The first document which is Literature_HW is an example of how it supposed to be done. And the second file attached are the literature reviews that need to be done. what you have submitted but it wasn't done correctly that is why I am resubmitting this so it canoe done correctly.
Literature Review Template & Rubric (20%) In preparation for your oral presentation, you will undertake a Literature Review of 3 papers (academic; policy analysis papers; official reports – e.g. World Bank) that will be assigned to you by the instructor. For this assignment, you should fill in the Literature Review table provided below. Create an empty version of this table to complete your exercise. Your oral presentation should be based and modeled on this Literature Review, i.e. including: a research problem; a theoretical approach; a time frame; a focus-area; data; etc. This exercise will be a useful base to prepare yourself for writing your own Research Papers. Table: Literature Review Table Row ITEMS Article 1 1 Full reference Use APA style to report the full reference. 2 The research problem, question and debates. 1) The research problem usually constitutes the first paragraphs of the paper where the author underlines the relevance and the importance of the matter investigated. Examples of research problems might be: the relation between oil and war; the effects of nationalism on self-determination attempts; the effects of climate change on migration and unemployment. 2) The research questions refer to the author’s puzzle within the general problem. For example: talking about the relation between climate change and migration [problem], the author investigates the impact of water shortages on living conditions [question] which push people to migrate. The question or issue addressed differs from the problem insofar as the author attempts to provide an answer to it through her/his research. By contrast, a research problem is too wide to be solved. In the case reported, the author might not find a solution to climate change but could address water shortages in the region/area under consideration. In the case of academic journals, you will find the research questions clearly expressed in the introduction. Instead, the research question might be less clear in press articles and reports where you will need to identify the author’s overall approach to the problem. 3) The debate that exists around the problem is usually introduced in the introduction and further explored in the literature review section of the paper. For example, the paper investigates the relationship between climate change and migration [problem], with a specific focus on the effects of water shortages on rural population [question]. According to the author, water shortages can have negative effects on rural population because: i)…; ii)…; iii)… However, according to other authors, water shortages will lead to value water differently and apply new methods of cultivation/irrigation/consumption as showed by country X where: i)…; ii)…; iii)… [Debate]. 3 Data used / time considered Where do the data used in this paper come from?

Book chapters will be useful to organize the theoretical part of your oral presentation. 7 Critical notes Do you agree with the author? Do you disagree? Do you think the author is missing something that is relevant to your topic? Does it raise an interesting question that needs to be further investigated? 8 Citation tracing Explore the bibliography of the article to find other papers that might be interesting for your topic. 9 Summary (400-500w) Write down a short review of the paper summarizing the key points highlighted and the way it can be used in your presentation. To build up your argument, link the article with the other papers you have reviewed already, or that other people in your group have examined. You should prepare this table for each of the articles you are supposed to produce a Literature Review. Please add a column for each paper in the same table to allow comparisons between them.
