The Historical Joint Crisis Committee is a specialized crisis committee in which delegates will find themselves in the midst of a historical conflict. As a unique committee consisting of two competing blocs, assassinations, kidnappings and political upheaval are all but certain. Delegates must anticipate the needs of the populace while balancing conflicting loyalties and ambitions. Simultaneously, they must adjust to crisis Rules of Procedure and specialized Rules of Engagement. Success will depend on the delegates’ ability to think and act quickly, while adapting to the frequent situational changes of the crisis. The topic for PACMUN 2020 is the Irish Civil War-- a politically polarizing and violent time in Ireland’s history. The HJCC is suitable for advanced delegates as well as intermediate delegates looking to refine their skills or to step into the realm of specialized committees.
