Fоr this reflectiоn, yоu аre аsked to tаke a position in which you argue for or against the United Nations (UN). Namely, you will address the question: Is the UN effective and relevant in our current international climate or not?  You MUST TAKE A SIDE. I don't want to read about how the UN has pros and cons. You have to argue one position or the other (it doesn't even matter if you agree with it; what matters is that you take a position and support your argument using the readings/resources from the week).    As always, you need to satisfy 4 criteria: You must parenthetically cite all the readings/materials assigned this week at least twice. You must use academic language. You must use 5-paragraph essay formatting (but of course, your post is not restricted to 5 paragraphs).  Your post should be at least 25 complete sentences.

Remember to end your introduction with a thesis statement - if your introduction is 2 paragraphs, the thesis statement will come at the end of the second paragraph.] As always, you need to satisfy 4 criteria: You must parenthetically cite all the readings/materials assigned this week at least twice. You must use academic language. You must use 5-paragraph essay formatting (but of course, your post is not restricted to 5 paragraphs).  Your post should be at least 25 complete sentences.
