IRLS210 – Midterm Assignment (due 21 February)

I have provided links to relevant information on each person. Don’t be surprised if you find information that reflects each of the three mainstream theoretical perspectives for each person. What you’re looking for is the theory that is the most prominent. Which one stands out the most and why?  Be sure to demonstrate your understanding of the theoretical perspectives and to include specific evidence (e.g. words and/or actions of the leader) to support your analysis in each paragraph. I recommend using the MEAL plan to organize your thoughts.

IRLS210 – Progress Assignment (due 14 March)

The Instructor has not posted the details for this assignment – I will send you the details as soon as they are available.

The Assignment Topic is ‘Cuban/N. Korean Collection Plan’

IRLS210 – Progress Assignment (due 14 March)

Assignment Instructions:  For this assignment, please write a précis, which literally means to “cut short”.

Begin by choosing one of the peer-reviewed journal articles from the course materials.  You may use any of the articles in this class.  For your convenience, below is a comprehensive list. As you read, highlight the questions the author is trying to answer.  Then highlight the answers the author found to those questions.

“Of Networks and Nations” by John Arquilla 

“Human Rights and Business” by Wesley Cragg, Denis Arnold, and Peter Muchlinski

“Global Gun Control: Examining the Consequences of Competing International Norms” by Suzette Grillot

“In the Defense of Women: Gender, Office Holding, and National Security Policy in Established Democracies” by Michael Koch and Sarah Fulton

“This Time It’s Real: The End of Unipolarity and the Pax Americana” by Christopher Layne

“The Politics of NGOs, Human Rights and the Arab-Israel Conflict” by Gerald Steinberg

“Terror on Facebook, Twitter, and Youtube” by Gabriel Weimann

“History, International Relations, and Integrated Approaches: Thinking About Greater Interdisciplinarity” by Steve Yetiv

“Western International Law and China’s Confucianism in the 19th Century: Collision and Integration” by Yang Zewei

Next, write your précis, which consists of a citation and two paragraphs.  At the top of your submission, provide the citation for the article you chose.  Beneath that, begin the first paragraph by explaining the author’s general focus and perspective.  What issue is the author examining and what seems to be the theoretical framework?  Continue on by explaining the answers the author found as a result of the study and include at least three reasons that support them.  Why does the author think his or her answers/conclusions are correct?

In the second paragraph start by assuming that the author’s answers/conclusions are in fact correct.  Why are the author’s ideas important?  What are the implications?  What does this mean for related issues or what else might be true?  For clarification, the objective here is to find the implications of the study.  We sometimes refer to implications as the “so what?” question.  What does all of this mean in the bigger picture?

Your submission should be no more than one page long, double-spaced.  Be sure to paraphrase the author’s words into your own words.  Do not quote the article directly.

INTL301 – FINAL Assignment (due 21 March)

Over the past seven weeks you have been exposed to the different agencies that comprise the Intelligence Community, the way Congressional Oversight is conducted and the different capabilities employed (which are referred to as the INTs).  Answer the following question:
