Security Comparison

Description

ONLY FOR THE COUNTRY OF ITALY. 

Building on “security comparison chart”, and assuming you’re NOT part of any other pact/alliance, create a Hard Security group pact. This will be something similar to an alliance (like NATO). Your paper is also an attempt to lure in a “great power”. If your group already has a great power, lure in another one. The agreement needs to meet the following criteria: 

• Outline what each of you contributes
• Outline what you expect from the great power you’re luring. 
• Needs to be very formal. Very detailed. 
• Needs to clearly include these concepts, but NOT necessarily word-for-word.
  • State size
  • Punching above your weight
  • Global great power
  • Regional great power
  • Balance
  • Bandwagon
  • Monopoly of violence
  • Just War Theory
  • Securitization process (as of Copenhagen School)
  • Hard security
  • Soft security
  • WMD, MAD
• Minimum 5 non-academic sources (they must be from Gov’t websites or Think Tanks). Yes, can be sources you previously used.
• 300 words (double-space, just for ease of reading).
• Needs to be VERY WELL proof-read.
