The paper explores the following question: “If states act in their own self-interest, then why do hegemons intervene in counterterrorist operations in foreign countries?”

 • Identify who takes the opposing position. Identify and explain what the opposition argues.
• Negative Argument: explain what is wrong with the opposing position.
• Positive Argument: Reiterate what your position is.
• Introduce and use important concepts from the course to support your position.  Clearly define the concepts you use!  Clearly state how these concepts and definitions relate to one another.
• Find a case that supports your argument.
• Conclude with a summary of your argument.

Important concepts from the class include: world orders, military power, liberal institutions, hegemons, security dilemmas, cooperation, collective security
