The full prompt is:
“Please answer one of the following questions. Be sure to provide specific examples with citations. You should base your answer upon the readings and rely on lectures only where the book does not cover it. Your answer is due by 11:59 PM on Friday August 16. (You will also take a multiple choice portion of the final on Friday August 16, between the hours of 12AM and 11:59 PM.)
1. Discuss the factors in world history that have led to the pending environmental catastrophe that we are facing today. How did industrialization as well as scientific and medical advancements change the world? How did the excessive carbon pollution and overpopulation of the world come to be in the last 250 or so years?
2. Discuss the effects of European colonialism and colonization on the Islamic world, esp. the Middle East. Have Europeans played a role in creating fundamentalism in Islam? How did modernization occur in the Islamic world, and what problems did the process used to modernize create?
Please provide citations to the text in your answer. Your response should be approximately 3 to 5 pages, in 12 point font, double-spaced. You may answer the questions using the course materials; outside research is not required. Citations may be in either MLA or APA format, but please be consistent and use one or the other throughout your essay.”
As the prompt states, only one of the two questions needs to be answered, and it must be 3-5 pages with correct citations from the text. I can provide the reading.
