Throughout Humanities 210, we've examined a lot of different factors that ultimately culminate in cultural conflict. In this activity, you are going to select a current or historical conflict (see the video in this week's presentation for a list of wars in the 20th century) and analyze why the conflict occurred or is occurring.
You should specifically look for issues related to economic, cultural, political, and territorial causes of conflict in your analysis. In this assignment, you are going to write an essay examining a cultural conflict that exists between two non-U.S. cultures. This paper should contain 3-5 sources (using APA style).
The goal of this assignment is to have you think critically about how and why these cultures are engaging in conflict, the influence of power within the conflict, and how you would approach these groups as a cultural mediator in the peacebuilding process.
As you select your conflict, start looking for academic literature that will help you support the arguments you will make within the paper itself. Please read the assignment instructions well to get your started. For this discussion, select the conflict you plan on analyzing for your final paper. Only one student can analyze a particular conflict.
To make this process easier, when posting your conflict, please post the name of the conflict in the subject line. Once you have chosen your conflict, start by answering the following questions.
1- What conflict have you chosen? Why?
2. What are your initial impressions of the economic, cultural, political, and territorial causes of the conflict?
3. If the conflict is one from the past, what was the final outcome? If the conflict is currently ongoing, do you see a possible ending to the conflict that will lead to peacebuilding? If so, what? If not, why not?
