POLI 330 Week 3 TCO Assessment
(TCO 2) As we have been discussing, throughout history, many people were not fans of pure
democracy. One of the reasons for this was the idea of factions, as addressed in Madison’s

sentences are required.)
POLI 330 Week 5 TCO Assessment
(TCO 4) What are your initial, nonlegal, thoughts on this case? How would you decide it based
on your own belief structures? For example, if you were the judge in this case, would you
would allow Mr. Trident to leave the hospital, thus bringing about his death? Or would you feel
for Mr. Trident but side with the hospital because he clearly is not in the right mind to make
such decisions for himself? Or would you perhaps side with the hospital because people should
not be allowed to refuse medical treatment or go to the extreme of ordering the hospital to aid in
the shortening of his life so that he did not have to suffer a painful death? What would you do?
Please put some thought into your answer and provide at least 4–5 sentences as you explain it.
(TCO 4) What is the difference between moral and legal reasoning?
(TCO 4) In a true legal argument, should legal reasoning or moral reasoning be used?
(TCO 4) Mr. Trident is arguing that the hospital has violated his 14th Amendment right to due
process. What part of the 14th Amendment is he referring to in his argument?
(TCO 4) Cruzan v. Director, Missouri Department of Health is a case studied in the right-to-die
debate. What precedent did it help to establish?
(TCO 4) How does the Cruzan case factor into Mr. Trident’s argument?
(TCO 4) Given the precedent established in the Cruzan case, how would you now have to
decide the case if you were the judge?
(TCO 4) What other U.S. Supreme Court cases deal with the right-to-die issue?

(TCO 7) What are the trade-offs of preserving some programs while protecting others?
(TCO 7) How do your decisions result in a marginal benefit to society so that they can outweigh
the marginal cost to society?
(TCO 7) Did doing this exercise change your feelings about the budget debate in Washington?

POLI 330 Week 7 TCO Assessment
(TCO 9) As the simulation shows, Muhammed’s father was killed by the Israelis in their war of
independence, as they attempted to defend their state and enforce the boundaries established by
the UN. Although this was an international decree, all Muhammed witnessed was his father’s
death and the loss of his family home as the land of his forefathers was taken to make room for
what many Palestinians viewed as the “occupiers.” If you were him, how would you react? For
example, would you blame the Israelis for hurting your father and taking your land, and then
pass on this hatred to your children so they would know never to trust the Israelis? Would you
seek revenge for your family and people? Or is there a chance that you would accept the new
conditions of the UN resolution because it was in the best interest of the people of the world?
What about simply seeking strength in your religion and guiding your children away from the
hatreds of the past in an effort to protect them? Please put some thought into your answer and
provide at least 4–5 sentences as you explain it.
(TCO 9) Within the Israeli home, Ben knows from the horrors faced by his parents what can
happen when there is not a state of Israel in the world. He thus supports his state and will do
anything to defend its claim to this region. How does this differ from Muhammed’s stance?
(TCO 9) What do Muhammed and Ben have in common?
(TCO 9) Serapin and Sarah _____.
(TCO 9) Judith and Ahmed are the youngest members of their respective families. What do they
have in common?
(TCO 9) Given what you have read and what you know about the conflicts between Israel and
Palestine, what is the likelihood that the children will continue the cycle of violence in this land
if nothing radically changes?
(TCO 9) What impact has the violence in this land had on the legitimacy of the Israeli
government?
(TCO 9) Abdullah has admittedly committed terrorist acts against Israel. According to your
text, does terrorism work?
