The following questions are suggestions for information to research for country paper to write & develop your analysis. Do not answer the questions for your paper; following are ideas to consider what to research.

Think S.W.O.T. – Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats

Examine the geopolitical realities:

Do geographical barriers protect the country from external threats? Do the ethnic, religious, cultural, and educational characteristics effect the country? What is the system of government & how is political stability of the country?

Look at the government structure: does government allow vibrant trade or it interfere? Address possible implications of not being self-sufficient with regards to feeding, educating & employing its citizens. Is the militarily vulnerable? Is economy diverse? Is the country economically powerful? Is the country a member of regional economic organizations? How stable is the country & the region they are in? What are the destabilizing forces? Are their tensions between major actors?

Examine the economic realities:

Is this a developed or developing nation? Look at agricultural & manufacturing sectors and the country’s natural resources. Does infrastructure accommodate economic activity (I.E. ports, rails, rivers, universities)? What are the major exports and imports (for describing trade flows – who they trade with)? Is work force skilled/unskilled & professional? Look at economic and trade indicators such as per capita GDP, exports and imports as a percentage of GDP, etc.

Analysis:

Taking into account the information described above, describe the country’s economic & political aspects, strengths and weaknesses of country, and address any challenges or potential liabilities posed by internal or external threats.

Address the country’s future as your research develops. What does country need to do to prosper & develop? Identify the pitfalls to be avoided. Does the future hold peace & stability or conflict? Again Think S.W.O.T.

Sources:

Works Cited page needs minimum 7 sources from high level sources, including 3 peer reviewed academic articles from ‘UT data base’ (check search boxes for peer review & full text). Examples of data bases: Academic One File/GALE, Source Complete/Premier, Europa, ProQuest, Columbia International Affairs, and Academic Search Premier/EBSCO). Use intext citations.

Check UT Library site for Country Studies & Intercultural Communication: Start on Library Main Page (use My UT to access library). Scroll down to Research Guides (click box) at bottom of page. Scroll down about 1/3 to Country Studies & Intercultural Communication (click), see on left, ‘Country Reports & Peer Reviewed Articles’, and on right search for ‘articles in the library data bases’ – go to Source Complete, see Country Reports.

Possible additional sources: Center for Strategic & International Studies, Council on Foreign Relations, World Bank, CIA World Factbook, Freedom House, and United Nations. Country Reports are helpful; remember they are country reports, not academic journals.

Additional sources after min. 7: Global Road Warrior may help picking a country. Newspapers and .com sites are not academic. If using newspapers, it must over the 7 min. Avoid encyclopedias. Use college level material. Note the difference between peer reviewed article in a journal versus a report (too much data, not enough analysis) and newspapers (snapshot of the moment – may get some context but no depth). Plagiarism will earn you a failing grade.

For Country News Discussion, use Nexus Uni or Reuters or BBC under International News – Country Studies & Intercultural Communication.
