Davis Model United Nations Conference XVIII Davis Model United Nations Conference XVIII Marvel Council May 16-17, 2020 University of California, Davis Head Chair: Megan Henderson Davis Model United Nations Conference XVIII The following content was developed by members of the Davis Model United Nations conference planning team for the sole purpose of framing delegate discussions and debate at the conference and does not represent any official position of the University or anyone engaged in preparing the materials. Delegates should use this information to guide their research and preparation for the conference but should not assume that it represents a complete analysis of the issues under discussion. The materials should not be reproduced, circulated or distributed for any purpose other than as may be required in order to prepare for the conference. 1 Davis Model United Nations Conference XVIII Letter from the Head Chair Dear Delegates, My name is Megan Henderson and it is my honor and privilege to serve as your head chair for the Marvel Council. I am a second-year Political Science major with a Human Rights minor. This will be my second time staffing at DMUNC—last year I was a crisis staffer for our Avatar committee, and I am so excited to be head chair this year. Other than DMUNC, I was vice chair for both CCCMUN and AggieMUN, our collegiate conference. Within the club, I also compete in conferences on the west coast. I love competing to learn more about geopolitical issues and as someone who wants to pursue a career in politics, I believe MUN is not only fun but extremely informative. My major and minor are two things I am very passionate about: politics and basic rights for all people. In the future, I hope to work in the government in some capacity to improve people’s lives. I hope to stay in the Sacramento area after graduation to work at the Capitol or another governmental organization. Outside of MUN-related things, I work for Unitrans, Davis’ bus system, participate in on-campus protests, and work as a camp counselor over the summer. I also enjoy cooking with my friends, going to the farmer’s market, and—when I have any spare time— writing. I got the idea of a Marvel committee at last year’s DMUNC; Endgame had just been released and Marvel was more popular than ever. I thought that creating a committee revolving around something so prominent in popular culture would be fun yet also have the capacity to discuss serious topics. After re-watching Civil War for what seemed like the millionth time, I knew this was the perfect topic to tackle since such a decisive entity within this movie was the United Nations. As DMUNC is fast approaching, I grow more excited to hear what will be discussed in committee. With cooperation and diplomacy, we can make this the best DMUNC yet! Best, Megan Henderson (she/her/hers) Marvel Council Davis Model United Nations XVIII [email protected] 2 Davis Model United Nations Conference XVIII Committee Information Following several world disasters, including the Battle of New York, the attack of Sokovia, and the bombing in Lagos, world leaders recognized the previous damage and what unrestricted action could entail. While the Avengers are revered to be saviors, their actions have consequences and they must collaborate with international governments to prevent further destruction. The United States and the United Nations have called for the formation of an oversight committee to monitor further missions, for the Avengers were too dangerous to continue to operate privately. The possibility of governmental patrol splits the Avengers into two blocs: the first headed by Tony Stark, best known as Iron Man, who believes an oversight committee will prevent unnecessary lives from being lost. The other bloc is led by Captain Steve Rogers, best known as Captain America, who believes the panel will strip the superheroes of their freedom and will subject the Avengers to third-party infiltration. As a result, the Avengers are torn; should they listen to international leaders and agree to surveillance or do they continue saving the world without getting reigned in? 3 Davis Model United Nations Conference XVIII Topic A: Signing of the Sokovia Accords 4 Davis Model United Nations Conference XVIII Introduction The year is 2016, the year following the destruction of Sokovia during the battle of Ultron. After devastating events in New York and Washington D.C., public opinion of the Avengers has reached an all-time low. When a mission led by Captain Steve Rogers goes wrong in Lagos, Nigeria, resulting in the death of multiple Wakandan aid workers, the United Nations comes to the decision that the Avengers are too great of a risk to continue to operate privately. While Tony Stark agrees that the United Nations should form an oversight committee to ensure there are no further unnecessary losses due to the Avengers, Captain Rogers worries about a loss of freedom and threat of third-party infiltration, namely from HYDRA, an organization that rivals S.H.I.E.L.D. whose goal is world domination. Leading up to the signing of the Sokovia Accords in Vienna, the official document to establish the international oversight panel, a bomb detonated by HYDRA exploded in the UN Building, injuring dozens and killing Wakanda’s King T’Chaka. Captain Rogers, already worried about potential HYDRA infiltration, further opposes the Accords. The Avengers are further divided on this issue than ever and are facing more international pressure, especially after the bombing. 5 Davis Model United Nations Conference XVIII Important Terms 1. Attack on the IFID Headquarters: Also known as the Lagos Catastrophe, was a mission led by Captain Steve Rogers in Lagos, Nigeria, that resulted in the deaths of multiple aid workers from Wakanda. With public opinion increasingly divided following the Battle of Sokovia, the destruction in Lagos was deemed a public relations disaster. Several international politicians, among them Wakanda’s ruler King T’Chaka, called for the United Nations to create a system of accountability. 2. The Avengers: A team of extraordinary individuals, with either superpowers or other special characteristics. Its purpose is to protect global stability from inner or extraterrestrial threats. Though primarily affiliated with the United States of America, they work with the peaceful interests of the whole world in mind rather than a specific country or organization. 3. The Battle of New York: Also known as the Attack on New York, the Attack on Midtown Manhattan, the Manhattan Crisis, and the Incident, was a major battle between the Avengers and Loki in 2012. This was the first battle with the recently assembled Avengers and was the first of the negative critique of the group—world leaders began to call for the regulation of supernatural beings. 4. Battle of Sokovia: A major battle between the Avengers and Ultron in Novi Grad, Sokovia in 2015. Much of the blame was placed on Tony Stark and more officials discussed the possibility of regulating superheroes. 5. Battle at the Triskelion: The first open battle between HYDRA and S.H.I.E.L.D. in 2014. Public opinion of the Avengers continued to grow more negative after this battle. 6. HYDRA: An authoritarian paramilitary-subversive organization bent on world domination. Its most recent incarnation coming into existence was shortly after the rise of Nazism in Germany. There are still HYDRA agent’s intent on destroying S.H.I.E.L.D and killing the Avengers with their most recent attack being the bombing of the UN Building in Vienna. 7. S.H.I.E.L.D: Acronym for the Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement, and Logistics Division. S.H.I.E.L.D. was run by Nick Fury and the World Security Council in the modern age, S.H.I.E.L.D. had to deal with the significant rise in enhanced individuals, dangerous advanced technology, and alien contact. All the problems S.H.I.E.L.D. had to solve eventually led to the formation of the Avengers. 6 Davis Model United Nations Conference XVIII 8. Sokovia Accords: A proposed set of legal documents with the intention to regulate the activities of enhanced individuals, specifically those who work in governmental agencies, namely the Avengers. Following the bombing of the UN Building, the original copy of the Accords was destroyed and now will be rewritten by government officials and members of the Avengers. 9. Ultron: An Artificial Intelligence Peacekeeping Program created by Tony Stark. He turned on the Avengers and attacked Earth, the battle so destructive that it ultimately led to the drafting of the Sokovia Accords. 10. Wakanda: Officially known as the Kingdom of Wakanda, is a small isolationist landlocked country located in Africa, surrounded by mountain ranges and a thick forest. The Lagos mission resulted in the deaths of dozens of Wakandan aid workers. The bombing in Vienna killed their former king, T’Chaka, and their new king is T’Chaka’s son, T’Challa. 11. World Security Council: An international council formed of politicians from some of the Earth's most powerful countries to function as oversight for S.H.I.E.L.D. It does not have the authority to oversee the Avengers, however, as the Avengers are its own private team within S.H.I.E.L.D. 7 Davis Model United Nations Conference XVIII Background of the Sokovia Accords: After the Allied Powers victory in World War II, an American extra-governmental military counterterrorism and intelligence agency was founded. The Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement, and Logistics Department—better known as S.H.I.E.L.D.— was formed to maintain national and global security.

Abstract Established in 2008 with the release of Iron Man, the Marvel Cinematic Universe has become a ubiquitous transmedia sensation. Its uniquely interwoven narrative provides auspicious grounds for scholarly consideration. The franchise conscientiously presents larger-than-life superheroes as complex and incredibly emotional individuals who form profound interpersonal relationships with one another. This thesis explores Sarah Hagelin’s concept of resistant vulnerability, which she defines as a “shared human experience,” as it manifests in the substantial relationships that Steve Rogers (Captain America) cultivates throughout the Captain America narrative (11). This project focuses on Steve’s relationships with the following characters: Agent Peggy Carter, Natasha Romanoff (Black Widow), and Bucky Barnes (The Winter Soldier).
