In at least 500 words, please write an essay to the President about
developing a global strategy for promoting nuclear disarmament with North Korea
and other nations. Your essay should specifically address the following
questions:
1) What is the stated goal of the U.S. Defense strategy? Is it to deter
nuclear build up among all nations, only allow the U.S. to possess nuclear
armaments, or specifically force North Korea to eliminate its weapons programs?
As Secretary of Defense you can shape U.S. policy on nuclear weapons in any way
you would like. But You must make your objective clear.
2) Based on what you’ve learned about international relations, how would you
recommend organizing governments from other nations as well as other
international organizations (IGOs, NGOs, the UN, etc.) to help you achieve your
primary objective?
3) Specifically describe how you might use international political economy
to achieve your objective? For instance, what role could the IMF, World Bank,
or other global economic forces play within your strategy? Again, you can
provide any viewpoint you like but be as specific and detailed as you can be.
Remember: you are advising the President of the United States!
