This essay should be six pages long (without including title page and list of cited references). <\/p>\n\n\n\n
You must:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
a] Read the New York Times<\/em> article, \u201cIn Narrow Decision, Supreme Court Sides With Baker Who Turned Away Gay Couple\u201d. Briefly summarize the case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n b] Read the New York Times<\/em> article, \u201cBritish Jury Delivers First Conviction for Female Genital Cutting\u201d. Briefly summarize the case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n c] Use as many specific concepts and contents<\/strong> to develop a sophisticated discussion of the significance of these two cases when considered together. Indeed, they contrast meaningfully: the first case is decided by the U.S. Supreme Court in favor of a religious perspective abd belief system at the detriment, perhaps, of “individual sexual rights,” while the second could be seen as promoting individual rights by limiting the reach of religious and cultural traditions–some of which are criminalized by law (female genital cutting). In this section of your essay, you should engage in a discussion of all aspects of the contrast made by the two cases (two NYT articles) and the beliefs in the existence of supernatural forces\/beings each are grounded on. You should focus on what you find most relevant in the development of your sophisticated argument, from an anthropological perspective. It must focus instead on the significance of the contrast between both cases. You must use the Author-Date Chicago Manual of Style to cite your written sources and list your references cited at the end. E<\/strong>ssay must have a brief introduction, and must end with a list of cited references. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
