Sample thesis statements

Here are thesis statements from three articles from a range of disciplines

Law

“For the good of others: censorship and the third-person effect”

This study argues that the existence of a “third - person effect” in communication is an important factor contributing to pro-censorship attitudes towards media.

Social sciences

“The ecological; footprint as a key indicator of sustainable tourism”

Despite the undoubted demand for appropriate indicators of S.T, these authors argue (p.365)that research in this area is “still in its incipient stages”, a view echoed by others (e.g.,Li,2004;Miller,2001;Rebollo and Baidal, 2003).

Humanities

“Changes and development in a pluralistic world: the view from the classics.”

Building on the insight, we summarize three reasons for the relevance of classic work to the understanding of changes, development, and pluralism.
