Question No. 2

I'll post a sample FRQ here about comparative government and politics almost every week day until May 6. They're for practice, since that one of the best ways of preparing for the exam.

I will post 3 sets of FRQs like the ones you'll see on the AP Exam. Each set will consist of 5 "short answer - concept" questions, 1 "conceptual analysis" question, and 2 "country context" questions.

You can subscribe to these questions using the RSS feed (the little broadcast 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.


Here's Question No. 2 (It's a Short Answer - Concept question.):

Describe two major ways that policy making about social welfare issues in a neo-liberal government differs from policy making making about social welfare issues in a social democratic government.
