Political Science Answers

My sponsor has made an exceptional request for me to write an article for one of her electronic publications. The timing is good, as I have just arrived at a new destination. With my friend’s approval, I decide to write about this new country. But what am I going to write about? Rigged elections that easily enable the incumbent president to be re-elected? Numerous irregularities in the election process? The arrest of two members of the ruling political party who did not agree with the president’s latest decisions? Or I could write about the very limited civil rights and liberties or the fact that the only place political pluralism is allowed in this country is on paper.

Not surprisingly, my friend advises me to be extremely careful, whatever subject I choose: In this state, even the Internet is monitored. I never know what can happen under this type of regime.
