Title: “The Contributions of Feminist Scholars to International Relations: Addressing Criticisms and Examining Intersectionality”
these are the feedback from my prof but i dont understand what he wants. please fulfil his expectations and avoid anything necessary. really emphasis on “contributions”.
1. to demonstrate deeper understanding of the literature, when you write ‘challenged by the feminist scholars’ gives us examples and references, e.g. True, Enloe, Sjoberg etc etc.
2. your introduction could be more specific. You say “brought focus on the ways that global issues including conflicts, security, development, and human rights significantly impact on women”. By only saying ‘brought focus’ it is too general. Can you be more specific?
3. Similarly, you say “, addressing criticism levelled against feminist within traditional international relations perspective.” But what exactly is the criticism? And what is your argument? Has feminism made a valuable contribution or not?
When you use specific terms like “second wave of feminism” you need a reference to show the source of that term.
intersectionality is good, but perhaps introduced too soon here as it might be a response to feminism’s critics. We need to see more of feminism’s contributions to IR theory, then criticism, before response to criticism. Also your discussion here seems to be a little too far removed from international relations and the academic of International Relations to be entirely relevant to the question. I am not saying it is irrelevant just make sure it answers the question. -

Comparing the Mean Lengths of Resident and Transient Orca Populations Introduction The orca, or killer whale, is a highly intelligent and charismatic species of cetacean found in many parts of the world. In the Pacific Northwest
For this course project we had to compare the means of two different populations. I chose to do the resident and transient orca populations and compare their length means. below i will include the instructuions to the assigments I will also include the files of the data sets and the previous assigments done that the information is supposed to be used from. I will also include two refrences that i have used already.
My research question is: Does the mean of the lengths of Transient orca population differ from the mean lengths of the Resident orca population.
Instructions:
Topic selection and literature review (Week 1)
State the topic. Explain the rationale for the topic selection using support from your reference material(s).
At least one relevant literature source is referenced in the narrative. All reference(s) including the data source are cited in APA format.
Research Question and Descriptive Statistics (Week 2)
The research question is clearly stated.
Include information regarding the source of data and method of data collection, including the area, date, variable(s), experimental/survey setting, and method of measurements.
Report the descriptive statistics, including sample size, mean, standard deviation, and five number summary
Include an appropriately labeled graph (histogram).
Confidence interval(s) of the selected variable (Week 3)
Report the confidence interval of the variable(s) and interpret it properly.
Hypothesis test and the conclusion of the study (Week 4)
Describe the null and alternative hypotheses in words and symbols.
Clearly report the results of the hypothesis test, including selected significance level and the distribution, test statistic, p-value, and decision to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis.
The conclusions of the study are stated and they follow the results of the hypothesis test.
Week 5: Report
In Week 5, you will create a report which summarizes all aspects of the project.
Report: The project report is a compilation of the information from project deliverables 1 to 4. The deliverable for this final assignment is a report, not a resubmission of your previously submitted deliverables. You must take the information from your worksheet deliverables and create a new report document from them. Your report should include (in this order):
Topic selection and literature review (Week 1)
Descriptive statistics and graphs of the data set (Week 2)
Confidence interval(s) of the selected variable (Week 3)

Title: The Intersection of Identity and Voting Behavior: Exploring the Impact of Education, Marital Status, Employment, Religion, Military Service, and Social Movements on Political Beliefs and Electoral Outcomes
An individual’s education level may have an impact on how he or she votes. How might other factors, such as marital status, employment status, religion, and military service, affect a person’s voting behavior?
Various levels of voting are associated with different gendered identities within race. In what ways might these patterns affect electoral outcomes? What does this suggest for future voting and electoral outcomes?
In what ways do your own political beliefs reflect your identities (race, class, and/or gender), and in what ways do your identities shape your political beliefs?
The labor and civil rights movements had a significant impact on identity and political coalitions. What other movements might have significantly influenced political institutions, identities, and outcomes? What does this suggest regarding the stability of political institutions?
Identity politics is a highly effective organizational tool, but identity movements can become focused on single issues. How might concentration on single issues and single identities serve not only to marginalize, but also to limit the effectiveness of a social movement?
The future belongs to all of us. Each generation, from oldest to youngest, has a stake in how well the political process operates. How might you, even at this point, become more involved in politics? What can you do within your institution or in the wider community to help support positive change?
Your initial post should be at least 500 words in length. -
The Treatment and Portrayal of Aspasia and Neaira in Ancient Greek Sources: A Comparative Analysis of Gender Roles and Power Dynamics “The Dichotomy of Ancient Greek Courtesans: A Comparison of Aspasia and Neaira”
One (1) primary source analysis is due this term (worth 100 points). This short paper, 1,000–1,200 words (including footnotes) is a formal analysis of a primary source and a bibliography. Source analysis is at the heart of a historian’s research and deep and critical reading of material (even if it is only a badly corroded coin or chunk of pot sherd). Source analysis can tell us a lot if we ask the right questions.
Purpose:
The purpose is to gain fluency in close reading of a single primary source from class to discern context, to analyze the content, and pose thesis-seeking questions. The goal is not to merely summarize what the source is and what it says but to deeply engage with it and study it. The link above will give some types of questions to ask. Our goal is to look at the lives of two women in ancient Greece, Aspasia and Neaira and think about what the primary source evidence says and how they portray these two women (and why they portray them this way). Our readings from class (and the seminar discussion) feed directly into this paper.
Aspasia and Neaira Assignment
We have been and we will be continuing to talk about gender roles and sexuality (and sex) in antiquity as well as the political power men and women had (or didn’t have). So, given all that information you must answer the following questions in your paper:
What was the difference between the treatment of Aspasia and Neaira in our ancient sources and why do you think these differences existed?
Support your argument with appropriate citations and examples from the assigned texts to support your discussion. Key points: What made these two women so similar and yet so different? Why were they treated in such a radically different way (if so)? *Use the essay question as your title. Do not make up your own title.*
I do not specify which ‘angle of attack’ you must take. That is YOUR decision and it is your responsibility to not only elucidate your own argument but to use information from the readings to support what you want to say and to show your understanding of the sources.
Refer back to the essay cover sheet (linked) for what I will be looking for in addition to the facts and arguments you convey.
***Length of the Aspasia/Neaira paper: 1000-1200 words, double-spaced. The minimum/maximum lengths are not optional and the word count includes footnotes but not your bibliography.***
(More information to consider when writing)
As you read make some notes:
What is the difference in how each woman is treated and was it about her status as a metic or ex-slave or as a former prostitute/sex-worker?What do you think made for such a radically different treatment of the two women in antiquity? What did you think of the Kurke article? Were you surprised at the linkage between politics and the hetairai?
How did hetairai differ from the mere pornai? How did these women differ from Greek wives?
How do you think women in general are seen given the way these women are treated/were treated?
“Hetaira is a “courtesan” or “mistress” of one or two men and paid in gifts by being their companion at symposia and revels in contrast from pornai who are seen by uncountable amount of men and they are usually found on the streets or brothels. They are paid in cash and are only used for sexual desires. These woman who treated differently because hetaira where often purchased as children and trained by their owners to be entertainers and companions and there was no need for sex while pornai where usually slaves or non-citizens who were there to provide services for the lower class. These woman were treated differently from the Greek wives because the wives are too innocent and pure to be treated the same. They can’t leave the house and see their husbands drinking or talking business. Hetaira were the woman who were ‘honored’ to accompany the man to these meetings and get gifts but these two women can’t meet each other. Pornai women were probably treated poorly and seen as filthy rather than appreciated like the hetaira women were treated.”
