  Wonhyo – History and Political Science

  $30.00

  Double-spaced analytical paper based on primary documents that synthesizes and puts in broader perspective the concepts and themes learned throughout the semester. You will choose a topic, supported by three primary readings, that either examines one state/cultural unit over a prolonged period of time OR compares several East Asian states/cultural units across space in a limited time period. Little or no outside research is necessary, but you do not have to limit yourself to the assigned readings. Try to begin with a primary source that you find intriguing or a point raised in discussions or lectures that provoked your thoughts. A few areas of general inquiry supported by the assigned readings include:

  • Spread and adaptation of neo-Confucianism
  • Commerce, merchants, and mobility
  • The Mongol legacy
  • The Ming tributary system and its contradictions
  • European expansion and its limits
  • The changing constant of the Inner Asian frontier
  • Japan: From systemic breakdown to centralization
  • Ritual, magic, and kingship in Southeast Asia

  Of course, these very general areas of inquiry will have to be narrowed down further to create an argument, and you are by no means limited to them alone. Do not bite off more than you can chew. In my experience, no topic is too narrow.

  Argument:
  Your argument should be clearly stated as one or two sentences the thesis statement in the introductory paragraph of the paper. Each subsequent paragraph must use specific examples backing up this main point. Avoid broad generalizations and do not stray from your topic. An organized introduction, along with a conclusion at the end that restates your argument, will provide a clear focus for the essay.
  Sources:
  Your paper must cite at least THREE primary readings. For our purposes, all selections from de Bary, Lu, and the LATTE readings are considered primary sources. Note, however, that any introductory explanations, scholarly analyses, or footnotes from these texts will NOT count as primary sources.

  For an example of the distinction between the two, if you look at page 112 of de Barys Sources of East Asian Tradition (your textbook), the part that starts with Han Fei (d. 233 BCE) was said to have been… is de Bary talking. This is a secondary source. While you may refer to it or quote from it, you CANNOT rely upon it as one of the three primary sources for the paper. The part beginning with Chapter 49: The Five Vermin – Past and Present have different customs… is Han Feizi talking and legitimately counts as one of the three primary sources. Consult us if you are unsure whether a passage or quotation is primary or secondary.

  Format:
  Essays will be about double-spaced pages, using 12-point Times New Roman or Calibri whatever is the default these days fonts and standard margins. Your pages should be numbered as well.
  Do not wait until the last minute. Papers will be marked off one letter grade for every day late, weekends included.
  Use quotation marks to identify quotes from any source, or use single-spaced indented blocks for quotes exceeding four lines of text.
  You must use footnotes or endnotes or inline citations to cite your sources. You may refer to the University of Wisconsins Writing Center website for citation styles: http://writing.wisc.edu/Handbook/Documentation.html.
  Follow the universitys policy on academic integrity. I take a very dim view of plagiarism, which is a particularly vile and pernicious form of cheating, and will refer suspected cases to the Office of Student Development and Conduct. If you are in doubt, please ask me for advice, or consult the syllabus or the code at http://www.brandeis.edu/studentlife/sdc/ai/.
  You must proof-read and spell-check your paper. Ask a friend to help.

  Essay Grading Rubric

  The grade for your paper is based upon the weighted average of three grades: an assessment of a) the amount of critical thinking shown in supporting the argument (50%); b) the strength and quality of the argument and the accuracy and quantity of the evidence (30%); and c) effectiveness of organization and clarity in writing (20%).

  A
  Content/Analysis: Writing fully summarizes the key points and/or undertakes a sound comparison of the assigned material, and provides an insightful evaluation of their merits in terms of their overall significance and broader contribution to the study of history.
  Argument/Evidence: Writing clearly spells out a thesis statement and uses sources wisely to construct a concrete, unambiguous argument around the main point.
  Structure/Organization: Writing is clear, logical, and organized, containing a minimum of misspellings and grammatical flaws.
  B
  Content/Analysis: Writing brings out most of the key points in the assigned readings and/or undertakes an adequate comparison between them, and provides some insight into the merit of these works in terms of their overall significance and broader contribution to the study of history.
  Argument/Evidence: The thesis is clear, although the argument may drift from time to time, and the use of evidence and examples may not completely accord with the main point.
  Structure/Organization: Writing follows a logical organization but could be a bit hard to follow at times, and contains some minor or one or two serious misspellings and grammatical flaws that may hamper the flow.

  C
  Content/Analysis: Some of the key points from the assigned readings and/or an attempt at comparison can be discerned from your writing. Writing makes a further attempt to show the overall significance of these books and their broader contribution to the study of history.
  Argument/Evidence: Both the thesis and evidence used to back it up appear ambiguous and confusing. Sources have a basic connection with some aspects of the main point.
  Structure/Organization: Writing has minimal organization and contains numerous errors in spelling, sentence structure, and basic grammar

  Bank Of America Liable For Fraud In Countrywide Mortgage Case: Jury
  Reuters | Posted: 10/23/2013 3:56 pm EDT | Updated: 10/24/2013 3:16 pm EDT
  * Bank found liable on one civil fraud charge
  * Verdict seen as a major win for the U.S. govt
  * Former Countrywide exec found liable on one fraud charge
  By Nate Raymond

  NEW YORK, Oct 23 (Reuters) – Bank of America Corp was found liable for fraud on Wednesday over defective mortgages sold by its Countrywide unit, a major win for the U.S. government in one of the few trials stemming from the financial crisis.

  After a four-week trial, a federal jury in New York found the bank liable on one civil fraud charge. Countrywide originated shoddy home loans in a process called “Hustle” and sold them to government mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the government said.

  The four men and six women on the jury also found former Countrywide executive Rebecca Mairone liable on the one fraud charge she faced.

  The U.S. Justice Department has said it would seek up to $848.2 million, the gross loss it said Fannie and Freddie suffered on the loans. But it will be up to U.S. District Judge Jed Rakoff to decide on the penalty. Arguments on how the judge will assess penalties are set for Dec. 5.

  Any penalty would add to the more than $40 billion Bank of America has spent on disputes stemming from the 2008 financial crisis.

  “The jury’s decision concerned a single Countrywide program that lasted several months and ended before Bank of America’s acquisition of the company,” Bank of America spokesman Lawrence Grayson said. “We will evaluate our options for appeal.”

  Marc Mukasey, a lawyer for Mairone, called his client a “woman of integrity, ethics and honesty,” adding they would fight on. “She never engaged in fraud, because there was no fraud,” he said.

  Wednesday’s verdict was a major victory for the Justice Department, which has been criticized for failing to hold banks and executives accountable for their roles in the events leading up to the financial crisis.

  The government continues to investigate banks for conduct related to the financial crisis. The verdict comes as the government is negotiating a $13 billion settlement with JPMorgan Chase & Co to resolve a number of probes and claims arising from its mortgage business, including the sale of mortgage bonds.

  RISKY LOANS

  The lawsuit stemmed from a whistleblower case originally brought by Edward O’Donnell, a former Countrywide executive who stands to earn up to $1.6 million for his role.

  The case centered on a program called the “High Speed Swim Lane” – also called “HSSL” or “Hustle” – that government lawyers said Countrywide started in 2007.

  The Justice Department contended that fraud and other defects were rampant in HSSL loans because Countrywide eliminated loan-quality checkpoints and paid employees based on loan volume and speed.

  The Justice Department said the process was overseen by Mairone, a former chief operating officer of Countrywide’s Full Spectrum Lending division. Mairone is now a managing director at JPMorgan.

  Amy Bonitatibus, a JPMorgan spokeswoman, said, “We are reviewing the decision.”

  About 43 percent of the loans sold to the mortgage giants were materially defective, the government said.

  Bank of America bought Countrywide in July 2008. Two months later, the government took over Fannie and Freddie.

  Bank of America and Mairone denied wrongdoing. Lawyers for the bank sought to show the jury that Countrywide had tried to ensure it was issuing quality loans and that no fraud occurred.

  The lawsuit was the first financial crisis-related case against a bank by the Justice Department to go to trial under the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act (FIRREA).

  The law, passed in the wake of the 1980s savings-and-loan scandals, covers fraud affecting federally insured financial institutions.

  The Justice Department, and particularly lawyers in the office of U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara in the Southern District of New York, have sought to dust off the rarely used law and bring cases against banks accused of fraud.

  Among its attractions, FIRREA provides a statute of limitations of 10 years and allows the government to bring civil cases for alleged criminal wrongdoing.

  Virginia Gibson, a lawyer at the law firm Hogan Lovells, said the Bank of America verdict was a “big deal because it shows the scope of a tool the government has not used frequently since its inception.”

  Gibson and other lawyers say any appeal by Bank of America would likely focus on a ruling made by the judge before the trial that endorsed a government position that it can bring a FIRREA case against a bank when the bank itself was the financial institution affected by the fraud.

  The case was one of three lawsuits in New York where judges had endorsed that interpretation. Banks have generally argued that the interpretation is contrary to the intent of Congress, which they said is more focused on others committing fraud on banks.

  Bank of America’s case was the first to go to trial, a rarity given that banks more typically choose to settle government claims instead of face a jury. But Bank of America had said that it “can’t be expected to compensate every entity that claims losses that actually were caused by the economic downturn.”

  In a statement, Bharara said Bank of America “chose to defend Countrywide’s conduct with all its might and money, claiming there was no case here.”

  “This office will never hesitate to go to trial to expose fraudulent corporate conduct and to hold companies accountable, particularly when it has caused such harm to the public,” Bharara said.

  In late afternoon trading, Bank of America shares were down 27 cents at $14.25 on the New York Stock Exchange.

  The case is U.S. ex rel. O’Donnell v. Bank of America Corp et al, U.S. District Court, Southern District of New York, No. 12-01422.
