Global Issues, Local Arguments: Readings for Writing features high-interest arguments on significant global issues and emphasizes their connection to students' lives while developing critical thinking, analysis, synthesis, argumentation, and research skills. The first argument reader of its kind, Global Issues, Local Arguments: Readings for Writing explores oppositional and nuanced points of view within issues pertaining to globalization: Free Trade, Employment Outsourcing, Immigration, Culture, the Sex Trade, Child Labor, Water Rights, Climate Change, Global Food Supply, and Global Health. Students are asked to make connections between local actions and global issues so that they start to understand how writing can be a tool for learning and an agent of change--relevant and strong both inside and outside of academe. Conscientious, specific, and plentiful pedagogy introduces each issue, follows each reading, and concludes each chapter, continually asking students to break down and compare rhetorical argument strategies in use. Thoughtful writing prompts build from brief, informal writing assignments toward more comprehensive and formal researched arguments.
