Containment and Hegemony

Author
Doremus, Paul
Description
A winner of the John S. Knight Assignment Sequence Prize, this sequence originates from Government 100, Power and Politics: Theories of Hegemony. The sequence presents the semester's nine essay assignments, which focus on persuasive argumentation. Early writings emphasize the description and analysis of international relations and foreign policy theories; students then practice applying theories to particular documents and historical periods. Assignments go on to involve taking policy positions and integrating those positions with theoretically informed long-range strategies. Progressively more sophisticated techniques for recognizing and constructing effective arguments are introduced. 12 page pdf
