Ideal Answer: The ideal answer should include:
1. Identify the key characteristics of postmodernism in international relations.
2. Describe a current international situation the above key characteristics best fit. Students might provide an example like Iran or North Korea  a state which is viewed by many as a monolith, but is in fact more complex than that.
3. Explain how the consideration of concepts such as subtext, of the fractured nature of states, or of the fluidity of norms might back up the chosen example above.
