Assignment 3.3.2 Analyzing Sources
Total 42 marks
The following assignment expects students to deconstruct and analyze sources for a formal written source
interpretation. You need to clearly communicate your interpretation of three sources, and demonstrate your
understanding of how each source links to liberalism. Then, explain the relationship that exists among all three
sources. Make sure you have reviewed the unit pages in the course, as well as read pages 204-212 in your
textbook before completing this assignment.
This written response is the same format for the Midterm and Final exam, as well as Writing
Assignment #1 on the Provincial Diploma Exam.
Please note that you cannot complete Part Two of this assignment until this Part One is marked by
the teacher.
Analyze the three sources to complete the assignment.

bad for us…I am in favor of cutting taxes under any circumstances and for any excuse for
any reason, whenever it’s possible.
-Milton Friedman, 2006, in John Hawkins ‘An Interview with Milton Friedman’
