As indicated on the syllabus, you have to write three policy papers (max. 5 pages). It
requires extensive research and thoughtful synthesis of primary and secondary sources. A
policy paper, however, requires succinct consideration of policy options for a particular
audience (e.g., officials, bureaucrats, politicians, development practitioners, donors).
This means that the format will also be different from a research paper. Some might say
that a policy paper is more “professional” because it is geared towards readers who have a
limited amount of time to make a practical decision, while a research paper is more
“academic” because it pays more attention to the scholarly roots of particular arguments
and judges their merit on intellectual and logical criteria. This exercise is a hybrid
between a policy paper and a research paper. Students will have to use the components and
structure of a policy paper, but use academic arguments and citations
