Each student will be responsible discussing the essential features of a government of a nation, not in Western Europe. Be careful to discuss the essential features of this government form. How are laws enacted or policies chosen? What role do elections play? What is the constitutional structure? What are the political parties or players? The assignment is not to re-write the chapter or paragraphs in the chapter of the textbook, but to summarize the facts and information. This paper is due by November 14, 2016 for more certainty.
In the country report paper, it is expected that there will be a bibliography and footnotes. If footnotes and bibliography are missing the paper cannot receive a grade of \”A\” no matter how well written or well researched. When quoting, use quotation marks. There should be comparative analysis in the paper, not just description. The textbook by Roskin needs to be a critical source of information.
Here are some sources to use:
The CIA world fact book:
http://www.odci.gov/cia/publications/factbook/index.html
The Library of Congress: Portals to the World:
http://www.loc.gov/rr/international/portals.html
This is a part of the competitive industry analysis. The company that I am working on is Target Corporation and the industries that you should look into are Retail and Supercenter Industries. I attached an example of this assignment. Please follow this format. There are three parts:
1- Approach
2- Evidence
3- Strategic Implications
You can use as many sources as you want but I believe 6-8 is ideal. You must use reliable sources. DO NOT use any sources for \”Approach\” and \”Strategic Implications\”. You can use only for \”Evidence\” part. For other two parts (approach and strategic implications) you should come up with your own ideas and thoughts. Do not forget that this is an industry not a company analysis. You should find three bullet points for Retail Industry and three bullet points for Supercenter Industry considering \”Rate of Innovation\” (6 total).
The attached example is for \”Industry Product Life Cycle\”. But as I mentioned above, my part is \”Rate of Innovation in Industry\”. Do not forget to insert footnotes as I need to know which bulletpoint is taken from which source.

Have you ever been relating a problem to a friend or co-worker, when they interrupted you by stating that they knew exactly what you meant, the same thing happened to
them? In other words, evaluating you from their autobiography.Have you been guilty of doing the same to others, judging them and their problems from your perspective?
