Hi there, I have attached the brief for the essay. The last point in the brief states “explain how articles such as this will be helpful in both a literature review for week 9, and possibly for the final paper in week 12.” Do not worry about this part as I will write it on my own. My topic for this essay is whether or not the death penalty is effective or whether or not is should be abolished. Whichever two articles are found, you can choose whatever thesis you’d like out of the two I provided as they also go hand in hand.
