Additions:
- Read "Winner take all ..."∞ by Robert H. Frank and Philip J. Cook. It is an excellent example of a causal argument. Note the way Frank and Cook reject other possible solutions in the opening paragraphs and then move in to a discussion of many different aspects of their own proposed cause (in other words, you don't have to be locked into a model of paper writing that presents your argument and then discusses counter-argument). That said, do Frank and Cook place too much emphasis on their cause and do they do an adequete job explaining where the "winner-take-all" economy came from? Also, it is important, when analyzing the cause of something that is ongoing (the growing gap between the rich and the poor in this instance) to present where these effects may lead. Try and find where Frank and Cook do this in their arguments and then think about how we can apply this sort of technique (extrapolation) to our own argument about Cambodia.
