Citizenship & Diversity

Cannibal Ox

I'm sure he said it but I can't remember, are we allowed to answer questions on the topic we wrote our essay on? I'm sure we're not but I can't find anything about it.

And whats everyone studying for it?

Chakar

He said we're not allowed to write on our essay topic in the exam. I did the topic of feminism and multiculturalism relating to Okin's arguments so I can't write on that topic.

My main topic will be immigration but I'll also cover religion.

princess-sprkle

yeah, you can't write on your essay cause some people did topics outside the reading or something. crap, since the only thing i know is the essay

gonna look at religion and maybe immigration.

Chakar

Also the answer in the exam has to be structured along the lines of an argument, counter-argument and your assessment. The arguments and counter-arguments are to based on the readings.

The same as the essay structure really.

Cannibal Ox

Ah ****e, I thought so. I did feminism for the essay too. I'd done an essay on it for political sociology last semester, so I just threw in Okin and Kymlicka. I've done immigration, and I was going to do theories of citizenship but its a bit much to get my head around at this stage so I might try religion.

The_Minister

Yep, not allowed do the same one as your essay.

Can I ask, did he give any ints as to what topics will come up?
I can't find anything in my notes.
Or will every topic arise?

Chakar

He said that every topic will come up and I think it will be the case as there's only five topics in the module. Obviously feminism, immigration, religion and ethnic and national citizenship (multiculturalism etc.) are the main topics.

Chakar

I thought the exam topics were very reasonable. I did the question discussing Miller's views on immigration. I'm happy with it.
