JUST 2 Paragraphs in NOT MORE THAN 4 hours
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 listed below. As you read, highlight the questions the author is trying to answer. Then highlight the answers the author found to those questions.
“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
“Terror on Facebook, Twitter, and Youtube" by Gabriel Weimann
“History, International Relations, and Integrated Approaches: Thinking About Greater Interdisciplinarity" by Steve Yetiv
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? What seems to be the theoretical framework (e.g. realism, liberalism or constructivism), and why? 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 Do not quote the article directly. Please use 12 pitch, Times New Roman font and 1 inch margins. Finally, please include your last name in the filename and upload your work as a .doc or .docx file
