Question No. 2 (16 March 2009)

I'll post a sample FRQ here about comparative government and politics almost every week day until May 1. They're for practice, since that one of the best ways of preparing for the exam.

You can subscribe to these questions using the RSS feed (the little orange icon in the address bar), and you'll see them in your news reader when I post them.

You can submit an answer using the "Questions" e-mail link at the What You Need to Know web site. (Look in the lower, right-hand section of that page.)

If you submit the earliest best answer, I'll post your answer (without your name) and a critique here a week after the question was posted. It will be in the "Comments" section for that question.

No prizes this year. But, I'll add your school's web address to the list of "Worthwhile Links" on the left side of the blog, IF you send it to me.

Here's Question No. 2:

A. Describe two (2) ways that treaties like the EU agreements or NAFTA affect the capacity of states that sign the treaties. (2 points)

B. How do those effects relate to calls for rejection of the EU's Lisbon Treaty or for revisions to NAFTA? (2 points)

(See pages 46, 136, and 154-156 in What You Need to Know.)
