– You will investigate one issue or problem in the history of South Africa that resonated with you from your timeline. You must consider different perspectives on the chosen problem or controversy related to the history of South Africa and its peoples and attempt to reach a resolution about it. To do so, you must conduct research in both secondary literature and primary sources and write a 1,250-2,000 word (5-8-page) review paper that critically evaluates the scholarly debate on your chosen problem and offers your own perspective on its resolution. At a minimum, the paper must utilize at least two primary sources and four secondary sources (at least one must be a monograph). You are also required to submit a one-paragraph process and reflection postscript to your paper explaining how the timeline assisted you with completing the final paper. (Global Engagement)
To help you settle on a topic, I am including a link here to South African History Online (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.. This website provides a comprehensive overview of research topics. From the main page, hover your cursor over “Politics & Society” and then “Special Features.” You’ll see eight subtopics including titles “History of Women’s Struggle in South Africa (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.” and “Liberation Struggles in South Africa (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site..” Click on any of the eight topics that most interest you. Each page has a section labeled “topics” from which you can then choose a specific topic on which to center your research. If you want to choose a different topic not on one of the lists, you should run your alternative topic by me before starting your research. Each page also contains the source links that you can use for the paper.
Be sure to give your paper an interesting title, and cite all sources using Chicago style footnotes.
