Paper For Above instruction

The provided peer review feedback revolves around a draft of a persuasive paper on outsourcing, which aims to address critical issues associated with global outsourcing practices. The feedback emphasizes the importance of constructing a compelling introduction, including a relevant title, and clearly stating a strong, defensible thesis early in the paper. It highlights the need for detailed background information on outsourcing—such as its history, key countries involved, and specific practices—to provide context for the reader.

The critique notes that the paper discusses three primary problems related to outsourcing: child labor, infringement of laws, and low wages. However, the reviewer suggests expanding the discussion for each issue. Specifically, for child labor, it is recommended to identify countries where child labor is prevalent and provide concrete examples. Regarding legal infringements, it is advised to clarify what constitutes infringement of laws, along with specific instances that exemplify this problem. For low wages, further elaboration on specific countries lacking minimum wage laws, and how this impacts both those countries and the United States, would strengthen the argument.

Furthermore, the feedback stresses the importance of logical flow within the paper. The current draft appears as a collection of facts rather than a cohesive, persuasive argument, and the reviewer recommends incorporating transitional words and phrases to improve the paper’s coherence. A well-structured conclusion that summarizes the three main problems and proposes potential solutions is also advised to enhance clarity.

Supporting claims with credible academic sources is essential; the reviewer notes that while three references were provided, adding more insight and critical analysis of these sources—and perhaps including personal perspective—would add validity and depth. The reviewer also comments on the inclusion of terminology matching, which appears to be a supplementary activity in the draft, potentially unrelated to the main topic but indicative of the reader’s engagement with content knowledge.

Overall, the reviewer underscores that the paper possesses a solid foundation but requires further development in its background information, detailed explanation of problems, logical flow, and use of transitional devices. Enhancing these areas would improve its persuasiveness and scholarly rigor.
