Research on death penalty in Singapore - Need advice for the start

Hi im required to do a research on death penalty within my country, which is Singapore. But I dont really know how to start with it. Help please!

Did your teacher provide you with a prompt? If so, could you please post it?

Hi, is there any word limitation for this research? Has your teacher asked you to follow a specific structure for writing your work?


Yes, the prompt would help us to better understand what you are really looking for. Michael F. can provide you with valuable help to write a great work. I have also some suggestions that you can find them below:

In general writing a paper, like what you are going to do, starts with an introduction. In the introduction you should talk about the history or background of the issue (i.e. death penalty). For instance, you can connect religion, traditions, and public opinion to execution of this penalty. Talk about the history of the penalty in your country. From what date this punishment has legally been executing in your country and why? Trace the roots of capital penalty in Singapore (your country). Then discuss each factor separately. You can organize your work as follows:

Hope this helps
Cheers,

Hi guys,
there is a preferred amount of words at about 800-1000.
I'm not very sure about what im suppose to do one, but according to the specifications i have to identify laws related to death penalty, both jurisdictional and non-jurisdictionnal, and do a compare and analysis.

Thanks guys!

I think in the background section you should mention the laws, and then divide your discussion (the discussion section) into three parts- Part I:Why do some people think that they are fair and reasonable laws? (Use academic and valid references), Part II: Why do another group of people think that the penalty is not a good type of punishment? (Use academic and valid references), Part III: compare what you discussed in parts I and II and give your opinion.

hey man, thanks. i just had a consultation with my lecturer, but he said it has to be linked to criminal procedures in my country. Any ideas how to? Thanks!!

I think for writing a good paper, you need to study more about the criminal procedure and laws which are related to death penalty in your country. Read the related documents and see what parameters have been considered at the laws and organize your work based on those laws and procedures. Gathering information is the first step dear.
