For this final assignment, students will read the case study “Environmental Scarcity and Violent Conflict: The Case of Rwanda” and write a four to five-page paper relevant to this case study. In this paper, students will choose a human security problem from their selected case study and complete a mapping (diagram form) of a human security problem to include economic, political, environmental, and social factors at the individual, group, national, regional, international, and global levels (as outlined in the assignment sheet).This mapping can be made in outline form and should be no longer than 2 pages. I have uploaded a diagram and a sample outline to this assignment sheet to assist you with this mapping. Please ensure your mapping identifies factors/conditions unique to each level of analysis (in other words, don’t simply repeat the same condition across several levels of analysis). The remaining 2-3 pages of your paper should include an introductory paragraph that briefly summarizes your case study, followed by an analysis relevant to the following questions:1. How do economic, political, environmental, and social factors contribute to this human security problem?2. How does this human security problem compound economic, political, environmental, and social issues?3. What new human security issues have or are likely to result (if any)?4. Why is taking a multi-faceted, multi-level approach to addressing human security problems important?Students are expected to conduct some research supporting their analysis (at least two sources). Don’t forget to wrap up your conclusions in a closing paragraph. Papers should be formatted according to Chicago Style citations. Please include section headings so you and I can easily see where you answered each question posed by the assignment. Students should include in-text citations and a list of sources.
