Short paper based on the documentary - "Where to invade
next?"
Writing Assignment (prompt 1) – Write a short based on
“Where to invade next” by Michael
Moore
Your task:
Watch “Where to invade next”. Your task is to analyze this
documentary and write a short essay.
Use the concepts presented in chapter 3 to write this paper.
Please make sure that the
following prompts are addressed in your paper.
Prompts:
1.Michael Moore visits nine countries. In each country he picks
up one value to examine the
difference between American society and the country he was
visiting. For example, in Norway,
the prison system was based on the value of “rehabilitation”
(not revenge). This value guides
every aspect of incarceration. Your task is to examine TWO
countries and explain the
underlying value examined in the countries you have picked.
For the two countries you have selected, compare and discuss
how things are done in these
countries as compared to America. First define the concept of
"value" and clearly discuss how
these values are different as compared to America.
3.Give examples of the following concepts (you can use any
country visited in the documentary)
a. Material culture and non-material culture (give definitions
and examples of these concepts)
b. Symbols (give definition and example of this concept)
c. Formal and informal norms (give definitions and examples of
this concept
4. If you were to bring one "value" from the "invaded" country
back to the US, what will it be?
Explain why you will bring it back?
5. Conclude the analysis by using the concept of “cultural
relativism” – is it fair for Michael
Moore to judge American society by standards of other culture?
Guidelines for a 4-5-page double spaced(Minimum) paper :
Rubric for grading
Introduction: Start with the concept of culture and clearly state
how you are going to use this
documentary to understand cultural differences between US and

culture.
