揽瓜阁做题小分队 第5天 瑞士边界对和平的作用

B及站士

P1. 瑞士語言與宗教多元卻安定和平, 因其利用邊界劃分不同群體(地理邊界區隔語言, 政治邊界區隔宗教)
P2. 闡述實體邊界(地理上)對維持和平是有效的, 然而政治及語言混和的區域是比較常見也比較有衝突的(如Jura區域)
P3. 部分研究人員認為政治邊界在缺乏實體邊界時有安定效果, 作者用Jura區的例子反駁。
      最後提到將法語區統整一起或許能改善, 但作者提醒目前沒有充分證據支持這個提案

P1
1. Context: Switzerland has maintained peaceful since its establishment (despite 3 languages + 2 religions)
2. New Study: topographical and political boundaries -> separating groups
3. Intermediate: landscape elements separate linguistic groups ; political cantons separate religious groups

P2
1. Elaborate:
the effect of physical separations – lakes and mountains ranges
cliff – sharp contrast in height + long distance – physical boundaries
2. Argument:
the region with physical boundaries – remain peace
politically or linguistically mixed cantons – more prevalent + violence is more common
3. Example: Jura has a history of conflict (its topographical boundaries does not separate linguistics groups)

P3
1. Some researchers: (where physical boundaries are absent) political boundaries can encourage stability
2. Challenge: political boundaries might not be sufficient to discourage violence (Jura: political boundaries, but remaining linguistic difference -> conflict continued)
3. Proposal: combine the French-speaking Protestant areas with the French-speaking Catholic areas -> although little evidence support this proposal

P1
3 languages --conflict but Switzerland (x) --why--A new study -- political & geographical barrier work -- foster peace
P2
geographical barrier -- what(lake/mountain/height[cliff])--peace--contrast x --eg Jura
P3
political barrier -- discourage violence --eg French & German -- linguistic difference->conflict  still exist--consider combining
