Prof. Anuja

Very good essay! The student presented a very insightful understanding
of the public/private distinction drawing upon a wide range of
sociological and anthropological literature. The argument has been put
forward in a persuasive manner. The conclusion could have drawn more
from the threads in the initial discussion of public and private to
provide clearer connections in the overall argument.
