  • Homeland Security (How practical application contributes to theory)

    $37.50

    How practical application contributes to theory.

    Part 1
    Referencing at least five peer-reviewed journal articles or scholarly books, discuss views on the relationship between theory and application or practice. How can a theory guide or inform practice? What are the issues involved in translating theory into practice? Be sure to keep in mind the various conceptions of theory you discussed in Question 1. That was Explain how the theory adds or may add to our understanding of your field and/or research topic.

    Part 2
    Referencing at least five peer-reviewed journal articles, fully describe a theory of current interest in your topic area. A theory is currently of interest if there are articles published on it in the past five years. This theory may or may not be the same as the one you examined in Question 1, Part 3. Describe a current view of the theory, not the founder’s view or a classic view. Your answer should be no more than three pages long.
    Part 3
    Identify at least five scholarly articles (published in the last 5 years) that address how the theory you discussed in Part 2 has actually been applied. (Draw on your response to Part 1 in order to define what you mean by an application of a theory to an actual problem or situation.) Critically evaluate the appropriateness of the uses to which the theory has been applied. Consider, for example: Are the applications premised upon an accurate understanding of the theory and its scope? Do the applications “go beyond” what the theory claims? Is the reasoning linking application and theory sound?
    The structure of your paper should be as follows:
    Title page
    Body (10-15 pages, no more or less; APA Style; use appropriate headings for organization of the paper)
    References (APA Style)

  • The US foreign policy culture

    $5.00

    Folks,

    Thus far we have considered some of the underlying assumptions figuring into US foreign policy culture. In this thread I would like to draw these things together with the history you have been going through over the past week and will be exploring during the next two.

    We can make the argument that the development of this culture can be clearly seen in the formative wars of expansion in 1812, 1848, and 1898 with the prototyping of hegemony taking place during 1916-1918. In each of these wars (and the Civil War) the tension between realism (and realpolitik) and American ideals is heightened.

    Let’s look at the history of these moments of expansion and ask whether or not the US did all the wrong things for the right reasons (or vice versa) and whether or not the development of US power undermines the commitment to its ideals. Finally, how are we seeing this reflected in our contemporary debates?

    Have at it!
