From Brahimi to Mistura: Why the mediation failed to bring peace to Syria

From Brahimi to Mistura: Why the mediation failed to bring peace to Syria

Order Description

GENERAL
The Bluebook style not APA
Topic: The paper should be research or investigation into a topic of your choice that relates to mediation. Choose your topic carefully since the topic is key to the success of your research assignment. Choosing a topic that truly interests you will keep you motivated
throughout your entire research effort from beginning to end
My topic that I choose is About “From Brahimi to Mistura: Why the mediation failed to bring peace to Syria”
Length: The paper should be of sufficient length to develop your topic. length is expected to be approximately 20 pages including citations. Quality is more important than quantity. Requires tighter editing or has too broad a scope.
Form: Please double space and use standard margins of 1 inch with a 12 point font for the main text.
Citations: I have a very slight preference for footnotes rather than endnotes but it is your choice. There is no minimum or maximum number of sources since what is available is dependent on topic. However, a paper with only 5 or 6 sources is unlikely to show sufficient research depth to quality for a high grade. If you are having trouble locating resources, please let me know with me to determine if a different topic might make sense or whether you may need to seek out different sources.
