In class, I will rely upon you to share your insights from the relevant chapters with each other in class discussions. Further, the members of each group will be assigned one chapter to devote particular attention to.
Group 1: Chapter 1
Group 2: Chapter 3
Group 3: Chapter 5
Group 4: Chapter 2
Group 5: Chapter 4
Group 6: Chapter 6
By March 25 for groups 1,2,4, and 5, and on March 30 for groups 3 and 6, you will make a detailed outline of your one assigned chapter - although each member of your group will be working on the same chapter, the assignent is for you to turn in your individual work. This is not group work. The outline should include at least a paragraph to explain the argument of the chapter, and then outline the evivdence used throughout the chapter. You will turn this in to me as a paper copy, and an e-mailed electronic copy. This electronic copy should be anonymous, and I will post all of them on the class website. In this way, you can use your peer's work to help you prepare for the final exam and to understand even those chapters that you did not read. You will have four or five outlines to look at for each chapter, so even if some outlines are very poor, each group should also have at least two good outlines.
You will have a short 2 page essay due on April 1st: Imagine that an American entrepenuer has discovered a new fruit in the tropical forests - addicto-berries - and wants to grow lots of it and sell it on world markets. Initial trials have indicated that first-world consumers love "Addicto-Juice." A previously isolated and undeveloped island nation-state has decided to pursue economic development by means of growing addicto-berries, which are perfectly suited for their climate. They have asked you for advice. How should they do this - what should they watch out for, what should they avoid? Note that they are not asking you whether they should do it - that decision has been made.
