Examiner's summary

Criterion A [4/6]:

The student has chosen a highly appropriate and focused topic for their Global Politics extended essay, analyzing the 2015 State of Emergency in France and its impact on civil liberties. The essay effectively incorporates historical references to provide context and employs appropriate theories and concepts to analyze the issue. The research question is specific and well-structured, and the student demonstrates a critical approach through the use of different theoretical perspectives. However, there are areas for improvement, such as explicitly justifying the choice of secondary sources and providing a clearer rationale for the selected methodology. Additionally, expanding on comparative studies and case analyses would enrich the depth of the analysis.

Criterion B [4/6]:

The student's proposed research question for Criterion B is appropriate, specific, and directly tied to global political issues, allowing for in-depth analysis of the impact of counter-terrorism measures on liberty. Their understanding and knowledge of the topic is demonstrated through relevant theoretical disciplines and establishing a greater context of global politics, such as references to the USA's response to 9/11 and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. However, the essay needs to establish a clearer connection between the selected topic and the discussed political issue, theories, and associated figures. Additionally, the student should further explore how cultural or social biases might affect the interpretation and enforcement of counter-terrorism measures and address potential biases in the sources used. The use of subject-specific terms is correct and not saturated with unnecessary jargon, and the student effectively explains important subject-specific terms or concepts, making the essay more accessible to readers without specialized knowledge. The essay also addresses key concepts from the Global Politics IB course, directly tying into the core themes of Global Politics.
