I am an active participant in my school’s MUN club, and I’m planning for next summer. I would like a long-term, perhaps studying abroad, program in which high school students can learn about international politics, political science, the UN, or anything related to politics. I’m in the top 10% of my grade easily, probably even within the top 5%. I would love to engage myself in a competitive program and learn more about politics, particularly international. Cost probably is not an issue.

A list would be helpful. Thank you.

Define power and authority, and discuss their differences, similarities, and variations. How does each term relate to politics and the economy? Be sure to give clear examples for each point made.

Discuss the relationship between politics and religion by examining wars of religion of the Dutch Revolt and the French Wars of Religion.

I have to write a two page essay on this. I already have things, but I’m running out of things to say.

It seems that politics (US) makes everyone so hostile. People never want to discuss the possibility of their view being wrong. They get mad, shout a few names, and claim the other person is bad.
I almost wish were a communist state or had a dictatorship that declared that it was illegal to talk about our government so people would just shut up.

Can anyone recommend a good book on government and politics in England? Particularly about government in the 70s and the Thatcher period?

giggletam asked:


I’m clueless about politics, or how our country really works. I want to know more, but am not interested in anything too deep or complicated, just yet. A college class is not an option, but are there any good reads or websites anyone can recommend to get me started?
