The previous assignments focused on domestic matters in US history.  This last assignment explores America’s international role in recent  decades. By the mid-20th century, the  United States had become the dominant force in international relations.  Some have argued that the United States’ military functions as the  world’s “police.” This assignment covers the manner in which this shift  occurred and the consequences the United States faces as a result of its  status as “policeman of the world.” One can identify early steps this  direction well before World War II, but in this paper focus on the  period from the 1940s to the present. Take one of the positions as  suggested below, draw from the sources listed, and present a paper with  specific examples and arguments to demonstrate the validity of your  position.Possible position—in each case you can take the pro or con position: The American “policing” role developed because of the Cold War, but  it became primarily a means for protecting and assisting economic  interests for itself and its allies as illustrated by recent events as  well as earlier ones. The American “policing” role has been exercised primarily to protect  vulnerable peoples and regions from powerful oppressors or from  regional chaos, as illustrated by recent events as well as earlier ones. The American “policing” role has had noble intentions and ultimate  success during the Cold War, but in fighting terror it has gotten off  track with some severe consequences.After giving general consideration to your readings and your  research, select one of the positions above as your position—your  thesis. (Sometimes after doing more thorough research, you might choose  the reverse position. This happens with critical thinking and inquiry.  Your final paper might end up taking a different position than you  originally envisioned.) Organize your paper as follows, handling these  issues: The position you choose (from the list above)—or something close to it—will be the thesis statement in your opening paragraph. To support your position, use four specific examples from different  decades between 1950 and the present. (At least one example must be from  the last ten years). Explain why the opposing view is weak in comparison to yours. Consider your life today: In what way does the history you have  shown shape or impact issues in your workplace or desired profession?  (This might be unclear at first since it is foreign policy. But,  super-power status does inevitably provide advantages in a global  economy.)Length:The  paper should be 600-to-850 words in length. This normally means 2-to-3  pages for the body of the paper. (The title page and Sources page do not  count in these calculations.) Double-space between lines. Format  instructions are below.Research and References: You must use a MINIMUM of four  quality academic sources; the Schultz textbook must be one of them. Two  of them must come from the online library—either those library sources  listed or others. Your other source should be drawn from the list  provided below. This is guided research, not open-ended Googling. You  will have a list of Sources at the end, using the SWS form. You will  have short, SWS-style in-text citations appropriately placed in the body  of the paper. Except as your instructor might direct, don’t use other  sources for your paper than those listed here. (Of course, for “starter  research” you can read many sources.)Source List for Assignment 3: You must use a MINIMUM of four quality  academic sources; the Schultz textbook must be one of them. Two of them  must come from the online library—either those library sources listed  or others.  Some sources are “primary” sources from the time period  being studied. Some sources below can be accessed via direct link or  through the primary sources links on Blackboard. Each week has a  different list of primary sources. For others, they are accessible  through the permalink to the source in our online: Sources below having  libdatab.strayer.edu as part of the URL have a permalink to that source  in our university’s online library.
