How to Cite Readings

Correct citation of readings is important for several reasons:

• accuracy on the source you are reporting

• learning proper social science citation

• mark of an educated person is to know proper processes of research in each field

For further examples see Formats and Bibliographies for Papers, Case Studies, & Theses.

Below I give an example from some of the texts:

For Hobson:

Hobson, John M.  2004. "Ch. 4: The East remains dominant: the twin myths of oriental despotism and isolationism in India, South-east Asia and Japan, 1400-1800."  Pp. 74-96 in The Eastern Origins of Western Civilisation. Cambridge:  Cambridge University Press. 

For Lechner & Boli:

Watson, James. 2007. "McDonald’s in Hong Kong."  Pp. 126-134 in The Globalization Reader, 3rd ed, edited by Frank J. Lechner and John Boli. Malden, MA:  Blackwell (orig. 1997).

* Note: for the individual chapters you cite the author of that chapter, NOT the editors, and follow the citation with the original date of publication (which is usually at the bottom of the first page of that chapter).  For Introductions to sections Lechner & Boli are the authors, as in the examples above.

For Robinson:
Robinson, William I. 2004. "Ch.  2: Global Class Formation and the Rise of a Transnational Capital Class." Pp. 33-84 in A Theory of Global Capitalism: Production, Class, and State in a Transnational World. Baltimore: Johns Hopkins University Press.

For others, as is appropriate. If in doubt ask in class.
