Instruction
Assignment:
Each group should write a geopolitical simulation scenario that is no more than a page based on
the following criteria. Creativity is encouraged!
Topic: The geopolitical simulation scenario should be on an issue related to either: (1)
international trade (ch.8); or (2) environment and population (ch.11).
Actors: The geopolitical simulation scenario should include 10 actors in the international
system (states, international organizations, individuals, non-state actors, etc)
Strategies: As a group, identify which of the 10 actors you would like to be and then
present strategies of decision-making (ch. 4) that your actor would utilize to address the
geopolitical scenario your group drafted. Please describe some challenges your actor
would likely encounter in the geopolitical scenario – for example, would your group
choose to engage in conflict? If so, with which actors?
Terms: When writing your scenario please use at least 5 terms from Ch 8 and/or Ch 10
