Your task is to prepare a speech with maximum length 3 minutes (each pair) where you

1: describe the phenomenon as it is today and its background or history
2. analyze and compare: does this exist in Sweden? If so: what's the difference? If not: why does it exist in the U.S?


Together with your friend you make a poster to hang on the wall describing your phenomenon. This is to be shown at the occasion of your speech. No manuscripts. Only key words. Both students must talk on the speech.
