my note: create a meaningful and insightful discussion response using trustworthy outside sources and the textbook pages linked below. 500 words. follow all of the professors directions.
professor: This Discussion Board covers the readings in Chapters 1 and 2.
With your chosen country in mind, please answer the following questions:
What country did you choose to focus on and why?
Is democracy institutionalized in this country?
If YES…
Has its level of institutionalization changed over time, and how difficult would it be to deinstitutionalize democracy?
What formal structures support its institutionalization?
If NO…
What sorts of structures would need to be implemented to support the development of democracy?
Note: Answers will vary but should incorporate key characteristics of judging whether something is “institutionalized” as presented in the textbook. (The “In Focus” box on page 21 should be helpful.)
REQUIREMENTS FOR ORIGINAL RESPONSES:
a clear thesis statement, which directly addresses the question posed and gives readers an indication of the argument you plan to make;
a coherent paragraph structure that emphasizes the main points of your argument and college-level English; and,
a succinct concluding paragraph.
In other words, your posts should always be at least three paragraphs in length: 1) introduction, 2) body paragraph, 3) conclusion.
direct reference to the text and/or PowerPoint slides
Part of what want to see in these posts is evidence of reading the text and understanding the concepts, and the ability to apply them to a real-world situation. Please make every effort to illustrate your comprehension of the reading materials, which includes making direct references to the assigned readings.
a body of factual examples that support your thesis and develop your argument; these examples should be drawn from the assigned readings and properly cited sources researched independently by the student;
The discussion board requires outside research. This means that in addition to reading and referencing the text, you will need to read the news from a major international media source, such as the BBC or the New York Times. Wikipedia,
Encyclopedia Britannica, and other non-academic sources are not allowed. If you are unsure of the reliability of a source, please reach out to Dr. Gabler before using it.
You MUST use the textbook and at least one outside source in this discussion board. Failure to substantially and significantly source to these sources will assure a grade no higher than D.
