I have to write a 20 page anthropology paper. Chose Kuru and prion diseases. How do i structure this paper?

Question

The paper is due in about a month and he really hasn't given me any direction as far as how to write an anthropology paper. This is for an independent readings in anthropology course. Anybody know of any resources that shows you how to frame anthro papers?

Answer 1

Go find some journal articles from anthropology journals such as  American Anthropology, Journal of Physical Anthropology, American Antiquity, etc.  Reading some of these might give you an idea of how some anthropologists structure papers but everyone does it slightly different.  Also, make sure you use the correct style guide.  It should be the style guide that the American Association of Anthropology uses, but make sure because this is sometimes important depending on the professor.  Good luck on the paper!
