Washington Adventist University Corporate Control of The World Video Review
Write a review and criticism of the Chris Hedges video, “Corporate Control of the World” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i5X3NRD00FY), as seen from the perspective of our concern with international relations. (we talked in class about “realisim, liberalism and constructivistm” you could tie one of the to the subject).
Questions you may want to consider include the following:
- What are the main ideas articulated by Hedges? These should be stated in your own words, but you may quote or paraphrase Hedges, as well.
- What do these have to do with the way we think about international relations? Be sure to reference the various approaches to understanding and practicing international relations found in what we have read in the text.
- Who is Hedges? Why is he telling us these things? Should we believe him? You may want to review the Wikipedia entry on him and consult the Truthdig website, which he and his associates have put up on the Web (https://www.truthdig.com/ ).
