Assignment 3: Geography of Cultural Conflicts

BACKGROUND

 The SPATIAL PERSPECTIVE of geography (Where?, Why there? and Why do we care?) and our four class themes (physical, cultural, economic, and historical geography) are useful to better understand the underlying causes of cultural conflicts around the world. In this assignment you will select a recent or current conflict and use (1) maps, (2) our vocabulary, and (3) the class themes to describe WHERE the conflict is occurring and, more importantly, WHY it is occurring there.

INSTRUCTIONS

This is a very structured paper. The idea is to encourage (force?) you to think like a geographer. You must closely follow the style sheet
