Determine the significant impact that a juror from the described demographic could potentially have in the outcome of this particular criminal trial.  Provide rationale in your response. 
• Analyze at least three (3) overall differences between criminal and civil court proceedings. Discuss the fundamental reasons why you believe that these differences are the most notable. Justify your response.

Examine the challenges related to the evolution of formal organizations. How does the changing nature of work benefit (or hinder) the employee? 

Examine the role of the family, schools, and peer groups and their influences on the presentation of self. Why might someone present themselves in a different manner within each of these groups? 

Identify each stage of Erikson’s Eight Stages of Development. Determine which stage you currently fall into and why. If you do not think you fall into any, then theorize. Briefly explain yourself. 

Describe four benefits of the “McDonaldization” of society. Provide three examples of how this has benefited our society as a whole. 

Examine the social constructs of feeling, gender, and humor. How do these relate to the presentation of self? Provide examples that show the correlation between the influence of society and how we present ourselves. 

How do you think Erikson’s Eight Stages of Development could affect how someone constructs reality? For example, in Stage 4: Preadolescence, if a child fears that he/she does not measure up, it could affect how he/she views his/her world. (Look at the social construction of reality as a reference.) 

Western and Non-Western Compared

Most students read this chapter and realize two things: first, that they don’t know as much about other cultures as they thought they knew, and, second, while there are differences between cultures and traditions, there are surprising similarities as well.

Respond

In a well-organized essay, address the following:

1. While reading about any of the non-Western traditions, identify at least three traditions that you mentally compared to some theory in Western philosophy? How are they similar?
2. Identify which features of these two traditions you saw as non-comparable. How are the two traditions different? If you had grown up in the non-Western culture, do you think you would prefer these two traditions over the ones to which you have been enculturated in our Western society? Why or why not?
3. When you consider that Asian philosophy predates Western philosophy and religion, why do you think that it was not more influential on Western thinking?
4. How has noting and writing about the comparisons change your opinion concerning the non-Western traditions? If your opinion has not changed, explain why you think it has not changed.
