帶回家的期末考
Final Take-Home Examination
請回答三個問題。每一題的答案不可超過七頁,較少是比較好的。請務必註明引用文獻,這是很重要的。請不要重覆你之前報告做過的內容。開始回答前先閱讀全部三個問題。

利用我們在這學期學過的理論、概念與範疇,設計一個分析性的架構用來學習與評估大戰略。由於你只有有限的時間與空間,你必須在這些項目作出選擇,但不可復製它。並解釋你作出這些選擇的原因。
Devise an analytic framework for the study and assessment of grand strategy. Employ theories, concepts, and categories with which we have worked this semester. Because you have a limited amount of time and space, you must choose from this menu, but not replicate it. Explain the reasons for your choices.

二、利用你在之前答案發展出來的分析性架構,就我們在本課程學習過的其中兩個國家在同一時期的大戰略作出比較與對比。你必須為所選擇的個案辯護,所以不要隨意選兩個出來。(例如:第一次世界大戰前的英國和法國)。
Employ the analytic framework that you developed in the preceding answer to compare and contrast the grand strategies of any two of the states we have studied in this class within a given period. You must defend the choice of cases, so do not just pick any two. (Example: Britain and France prior to WWI.)
-
利用同樣的分析性架構,就同一國家在不同時期的大戰略作出比較與對比。(例如:威廉統治下的德國與希特勒統治下的德國)(你亦可使用前兩題中用過的國家)s
Use the same analytic framework to compare and contrast the grand strategies of a single state in different periods (Example Germany under Wilhelm, Germany under Hitler.) (You may use one of the states that you used in the preceding question.)
