3. In looking over the essay in the last part of the book on Social Change, choose ONE essay from the following selections:
Title.. The Arab Counterrevolution (Hussein Agha and Robert Malley)
Write a BRIEF response to that essay with some note as to why you selected that essay. Provide some analysis of the particular reading i.e. state the main idea of the essay as well as a few key points that support it, but also express a personal reaction to it eg liked it, didn’t like it, understood it, didn’t quite understand it, or agreed with the author, didn’t agree with the author. In composing a response or reaction to the author/ essay, add your personal reaction and impressions. Because response papers are written from the first person point of view, you can and should use phrases like “I thought” and “I believe” when reviewing. (one page in length)
