its problems?   Is the future of Japan positive or negative?  What are the positive signs?  What are the negative signs?

In the unlikely event that the Biden administration asked you to craft an immigration policy for the United States, using U.S. history’s experiences as a guide. What policies would you recommend to the President for regulating the entry of new immigrants? What policies in the past have worked and what policies have not worked? Are there lessons from other countries that can be applied to the U.S.?

Examples of Thesis Statements (Be specific and limit your topic)
The negative portrayal of Middle Eastern people in the movie Zero Dark 30, erases the humanity of the people in Iraq and overshadows the humanitarian crisis that has unfolded in the country over the last 20 years of war. This is important because the reality of the war in Iraq is often forgotten. 
Bernard Lewis’s article “The Roots of Muslim Rage” published in the Atlantic provides limited examples to support Muslim rage in the world and boxes 1 billion Muslims as anti-Western, this creates hate crimes towards Muslims in America and supports the Islamophobic industry which has increased since the terrorist attacks of 9/11.

Title: Why do nations seek to acquire
nuclear weapons? Will further nuclear proliferation make the world safer or
more dangerous?
Sagan and Waltz is the key debate here, and the other suggested readings
modify or add to that debate in various ways. Answers that rely on Sagan’s 3
models alone do not fully answer the question: you need to think about the
strengths and limitations of those models, using the range of other material
suggested in the readings and by your own research. When you read the
Sagan/Waltz debate you will see that the second part of the question is asking
you to take a view, and you should justify your position.
