You will enter the project through a Mini Summit Challenge, test how hard it is to make and enforce agreements without a world government, and leave with a focused investigation question and first evidence notes for your International Politics Investigation Notebook.

You will turn the Mini Summit experience into an investigation by sorting negotiation evidence, testing explanations against international system concepts, and building a short argument with a visual summary that answers the essential question while noting limits and next questions.

You will present your International Politics Summit Policy Brief and evidence from your Investigation Notebook, respond to audience questions about how the international system works, and complete a self-assessment conference that documents your learning, collaboration, persistence, and next step.
