    Position Statement and Opening Argument (Nationalism 4 minutes)

    Nationalism provides a stronger and more reliable response to global supply chain disruptions because it prioritizes national security, self-sufficiency, and government responsibility in essential sectors such as food, medicine, and energy. Recent global crises have shown that when international supply chains fail, it is national governmentsnot global markets or institutionsthat are expected to protect citizens from shortages. Nationalism argues that essential goods should not be treated as ordinary commodities subject solely to market forces, but as strategic necessities tied directly to sovereignty and public welfare.

    Global supply chains are designed primarily for efficiency and cost reduction rather than resilience. This makes them highly vulnerable to disruption during pandemics, wars, or geopolitical tensions. The COVID-19 pandemic demonstrated this weakness clearly, as many countries faced shortages of personal protective equipment, medical supplies, and vaccines due to overreliance on foreign manufacturing. In these moments, countries prioritized their own populations through export bans and stockpiling, revealing that national interest ultimately outweighs global cooperation. Nationalism acknowledges this reality and prepares for it by strengthening domestic capacity.

    By promoting domestic production and strategic reserves, nationalism reduces vulnerability to external shocks. Investing in national agriculture, pharmaceutical manufacturing, and energy infrastructure ensures a baseline level of stability even when international trade is disrupted. Countries that maintained domestic food production and emergency reserves were better able to shield their populations from global price spikes and shortages. Nationalism therefore emphasizes preparedness and reliability over dependence on uncertain global networks.


    Rebuttals, Argument Extension, and Clarifications (6 minutes)

    Supporters of globalism often argue that international interdependence reduces risk by diversifying supply sources. However, recent experience suggests that interdependence frequently concentrates risk instead. When production is globally integrated, disruptions in one region can cascade across the entire system. The closure of factories, ports, or shipping lanes in one country can halt production worldwide, creating single points of failure rather than resilience. Nationalism responds by advocating diversified domestic capacity rather than excessive global concentration.

    Another globalist claim is that no country can realistically be self-sufficient. Nationalism does not dispute this in absolute terms, nor does it call for isolation. Instead, it promotes strategic self-sufficiency in critical sectors where failure would threaten national survival. Trade can and should continue for non-essential goods, but food, medicine, and energy are too vital to be outsourced entirely. Nationalism draws a clear line between beneficial cooperation and dangerous dependency.

    Energy security further highlights the strengths of a nationalist approach. Dependence on foreign energy sources exposes nations to political pressure, price volatility, and supply manipulation. Recent geopolitical conflicts have shown how energy dependence can be weaponized, leaving importing countries vulnerable to sudden shortages and economic instability. Nationalism encourages domestic energy production, diversification, and strategic reserves to protect national autonomy and economic stability.

    Food security presents a similar challenge. Global food markets are increasingly unstable due to climate change, conflict, and export restrictions. When shortages occur, exporting countries often prioritize their own populations first, leaving import-dependent nations exposed. Nationalist policies that support local agriculture and maintain food reserves provide a safeguard against famine, inflation, and social unrest during global crises.


    Closing Summary and Final Argument (2 minutes)

    Global supply chain disruptions reveal an unavoidable reality: when crises emerge, nations act primarily in their own interest. Relying on global systems for essential goods places national survival at the mercy of external actors and unpredictable events. Nationalism does not reject global trade, but it reorders priorities by ensuring that the most critical needs of society are met domestically before relying on international markets.

    In conclusion, nationalism offers a more realistic, accountable, and resilient framework for responding to disruptions in food, medicine, and energy supply chains. By prioritizing self-sufficiency, national preparedness, and democratic accountability, it provides governments with the tools necessary to protect their citizens in times of crisis. In an uncertain world, the ability of a nation to feed, heal, and power itself is not a luxuryit is a responsibility.

    Post 1: During my years of nursing in the Emergency Department, I have encountered many situations involving adult patients that have been non-compliant with their physicians treatment plan. Usually, the problem is because of healthcare illiteracy. Patients present with a problem are prescribed medications and they leave the hospital or clinic. The patients I am talking about are those that return with the same problem on multiple occasions. A strategy to help these patients is supported, and its to assume that all patients lack understanding and to try and use plain language, teach back method, and visual aids to name a few (AHRQ Health Literacy Universal Precautions Toolkit, 2023).

    The AHRQ Health is a credible source for information and following these concepts only further confirmed that my patients were comprehending what was being taught. This practice has only influenced me to continue to not assume that all my patients understand what is happening or what is being asked of them. It really helps keep from letting any patient slip through the cracks so that all are getting all the information they need and are understanding. The biggest barrier for many is usually time constraints and the need to move on to the next patient because there are so many at times. The goal is to help that diabetic patient understand why they may need their insulin and the importance of checking their glucose to prevent any worsening symptoms or even DKA, or that patient with hypertension and why they need to take their blood pressure pill even though they feel fine. To prevent a stroke, heart attack, and to prevent kidney disease.

    Post 2: As a bedside nurse, evidence-based practice is crucial to patient safety and positive outcomes, and I often use it every day without even realizing it. One of the times in which I had to step back and consult literature and evidence was when one of my patients began experiencing a possible blood transfusion reaction. In this case, the patient had already received 2 units of packed red blood cells, and I was administering the third unit. After roughly 15 minutes, the patient began displaying vital sign changes. They became tachycardic and hypotensive with no other complaints. As we knew the patient had received blood already, we did not immediately jump to a transfusion reaction. My charge nurse, myself, and my manager all worked together to use PubMed to find a journal article about a study that was done on patients who were receiving multiple units of blood. We ensured that the article was credible by verifying the journal it originated in, confirmed it was published within the last 5 years, and ensured that it was peer-reviewed. After reading the study, we determined it best to follow the facility protocol and treat the patient for a suspected blood transfusion reaction as the study found a high rate of transfusion reaction in patients who were receiving several units of blood.

    In an article in the Journal of Nursing Management, there is discussion around nursing managers and their influence on their employees to instill a culture of evidence-based practice. I think that this speaks also to the APN, those nurses who are trained to lead and to educate. This same article states that one of the biggest barriers that prevents the use of evidence-based practice is the lack of knowledge around how to locate it (Sebire et al., 2025). I do agree that one of the barriers I face now is knowing exactly how to find evidence-based, credible sources for information. Putting any sources through rigorous credibly checks is extremely important not only in academia, but also in nursing of any kind. Positive patient outcomes are always the goal, and using evidence-based practice is one of the best ways to achieve that goal.

    THIS IS A TABLEAU PROJECT:

    For this project, you will be using instructions from Lab 5-1 Alt on page 298.

    Imagine that you are performing an analysis for the CFO of ABC Retail Company, and you need to communicate the results of your analysis back to the CFO. The CFO has asked you to provide a statistical analysis of return on sales among competitors in the retail industry. Imagine that you performed the analysis in Excel only.

    At ABC Retail Company, the CFO defines outliers as any observations beyond the following boundaries:

    • The members of the highest and lowest bin on the histogram.

    Project Instructions:

    • Data preparation:
    • Using the dataset in this assignment, perform Lab 5-1 Alternate on page 298 of your textbook. You do not need to perform the Assessment Steps 1-3. Instead you will be submitting an Excel Workbook with at least four tabs.
    • Source data will be on one tab.
    • Statistical analysis table will be on another tab.
    • Source data with any outliers removed will be on another tab (it’s always a good idea to leave your original dataset intact).
    • Re-performed statistical analysis, after removing the outlier, will be on another tab.
    • Don’t forget to include your charts!
    • Verbal analysis:
    • Create a Word document and draft a hypothetical email to the CFO. Your email should include a recap of the work that you performed (use the AMPS model to help you), including the following:
    • A: Explain what question was being answered and the purpose of the analysis.
    • M: Describe any issues you had in obtaining, cleaning, transforming or using the data.
    • P: Give an overview of your analysis procedures and any issues that may require additional validation.
    • S: Explain why the results may provide value to making decisions, describing items of interest.
    • For this assignment, explain statistical information for return on sales for the retail industry, including the number of companies analyzed, and the average return on sales for the population.
    • Identify the outlier(s) by name in the email.
    • Remove the outlier(s) from the population. After the outlier has been removed, explain statistical information for return on sales for the retail industry, including the number of companies analyzed, and the average return on sales for the population.
    • Submit two files: The Excel Workbook and the Word document.
