The ratification of the U.S. Constitution saw the emergence of two, opposed political parties: the Federalists and Antifederalists.
Federalist v. Antifederalist Papers
For the Unit 2 Assignment you will compose a 500 word reflective essay based on the debate between the Federalists and Antifederalists during the ratification of the U.S. Constitution.
The ratification of the U.S. Constitution saw the emergence of two, opposed political parties: the Federalists and Antifederalists. As each of the thirteen colonial legislatures sought to ratify the U.S. Constitution, both Federalists and Antifederalists produced political ‘papers’ often published in sympathetic newspapers that explained their ideological rationale.

Although you may pick other Federalist and/or Antifederalist documents you may find these documents of particular interest:
Federalist No. 10
Federalist No. 51
Federalist No. 78
Brutus No. 15
A list of all Federalist Papers
A list of all Anti-Federalist Papers
Within a 500 word essay please include:
An introduction.
How do Federalists and Antifederalists plan to organize the federal government?
Based on your academic understanding of federalism which party would you align yourself with? Why?
Support your answer(s) with information obtained from the text and at least two Federalist and/or Anti-Federalist essays.

By now, you have gained some insight regarding political ideologies and how they are applied to American government.

When you consider the origins of the ideology you chose, you will want to explain when, how, and why you identify with this particular ideology.
Within a 500 Word essay please include:
An introduction.
Were you surprised by the political ideology to which you belong? Why or why not?

Unit 9 Assignment
Clash of Civilizations
For the Unit 9 Assignment, you will compose a 500 word essay comparing Huntington’s ‘Clash of Civilizations?’ article with one other political scientist and/or academic who has written a response to Huntington’s ‘Clash of Civilizations?’ article.
Within the introduction to Harvard Professor Samuel P. Huntington’s 1993, seminal political science article, ‘The Clash of Civilizations?’, the author noted,
World politics is entering a new phase and intellectuals have not hesitated to proliferate visions of what it will be, the end of history, the return of traditional rivalries between nation states, and the decline of the nation state from the conflicting pulls of tribalism and globalism, among others. Each of these visions catches aspects of the emerging reality. Yet they all miss a crucial, indeed a central, aspect of what global politics is likely to be in the coming years.
It is my hypothesis that the fundamental source of conflict in this new world will not be primarily ideological or primarily economic. The great divisions among humankind and the dominating source of conflict will be cultural. Nation states will remain the most powerful actors in world affairs, but the principal conflicts of global politics will occur between nations and groups of different civilizations. The clash of civilizations will dominate global politics. The fault lines between civilizations will be the battle lines of the future. (Huntington, 1993)
Huntington’s full article can be found here. Since Huntington’s article was published in 1993 many political scientists and/or academic have written in response to Huntington’s thesis – either agreeing or disagreeing with the Harvard professor’s ideas.
However, since the September 11, 2001 attacks on U.S. soil, Huntington’s thesis has renewed academic discourse.
Reference
Huntington, S. P. (1993). The Clash of Civilizations?. Foreign Affairs, 72(3), 22.
Within a 500 word essay please include
An introduction.
Provide a brief summary of Huntington’s thesis.
Compare and contrast Huntington’s arguments with one other political scientist and/or academic.
You will find a voluminous list of academic articles within Purdue Global online library. A keyword search for ‘clash of civilizations’ is an excellent starting place.
Support your answer(s) with information obtained from the text and with Huntington’s and the other political scientist and/or academic’s articles.
How do you understand these two, competing or aligned articles within America’s war on terror?
A conclusion.
Correct grammar and syntax.
