Typically, scholarly articles do not compare and contrast two particular theories, positions, or topics. Rather, they will cover one particular study or perspective in depth. It will be up to you, as a student, to the information you have learned from your research and draw your own comparisons and conclusions.
If you are looking for articles concerning both sides of an argument, library staff recommend starting with Opposing Viewpoints or America's News.
