1 / Possible Thesis Questions The following is a list of possible research paper topics. A research paper is not a report. Instead, it must deal with a specific issue, and should prove a specific thesis. Your thesis statement must deal with an interpretation of the topic and is not asimple report! For example, if you choose the Persian Gulf War as your topic, do not write a report describing the events of the war. Instead, you must develop a thesis that will lead you through an analysis, such as the causes of the Persian Gulf War, which is open to interpretation. Remember to be as specific as possible when writing about your thesis question.
