Research and write on the world’s politics in relation to state and power

Prior to posting, please review the Lecture 7 Module in the content area. Remember all posts must consist of two paragraphs that are 4-5 sentences each. Failure to follow instructions will result in a 0. In addition, when posting, click on weekly discussion topic and click “create thread”. Finally, in order to receive full credit, you must respond to one other student posts. Responses should be thoughtful and insightful. Comments like “I agree” will not count.

In the Lecture 7 Module lesson, you learned about the State and Power. For this week’s posting, I am combining the weekly subject material discussion and the current event discussion. Please find a current event article for this week that illustrates the power of the state. In the posting, be sure to discuss how the article relates to a State’s power and whether or not the State’s power has been enhanced or declined. Also explain if the increase/decrease in that particular state’s power has led to an increase/decrease in another country’s power. Remember to put the title of the article, the author’s name and the exact URL to the article at the top of the posting. DO NOT USE THE UNITED STATES. IT HAS TO BE ANOTHER COUNTRY.
