What is Contrast?

Like a compare and contrast essay, a contrast essay asks you to choose two or more items and ideas and write about them.  However, instead of highlighting similarities between the two things, a contrast essay will describe how they are different.  It is important to note that, in order to have an effective contrast essay, there must be some similarities or shared middle ground between the things being contrasted.  A contrast essay that focused on the differences between a roller skate and the planet Jupiter would contain a lot of contrast, but would be almost incoherent.  However, a contrast essay that focused on the differences in Earth and Jupiter would start from the point where they are similar (planets in the same solar system) and then highlight differences.

Terrorism Define and Contrast the Many Definitions
Terrorism The term "terrorism" is profoundly political, as can be seen by the numerous definitions of terrorism and the lack of a globally-agreed description. Including definitions of "terrorism" from the UN General Assembly, the Arab Convention for the Suppression of Terrorism, the UN Security Council, France, Canada, the U.S. State Department, the U.S. Army, the U.S. Department of Justice, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation, among others, this work shows nations struggling to define "terrorism" in self-serving ways. Efforts to clarify and unify those definitions vary from legalistic to nearly bombastic. Examining both formal and informal approaches to unifying definitions, the common thread in both approaches is discovered: the insistence on nations' weighing their competing interests to reach a universal and workable definition
