First Assignment Question

What is the foreign policy bureaucracy, its components and history? How does it both help and hurt the president's ability to govern?

Designing your answer

Remember, a full paragraph includes the following:

1. main point

2. evidence (from the reading in Rosati and Scott and Week Four Lessons especially with maybe an example or case study)

3. analysis (what it means)

4. conclusion/transition (why it's important)

A substantial answer would be a thesis (overall answer) that contains at least three main points.

Then your post will have this structure:

Thesis statement plus three reasons why.

Reason 1

Reason 2

Reason 3

Conclusion

Remember to read your texts, watch the videos, and read any other materials in Week Four Lessons. Include those ideas in your discussions.

Also, feel free to include a link to a website or a journal article to share with your classmates to support your views.
Please include in-text citations and a reference page.

Second Assignment Question

The focus this week is on security and development. It seems as though few topics have received as much attention as the topic of development, yet it remains elusive in many states.

This forum discussion explores the impact of war on development and the impact of peace on development in an effort to identify potential explanations for why some states fail to develop.

Discuss the relationship between war and development versus peace and development in the state you're focused on in this class.

Instructions: Your initial post should be at least 350 words

Please include in-text citations and a reference page.
