Relationships between debtors and creditors and business law
The thesis statement is a simple sentence that says what the problem is, how to solve it, and why it’s important.
Here is an example of a thesis, taken from a paper I wrote when I was a law student:
At the moment, human genetic sequences can be patented. This is a wrong way to read patent law and goes against the product of nature doctrine. [The problem is this last sentence—wrong what’s with the law?] This article suggests that the correct legal interpretation of the “products of nature” doctrine be looked at again, which would make it impossible to patent human gene sequences. [Here’s the answer.] This research is important because it helps a growing field of medical, biotechnological, and related research. It also has real-world effects, such as making genetic testing easier to get. [What makes it important.]
This is a thesis statement. It explains a problem in the law, what the solution is, and why this is important (in short, it encapsulates the entire arc of the paper).
As you work on this assignment, frame your thesis statements in this way. It must look like the pictures above.
