\nthat address all the points in each set of questions. Notice the expected word count for each section

\nhow political violence is different today than in the past. Then, list and describe the four major factors the
\nauthor indicates as elevating the risk of election-related violence. (approximately 150-200 words)

\n3. Based on the piece by Spencer Bokat-Lindell (\u201cIs Civil War Looming, or Should We Calm Down?\u201d), what
\nevidence presented do you consider to be the most concerning warning sign that the U.S. might be headed
\ntowards a civil war? What evidence presented do you consider to be the most reassuring that the U.S. is not
\nheaded toward civil war? Be sure to justify your choices in the last two answers. Finally, what is meant by the
\nfollowing: \u201cprognostications of civil war, even when justified, can be dangerous, a kind of self-fulfilling
\nprophecy\u201d? (approximately 150-200 words)
\nBe careful not to plagiarize. If you want to quote directly, do so using quotation marks (giving the page number
\nif available). But try to do this sparingly and simply use your own words in addressing the questions.
\nIn your writing, use an analytical tone. In other words, try to answer the questions in a straightforward and
\nobjective manner.
\nWhen you are done, save the document as a Word file or as an Adobe PDF file (it cannot be Google docs, etc.)
\nand upload it through Moodle (these parts are very important!). Papers not uploaded by the deadline will receive
\na grade penalty.
