Legitimacy and Political Movements
Each of our cases has had to deal with legitimacy issues and nation-states have a multitude of options for handling internal conflict and ethnic strife that impacts the ability of states to govern themselves.
Begin by explaining clearly the concepts of legitimacy and internal conflict; then choose a facet of legitimacy or political movements in two of our case countries and compare them.
Give a detailed and clearly presented explanation of the legitimacy issue or the political movements you are examining.
How have the two countries you have chosen to compare dealt with such issues?
How have these problems influenced issues of governance and how do the political systems in the states you have chosen reflect values systems particular to that country or Asia in general?
Be mindful about the cases which you use to compare and develop that comparison in a separate section of your essay.
Comparison should include the rationale for choosing these countries and cases - what have you learned from this comparison, what did you expect to find?
How do these similarities or differences speak to the major themes of the course? Why is this comparison useful and/or illuminating?
