First, describe the basic situation of the case. Second, set it up using a prisoner’s dilemma
analysis. Be sure to specifically highlight specifically why the Prisoner’s dilemma can help us to
understand the situation, tying specific facts of the case to the PD situation. In doing so, be sure
to highlight the central factors of the realist-neo-liberal institutionalist debate.
Then, draw a prediction from the Prisoner’s dilemma about what “is likely” to occur in this
situation. Compare this to the reality of the case. If the Prisoner’s dilemma prediction does not
the fit reality, present an argument about the relevant factors that are changing state behavior from
the Prisoner’s dilemma world. If the Prisoner’s dilemma prediction does fit reality, present an
the argument about why factors highlighted by the neo-liberal institutionalists were not effective in bringing about cooperation.
