Opposing Viewpoints In Context is Gale's premier online resource covering today's hottest social issues, from capital punishment to immigration to marijuana. This cross-curricular research database supports science, social studies, current events, and language arts classes. Informed, differing views help learners develop critical-thinking skills and draw their own conclusions.
Opposing Viewpoints In Context is a rich resource for debaters and includes pro/con viewpoints, reference articles, interactive maps, infographics, and more. A category on the National Debate Topic provides quick and easy access to content on frequently studied and discussed issues. Periodical content covers current events, news and commentary, economics, environmental issues, political science, and more.
Specific titles include The New York Times, Newsweek, Foreign Policy, American Scientist, and Education Week.
Viewpoints are broken down into the following categories:
  • Business and Economics
  • Health and Medicine
  • National Debate Topic
  • Society and Culture
  • Energy and Environmentalism
  • Law and Politics
  • Science, Technology and Ethics
