Symbolic logic and Venn diagrams are tools that can be used to remove
the content of an argument and examine whether or not the argument
itself makes sense. Using these tools, you will examine an argument
using symbolic logic and Venn diagrams and/or truth tables in your
paper. Your paper should be 1500 words minimum.
Prompt
Debates about policy, philosophy, theology, and ethics abound in
social media between family, friends, and strangers, and these arguments
can get very heated. Symbolic logic is an objective way to evaluate an
argument’s logical consistency. For this assignment, summarize the
author’s argument in the following article:
The Virtues of Patriotism, the Vices of Nationalism
Look to include the following elements in your analysis:
Deconstruct the author’s main points into symbolic statements
(symbolic letters and operators need to be used together to create
symbolic statements)

Discuss the results of your examination and the limitations of your analysis
Demonstrate how the author’s argument could be applied to a different subject

Formatting & Sources
Please write your paper in APA format. You may refer to the course
material for supporting evidence, but you must also use at least 3
sources and cite them using APA format. Please include a mix of both
primary and secondary sources, with at least one source from a scholarly
peer-reviewed journal. If you use any Study.com lessons as sources,
please also cite them in APA (including the lesson title and
instructor’s name).
Primary sources are first-hand accounts such as interviews,
advertisements, speeches, company documents, statements, and press
releases published by the company in question.
Secondary sources come from peer-reviewed scholarly journals,
such as Computing Edge. You may use sources like JSTOR, Google Scholar,
and IEEE.org to find articles from these journals. Secondary sources may
also come from reputable websites with .gov, .edu, or .org in the
domain. (Wikipedia is not a reputable source, though the sources listed
in Wikipedia articles may be acceptable.)
