instructions: prepare a short essay of NO MORE THAN ONE PAGE reacting to the discussion question for a given lecture period. Be analytical: This means making a logical or empirical point, not just appreciating things. Answer the question, explicitly, briefly, and then provide a defense of your position. Points will be given for taking a stand and also for the (logical/empirical) rigor of your argument. Be “punchy”, impactful: You only have one page to make your case. Discussion: Is China’s “nine-dash line” just like the U.S. “Monroe Doctrine”? only use ch2 of each book attached.
