Border Wars

http://www.cnn.com/2014/06/24/world/meast/iraq-foreign-fighters/
I read these articles about the insurgency movements because they contained quotes from people actually fighting, explaining some of their motivations and reasons , which I thought was a better source than someone else's secondary or tertiary analysis of what is driving the movements.

These contain maps and information on the original borders in the Middle East and in Africa and how, when re-configured, caused a lot of tension. The maps are important because, to really understand the reasons behind the conflicts, you need to be able to see the discrepancies. In doing so, you can see that the tension seemed to come, in large part, by DP's, or displaced persons. People who were once all in the same tribe, or of the same background, are now split up and often times forced to live in conjunction with people who they have very deep hatred for. This caused a lot of massacres and unnecessary wars over people trying to get back what was rightfully theirs. (Effects of Imperialism)

Medical Ethics
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medical_ethics
I read this article because it provided a comprehensive description and terminology of medical ethics, as well as descriptors and links to law cases involving medical ethics. In most other scenarios, I would look up and research other sources, but since this one was so far-reaching, I felt like I understood enough to not have to continue searching.

Feminist Criticism
https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/722/11/
This resource is important because it describes specific questions that you can ask to gain more insight into feminist criticism. I found this important because it helps start training you to question and think about the things that you are reading and are introduced to at a much deeper and troubling level, promoting real thought about your world.

This is a good article because of the examples it gives to texts about female criticism, and the sidebar, which has many different types of criticisms that you can look through. I liked this because it allowed you to really dig and see what feminist criticism was and how it was different from other types of criticism, like Marxist Criticism and Psychoanalytic Criticism.
