Continue your CODEL project by analyzing the U.S. foreign policy interests in your country. This sections should provide Members an analysis of issues affecting your country -- AND THE REGION! -- that impact whether and how U.S. criminal law or its investigative agencies are implicated. For instance, government instability may prevent U.S. agencies from safely operating in your country. Or your country's significance in the region may incentivize the U.S. to provide investigative assistance to the country's law enforcement agencies. *Analytical writing answers how something does what it does or why it is as it is. Below are some questions for you to think about as you begin your research: Is your country regionally strategic to U.S. national security or trade? Is your country an adversary, ally or both to the U.S.? Does your country have economic, agricultural or financial significance for the U.S.? Does the U.S. have a military presence in your country or is it otherwise strategically important for the U.S. military? Are there any treaties or trade agreements in place with your country? Does your country receive foreign aidLinks to an external site. from the U.S.? You should focus on current events and provide Members an analysis of how these issues interact with each other, not simply a list of foreign policy topics. Cite your sources! This assignment is for completion credit only and is intended to adequately prepare you for your final project. Submit a DRAFT, NOT AN OUTLINE in the form of a TEXT ENTRY ONLY. Evidence of research reflecting the list above Draft citation page The instructor or TA will provide feedback to each final project component. This feedback is intended to help you improve your final memo and we expect to see feedback incorporated into the final memo. Previous Next

These materials focus on two of the most famous covert action operations since the Second World War involving the 1953 coup in Iran and the 1961 Bay of Pigs invasion of Cuba. What conclusions can we draw from these cases about the risks and benefits of covert action? In the case of the Iran operation, why do you think this operation remains so controversial today even in academic circles?

How to approach case study work in this course: Read and watch the case study materials. The case studies have been chosen as the most relevant and impactful examples of course topics. Answer prompt 1 and either prompt 2 or 3 below in Canvas by Thursday before moving to the YellowDig Discussions. The Yellowdig Discussion will ask you dig deeper into the cases and further Answer prompt 1 and either prompt 2 or 3: After finishing the case study, what questions do you still have about its place in the modern U.S. intelligence community? What element is prompting this question for you? Answer a colleague’s question from your own perspective. There are no right or wrong answers. Find another case study or resource related to your, or your classmates’, questions and expand on its relevance. Important: Use a line break between the two sections you select for easy distinction.

Discuss the U.S. role in the internationalization of public corruption and TOC enforcement In Module 5, we learned about the correlation between transnational organized crime and public corruption. Policing the Globe cites bribery as an example of a crime that, in the span of less than two decades, went from commonplace as a means to facilitating government operations to prohibited via United Nations Convention. And yet the corruption index shows us that corruption continues to infiltrate or even thrive in certain countries. Your response should answer the following: Why does it matter if other governments embrace financial influence as part of their operations? In the U.S., corporations and interest groups exert tremendous influence on lawmakers via lobbying and campaign contributions. What makes the U.S. different from other countries engaged in "bribery"? Should the U.S. care about bribery globally? Why? Include our Module 5 case study -- Nigeria -- in your response. Respond to the discussion question, maximum 300 words.
Covert operations are designed to hide or obscure the involvement of the U.S. Government, making evaluation of the effectiveness of these operations difficult if not impossible. But these operations also raise for many observers troubling questions about whether they are an appropriate instrument for a democratic government, as well as the dangers inherent in their use. For the intelligence community, they also threaten to blur the lines between intelligence and policy since the intelligence community is in effect charged with carrying out policy. Looking at the case involving Iran in the PBS video and the article by Ray Takeyh, what is your impression of the effectiveness of this particular covert action operation? What do you think is the legacy of this operation? What does this say about the unintended consequences of even successful operations? Instructions Ensure that your post and replies engage and encourage discussion. Use these opportunities to cultivate and share your perspective on the issues and challenge those of your classmates.
It's time to wrap up your final project! Taking all of your research and previous components of your final project, provide recommendations to the Members on the CODEL. Include 3 to 5 recommendations that address criminal and counterterrorism issues in your country and incorporate the principles of character-driven leadership. First and foremost -- your recommendations MUST relate to the purpose of the CODEL, namely the CRIMINAL and TERRORISM issues in your country. Remember -- know your audience! Congress is the 1st Branch of Government and is responsible for enacting federal law and allocating spending. It cannot negotiate treaties (only approve them) or deploy military personnel (it can declare war or use of force authorizations and funds the military). But Members of Congress can exert their influence in a variety of ways: They can: 1. Support bilateral agreements or treaties, 2. Lend support for or offer to influence Executive Branch policies on international funding, diplomatic engagement and foreign policy, 3. Exercise influence over the Executive Branch through oversight hearings, letters or reporting requirements to federal agencies, or informal inquiries, 4. Authorize foreign aid and funding for U.S. law enforcement agencies, or 5. Enact laws that support criminal and counter-terrorism investigations outside its borders. Your recommendations should, therefore, be tailored to the role of Congress. When developing recommendations, I encourage you to get creative! Thinks of ways Members of Congress may exert influence over policy Also think about what motivates your recommendations. Are you advancing U.S. policy prerogatives? Advancing regional interests? Helping an ally? Pressuring a foe? All of the above? Examples A well-written policy recommendation includes an executable action that Members of Congress can offer to the foreign leaders, law enforcement personnel, or others they will meet with in your country. HINT: don't make promises your CODEL can't keep! For example, Members of the Foreign Affairs and Judiciary Committees cannot GUARANTEE that legislation will pass the House. BUT -- they can INTRODUCE legislation. Members of Congress can REQUEST an oversight hearing. BUT -- a Committee Chairman (your boss!) can PROMISE a hearing, because the Chairman runs the committee's schedule. Members of Congress can write letters to the President or Cabinet members or informally engage the Executive Branch.

Instructions are attached in a word document as well: Write a thoughtful and well-organized essay that engages with primary texts discussed in the course. The essay should be approximately 7 pages, typed, and double-spaced. You are expected to respond to the topic by writing answers that make frequent and specific reference to the text in order to support your argument using direct quotations. You may also use indirect references as needed but these don’t supplant the need for using direct textual evidence. Remember to cite the text where appropriate using Chicago style footnotes. Do not respond to the topic with a simple summary of the text and do not provide your informal and personal opinions on the questions. You must make your arguments through a careful analysis of the text, relying on textual evidence to build your case, in the form of quotations, paraphrases etc. All arguments and claims you make must be supported by an interpretation of the text. It is essential that you synthesize your thoughts about the question into a critical assessment of the issue, encapsulated in a THESIS. The best papers will present and defend a sharp, argumentative thesis about the texts, rather than recounting or restating the arguments in the texts. Topic: How is religious formation shaped by its social and political context? Carefully analyze the writings of these two thinkers: Sayyid Qutb, and Leila Ahmed. PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF YOU NEED ANY CLARIFICATIONS, OR HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR ME.
