Let's say you're writing a paper in which you are to explain an area of law, describe an unresolved question relating to that area of law, and propose some sort of answer to that question. Let's say that each of those three components is important. Let's say I'm reading that paper and I have to google key terms and even legal doctrines because they are not explained anywhere in the paper.
Do you think I'm going to be happy about that? No, I am not.
I just saw a notice for a competition and I'm seriously tempted to enter a paper. It doesn't have to be heavily researched, it just needs to be beautifully written and well thought out. If I write on the subject I'm toying with, it would also serve another purpose in my school life. But if this idea hasn't already been taken, I'll be shocked unto death.
