EVALUATION of the Essay
This essay is extremely well-informed about the institutional history of the Zou community. Moreover, its contents are factually accurate. For its level of training, it displays ample evidence of original treatment and critical thinking on the subject matter. There is also at least one reference to the relevant literature (i.e. Ginzatuang’s Zomi Innkuan Laibu). Use of language is effective. The tone is empirical and objective at best, but it also partly indulges in policy recommendations. This piece deserves to be read by a larger audience.
