Week 2 Discussion Communicating National Interests
Examples of Effective Communication During World War I, World War II, and the Cold War Prepare: Read Chapters 2, 3, and 4 of the course text.
Examples of Effective Communication During World War I, World War II, and the Cold War Reflect: Effective and timely communications among international actors is essential for a peaceful and predictable international environment. History is replete with examples of both effective, timely communications and ineffective, poorly timed communications between international actors. Effective, timely communications enables actors to share interests, to establish constructive and collaborative relationships, and to maintain stable and progressive foreign affairs. Ineffective, inopportune communications can result in conflict, reduce cooperation, and increase stress and fear among international actors. International disputes, diplomatic incidents, and even wars, have resulted from ineffective, inopportune communications. Success and failure can often be attributed to similar or contrasting theoretical perspectives on how to conduct foreign affairs. Therefore, a more in-depth understanding of how communications are sent, received, and interpreted is needed in order to understand global politics.
Write: In your initial post of at least 200 words, complete only the portions you are assigned:
· If your last name begins with A – M, you must complete the following:
1. Identify, from the course text readings on World War I, World War II, and the Cold War, one example from each conflict of effective, timely communications of national interests between international actors.
2. Explain what factor(s) made the communications effective and timely.
· If your last name begins with N – Z, you must complete the following:
1. Identify, from the course text readings on World War I, World War II, and the Cold War, one
example from each conflict of ineffective, poorly timed communications of national interests
between international actors.
2. Explain what factor(s) made the communications ineffective and poorly timed.
Examples of Effective Communication During World War I, World War II, and the Cold War Respond to Peers:
By Day 7, respond to at least two of your classmates’ initial posts. Your peer responses must be at least 75 words each. As you reply to your classmates, attempt to take the conversation further by examining their claims or arguments in more depth or responding to the posts that they make to you. Keep the discussion on target and try to analyze things in as much detail as you can. If your last name begins with A – M, respond to someone whose last name begins with N – Z. If your last name begins with N – Z, respond to someone whose last name begins with A – M. For example, discuss the similarities or differences between the main factors that contributed to the effectiveness and the main factors that contributed to the ineffectiveness of the communications
