Which of the following is most accurate about the role of science and technology in international affairs?
 
  a. Science and technology have been leading forces for international cooperation
  throughout the twentieth century.
  b. Before the twentieth century, science and technology were leading forces for
  international cooperation. However, during the twentieth century, they have been
  primarily a divisive force in international affairs.
  c. It is difficult to find a place in international affairs where science and technology
  have played any role except in military affairs and in space.
  d. Science and technology are immense forces for change in international affairs,
  but it is difficult to predict the direction of change. They present great potential
  for international cooperation, but they also present dangers.

Question 2

In the international system, present-day actors
 
  a. have never been more secure than now. With the exceptions of terrorist groups
  and national liberation movements, the future is assured for present-day actors.
  b.are under internal and/or external assault. Although their survival may not
  currently be in question, their legitimacy and raison d'tre are.
  c. seldom satisfy the needs of their constituents. It therefore would not be too
  surprising if several classes of actors were to pass from existence before the end of
  the century.
  d. are becoming more and more similar across the board. States act more and more
  like multinational corporations, which in turn act more like nongovernmental
  organizations, and so on. This is called convergence.
