  • Commentaries

    Commentaries should be no longer than one page single-spaced. There is no need to provide citations or a bibliography. If you cannot resist the urge to cite, refer to the author of the article in parenthesis and I will assumethat it corresponds to the syllabus. The point is that these commentaries fit onto a single page.

    Commentaries must address subject matter raised by the weeks readings. Within those
    parameters, the discussion may address any component of the readings that piques your interest.Treat the commentaries as editorial reflections on the material at hand. This may include specific objections to the literature, broad commentaries, issues you would like to explore, et cetera. Though the direction is up to you, the compositions should avoid trivial concerns or summarizing the readings.

    For this week, you should write two separate commentaries one page single-spaced each, each one must be written as an independent Word document on its own.

    The first commentary should be based on Goldgeier, James, and Brian D. Taylor. 2025. NATO Did Not Cause Putins Imperial War. The Washington Quarterly 48 (4):67-82.

    The second commentary should be based on Larsen, Henrik. 2021. NATO in an Illiberal World. The RUSI Journal 166 (3): 84-92.

    Requirements: one page single-spaced each
