This course will require you to write a 5-6 page final paper on a topic of interest to you The thesis states the argument of your paper (or what research question you are answering). Then give an outline of what you will do in your paper. How will you back up your argument. Example: Intro: Thesis (above) Body 1: Show what policies Zelaya sought to implement to improve the lives of the Honduran people and why this was considered dangerous to the US Body 2: I will look at the history of US foreign policy towards Honduras and Central America and show the damage the US has done in the region, particularly in Nicaragua. Body 3: I will contrast US foreign policy towards Honduras versus Venezuela and Colombia. What role has the US military played in the region? Have Trump, Obama, Bush, Biden and Clinton continued to see Honduras as the US’s backyard and as a US colony? Conclusion: Today Honduras is a narco-dictatorship. I will look at the present day conditions with COVID and violence on the streets of Tegucigalpa, San Pedro Zula and the rest of the country to show how the high rates of gangs, drugs and violence are related to the coup and the rise of neoliberalism.
