RESEARCH PAPER: ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY AND TOPIC SELECTION TEMPLATE
Statement of Topic:
In 1 sentence, tell the reader the topic you are researching.
Bibliography Information for Resource #1:
Smith, Mark A. “Religion, Divorce, and the Missing Culture War in America.” Political Science Quarterly 125, no. 1 (Spring 2010): 57–85.
Brief statement regarding the author and his or her credentials as an authority:
The author, Mark A. Smith, is an Associate Professor of Political Science and Adjunct Professor of Communication at the University of Washington. His research generally consists of political waves in America but is not intended to influence the government. His intent is rather to educate cultural and political trends in America. His intended audience is working professionals in counseling and sociology.
A crisp statement regarding the relevance of this article for your topic:
This article compares the conservative and liberal arguments on how divorce has impacted American Christian families and the culture in which these families survive. This particular argument discusses how the church and Christians, as a whole, are responding to divorce and how the liberals are using this against the values of Christians and the families affected by divorce. This is relevant to my research as I am looking at the cause and effect divorce has on the family, church, and community. In order to do so, I am looking at the history of divorce and its dissolution over the past 100 years.
A salient or meaningful quote from the article that you would likely cite if you were to write an essay on this topic:
Quote: “With the underlying causes affecting Christians and non-Christians alike, the national divorce rate reached nearly 20 percent by the 1920s as a rising wave of marital breakups moved over and around barriers built by religious institutions.”
Bibliography Information for Resource #2
Bray, Gerald L. The Doctrine of God. Downers Grove: InterVarsity Press, 1993.

Instructions for Reading Responses:
Since there is no textbook assigned for this course, this requirement is designed to broaden
your reading in the historiography and scholarship on the history of World Christianity. Every
week I will post on Moodle a scholarly article that supplements the topics we will cover in class.
On three occasions of your choosing during the semester you will submit written responses to
the reading. Your responses should be at least 750 words in length. Each response is worth 5%
of your final grade and will be graded on the Alpha scale.
After reading the article carefully, you should write a response to it, as follows:
• You should briefly summarize the article and its thesis: what is the author’s argument?
(approx. 250 words)
• You should reflect on the important connections between the article and our course by
relating it directly to the topics, events, issues, concepts we discuss in class (approx. 500
words). Be specific.
Note: These reading assignments have an expiry date—you have two weeks after the article is
posted to submit a response. You are not permitted to write on them after they have expired.
This is not an essay assignment, but your answers should be clear, well-organized, and
extraordinarily well-written. Remember that you need to cite all quotes, paraphrases, and
information from the article or other sources. You should format your references using the
Chicago Manual of Style “Notes and Bibliographies” citation system.
