Gilded age style political cartoon depicting a steamship named International System navigating a stormy ocean with various nations.

make a glided age style cartoon, Draw a large ship in the middle of a stormy ocean. The ship represents the international system. The Ship Different countries are represented by people or flags standing on the ship. The largest countries are pulling the ship's steering wheel in different directions, representing competition for power and national interests. Smaller countries are trying to avoid being crushed or pushed overboard, representing the unequal distribution of power. The Ocean The stormy ocean represents anarchy in the international system—there is no single world government controlling everyone. Other Actors Around the ship, draw smaller boats representing: NGOs helping people in the water. IGOs, such as the UN, trying to guide the ship through the storm. MNCs transporting cargo between different parts of the world. You could draw bridges or ropes connecting the different boats to represent globalization and interdependence. This fits especially well with the liberal perspective you chose in your earlier work because liberalism recognizes that the international system is not controlled exclusively by powerful states. International organizations, NGOs, corporations, and economic relationships can all influence what happens. See more
