How'd everyone find the question?

I haven't seen many people talking about WO so i guess not many did it.

Personally the question was a duplicate of my assignment so i basically smashed it... 20+ for sure.

I really liked the world order question...

i did b)...if my memory serves me right it was something to do with evaluating ways to achieve world order minus the use of force...or something like that(after the exam i erased every memory of legal studies i had)

what did everyone else choose?

I did question A. I thought it was a fairly good question. Pretty much I said that without law there can be no world order because without law in general eventuates anarchy, therefore law sets a bench mark for acceptable and not acceptable behaviour. Then I spoke about peacekeeping, conventions, world government, ICJ, ICC and other tribunals, state sovereignty, domestic laws, EU/NATO, co-operation of nation-states and extradition as well as inequalities between nation states and impact of NGOs. I had like and hour and 20 mins to write the essay lol

id have to say option b was the most perfect world order question i could have ever been asked, duplicated my trial essay which got me full marks. talked about all the usual issues, the icc/icj, war crimes tribunals, treaties etc...was really pleased with myself

yay for legal studies, if only all exams were as perfect as u

i also did b), i tried to do a plan for a) but simply couldnt come up with an argument and b) was also in assessment we did, excluding force. I kind of wish we didnt do world order altogether. the resources on it(in terms of HSC syllabus) are so limited, but the question was good, so im happy... OK, no more talking about legal for me...

wow all of you guys did assessments on world order? We only had the trials and at that time we completed the first chapter, so that was the only thing assessed. Prior to the HSC I didn't write any practice essays or anything for world order.

I liked the World Order question, it allowed me to bloviate for ages.
