Any controversial issue

Writing about controversial issues requires the writer to take a firm stand. It forces the writer to argue

persuasively and convincingly that his/her stand or position is undoubtedly correct. The writer must be
passionate about the stand he/she takes. The most persuasive controversial-issue essays anticipate objections
or questions that skeptical readers may have and refute them. Therefore, the cornerstone of writing well about
a controversial issue is gaining a wealth of information and reporting it accurately. In most instances doing
so will require the writer to research the issue thoroughly.
Characteristics of Writing about Controversial Issues
• ISSUE: the matter in dispute that you will clearly define while taking a firm stance
• POSITION: the logical or emotional foundation clearly expressed in a thesis statement
• SUPPORT: the reader’s confidence that the author gains by establishing common values and principles
• TONE: the reasonable and self-confident attitude of a committed, assured, persuasive writer
Example of one topic: You will read the play “A Doll’s House” as part of Unit 8 in which the author Henrik
Ibsen raises several controversial issues. For example, when Nora ends her union with Torvald, she also leaves
her children. Divorce is a common phenomenon in our society, and with escalating frequency, children find
themselves the innocent victims of collapsed marriages. Therefore, divorce is a controversial issue. The
divorce rate in Canada for the year 2009 is over 54%- meaning that more than one of two marriages culminates
by divorce! Did Nora act selfishly- not considering her children’s need before her own? Some critics have
argued that Nora made the right decision in leaving her family, while others have taken the opposite view. You
can research other controversial issues on the Internet.

Write an essay in which you take a firm position on a controversial issue facing us today. Your task is to
convincingly persuade your reader that you are undoubtedly correct by presenting accurate information,
concrete examples, and compelling organization.
