"Well
the TMA for this part of the course is explicitly designed to test
understanding and use of competing evidence. So, evidence from across
the different elements of the part and different kinds of evidence that
serve to support or disprove certain kinds of arguments. So obviously
comparative narrative would be an important part of this in terms of
understanding and using competing evidence. "
"Well
one of the five themes people will note quite easily is that of
evidence and argument and that provides some kind of pointer I think to
its relevance to this particular TMA which is the theme developed in
Chapter 5 of the book. But it is equally important to draw on material
from across the parts in this respect in order to assemble a range of
competing evidence in order to support or disprove a certain kind of
argument. So a focus there, but also drawing on a whole range of
material to provide a really good answer. "
So, that is pretty clear, evidence is needed from all chapters, all exercises and all audios - that gonna be a lot of referencing.
The next TMA question is,
What are the advantages of using a comparative approach to the study of
contemporary politics? Please illustrate your answers making use of two empirical examples drawn from the module material.
