ESSAY WRITING FOR THE STUDIES OF

INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS IN ECONOMY AND TRADE

1. INTRODUCTION

All topics in the Studies of International Relations in Economy andTrade require essays to be prepared and presented as part or all ofassessment. Such essays vary from shorter essays in first-level topicsto 12,000-15,000 word research papers in Honors topics.

The nature and focus of essays may vary, for example in the type ofsource material required, but there is one common aspect of all essayspresented in the Studies of International Relations in Economy andTrade: the need for correct presentation and documentation.

2. WRITING ESSAYS

Compositiona) Your essay must be a scholarly exposition, incorporating an argumentand supported by evidence. It should based on facts and reason, notemotions and prejudices. It must be internally consistent, have astructured theme, be clearly introduced, developed logically, and leadto a clearly stated conclusion.b) Express the argument in your own words, rather tha11 just as aseries of quotations. (Note: “In your own words” does not mean closelyparaphrasing source material. ) While it may be appropriate from time totime in an essay to include brief direct quotations, clearly indicatedas such by inverted commas or indentation, the essay must be in yourown words and indicate the sources of ideas and facts which supportyour argument.c) The argument and evidence must be releva11t to the set question.

Side issues should be avoided. The awareness that there are side issuesis often a sign of intelligent reading, but the ability to showawareness of them without being distracted by the111 is a sign ofintellige11t writing.d) The argument should be consistent, and the language used should beclear, grammatical and precise. Your reader must always know what youare trying to say, how you are saying it, and why you think there isevidence or logic for saying it.e) The essay should be a finished piece of work, not a mere draft. Noteforms and abbreviations have no place in an essay. Your finished essayshould be the product of at least one draft.f) The best essays are those which are structured, well-researched,well-argued (and aware of counter-arguments) , clearest in style,interesting and, if possible, original.

Length and Presentationa)Essays should conform to the word length established in each specifictopic.b)Essays must be presented on one side of the page only. (If writingyour paper, you may leave every second line blank -- this makes thepaper much more readable, and allows more space for comments. )c) Essays may be word-Processed or typed. If so, they must be double-spaced on blank paper. (Many staff members encourage word-processing ortyping if at all possible)d) There should be a 4 centimeters margin on the left-hand side andample room at the foot of the page for references.e) Direct quotations of a few words should be included in invertedcommas. Direct quotations longer than one sentence should be inset twocentimeters from the main body of the essay text, without invertedcommas. (If typed, they should also be in single space) .f) References in the essay must be given by means of numbered footnotes.In the text of the essay the reference number should follow immediatelythe word or passage to which it refers. It should be raised above theline. For the method of citation, see section 3: Documentation.g) At the end of the essay you must provide a bibliography, inalphabetical order, listing all the sources you have used for youressay. For the method of citing references, see section 4: Bibliography.h) Essays must be submitted on or before the time stated. Penalties maybe imposed for late submission unless prior permission has been given.'i) On the outside of your essay you must attach the Faculty s

Cover Sheet.

3. DOCUMENTATION

Docun1entation is an essential component of any essay written atUniversity level. Essays in the Studies of International Relations inEconomy and Trade without adequate footnoting and a bibliography arenot acceptable. Footnotes are used to provide the exact source forinformation, opinions and direct quotations which are taken from otherauthors or from documents. It is necessary to provide footnotes in thefollowing circumstances:l. where you use a direct quotation;

2. where you are not directly quoting but where you are using, in yourown words, someone else’s ideas;

3. where you wish to provide the source for statistics and facts whichare not common knowledge;

4. where you are discussing the argument of another writer.

(Footnotes may also be used to qualify or add to the discussion in thetext of the essay. In the way, worthwhile material can be includedwhich might otherwise disrupt and distract from the central argument inthe text. Footnotes of this sort should be used sparingly and shou1dnot be used as a device to overcome the difficulty of stating theargument in a prescribed word length) .

It is necessary to use some discrimination and to strike a balance inthe use of footnotes. You do not need to give references for well-knownfacts about which there is no dispute. Essays can be over-documented aswell as under-documented.

Use of direct quotations

It is necessary to indicate clearly when direct quotations are beingused.

Qu'ota'tions of one sentence or less are indicated by inverted commas( . . . ) .

Quotations which are greater than one sentence in length should beindicated, not with quotation marks, but by indenting the quotedmaterial. In both cases, a footnote to the source should immediatelyfollow the quotation. Any omissions from a quotation should beindicated by three dots. Square brackets should be used to indicatewords which have been added to the original quotation and words which

have been altered within a quotation.

Footnotes
