Topic: one of the major concepts, events, or people associated with the history of peacekeeping, 1988-present. I would like this to have something to do with North Korea peacekeeping.

A brief description of the chosen paper topic, short (1 to 2 paragraph) thesis statement that the student intends to structure the paper around, a listing (in outline form) of the supporting arguments and sub-arguments that are intended to support the thesis, a Reference List of sources the student intends to use for researching the paper – must include at least five peer-reviewed sources to complement any primary sources.

This assignment will be graded on the proposed topic for the research paper, the historical question posed, and a preliminary thesis statement. To create a thesis statement, ask a unique research question about the topic and answer it with specific reasons why. The statement should be one sentence if possible and presented in the opening paragraph of your proposal. Your instructor will approve the topic as submitted or will direct modifications as needed. This assignment will be due Week 3.
