This term

This term I am going to write a senior project on America's foreign policies and Obama's role as a world leader. I will be studying how Obamas' foreign policies are different to those of former presidents. The American foreign policies and international role today will be also covered. I will also take a closer look at how Obama is more of a world leader than just a leader of the US.

This term I am planning to study really hard. As well as completing a vaster amount of the assignments we get I wish to learn as much as possible in order to be prepared for an exam. I will read my homework well and do my written work thoroughly.

  2. Sounds like a good senior project, but perhaps a little wide? The "world leader"-aspect might be difficult researching. In my opinion Obama's policy isn't that original - it is classic idealist. What is original however, is his attempt to synthesize idealism and power realism. But in the reality of things, there doesn't seem to be much difference. If you decide to look into this, you should read a bit about Hegelian dialectics, as what Obama is doing can be seen as a clear example of it.

    I don't understand why you would want to study harder simply because of an exam, though. You should be studying harder because it's interesting and makes you more human. Does this mean you're not parttaking in the russ-thing? (I didn't; no regrets yet)

    Thanks for the paragraphs, by the way. They are quite amazing.

  3. Thanks a lot for your tips, Magnus! You write about terms which I don't even know the meaning of but I'll try and sort out what they mean!

    I'm not only studying because of exams but it is important to me to get good grades seeing that I'm applying to a university in which it is really hard to get in. However I am actually taking part in a russ bus project as well :P

  5. I think your topic for your senior project seems interesting, and i think it is a good idea to look at Obama's role outside of America. He is one of the most powerfull people in the world right now, and he has a big impact on the rest of the world. Good luck! =)
