We need to find an article which is related with what we learned in class 1. The articles must be relevant to our course study applying to law and ethics. • That means each article must have something to do with business law and ethics. • You may choose a topic from administrative law (so long as it is part of business law) even if we do not plan to cover in the class. For example, you could choose a topic relevant to labor law, securities regulation, or federal trade regulation. 2. What is an article critique? A critique is not (only) a criticism. A critique is a specific style of essay in which you identify, evaluate, and respond to an author’s ideas/writing, both positively and negatively. Therefore, as part of your assignment as it relates to the article(s) review (critique) you should address the following: • Identify: • What is the article’s background and purpose? • What is the main idea (the main argument) that the article is communicating? • Evaluate: • How convincing is the argument? • What does the argument assume? • How useful or applicable is the article? • Respond: • What is your assessment of the article? • What issues does it raise? • What issues does it avoid? 3. Describe the legal topic covered in the article(s), explain its relevance to our course study, and evaluate its appropriateness in today’s business legal environment. 4. Provide a brief history of the legal topic’s development and its effects on business. 5. Define critical terms presented clearly, precisely, and accurately. 6. Explain, with as much detail and insight as you can muster, the specific ethical issues, principles, and concepts that inform your understanding of your chosen topic.
