Discussion 300+ words, APA style, cite references.  I attached book chapters to read.  and below is the reference for that book.

 

Discussion question:

In the past, the view of your identity has been that individuality comes first and then you interact to form social groups. Many of the readings in Chapter 3 of  Bridges Not Walls  present a different view. Define identity and discuss how communication builds identity as illustrated in the presentation communication scenarios. Be specific in utilizing theories and terminology from the text.

Be sure to directly cite the sources within the body of the paper and these on a reference page (title that page References and place as the last page of the paper).

Introduce your paper with an opening paragraph discussing what you will do in the paper. Title the section Introduction. Conclude your essay with a final paragraph discussing what you addressed in the paper. Title the section  Conclusion . An abbreviated example opening introduction paragraph is below. 

 

Introduction

This paper discusses deviance as it is described, defined, and understood within the discipline of Sociology. Deliberated is Robert Merton’s Anomie Theory of deviant behavior. This paper clarifies the main ideas of Merton’s theory and presents the five adaptations: conformity, innovation, ritualism, retreatism , and rebellion. The five adaptations are discussed in detail and each applied to a “real world” example…

 

The Sociology of  Deviance   

In this section, use the information of pages 158-159 as a starting point to discuss what deviance (deviant behavior) is to sociologists (that is, how it is conceptualized and defined). Apply the information in the textbook and outside sources to add depth to this section. I also suggest discussing the concept of conformity and/or other related terms in this section. This section should be approximately 1 double-spaced page or more in length.

 

Merton’s Anomie Theory of Deviance

 

In this section, use the information of pages 160-161 as a starting point to discuss Merton’s Anomie theory of deviance. Use the information from the textbook as a starting point and the outside sources to elaborate on Merton’s theory. This section should address the main ideas of Merton’s theory. It should also include Merton’s five modes of adaptation and how these form the basis of his theory. There will be some overlap between this section and the sections below when the distinct adaptations are presented and discussed. This section should be approximately 1 double-spaced page or more in length.

 

Adaptation #1: Conformity (the Conformist)

In this section discuss the adaptation of conformity to social norms. Apply outside sources to add clarity and depth to this section (you do not have to use all three sources in each section). Be very detailed.

Also discuss a “real world” example of conformity. The example may be “real”, an example from a book, movie, or TV show, a historical or contemporary figure, or created by your imagination. Tell a detailed story describing the adaption and how it is used. Be creative and comprehensive.

Follow this same process for each of the other four adaptations .

Adaptation #2: Retreatism  (the Retreatist )

Adaptation #3: Innovator (the Innovator)

Adaptation #4: Ritualism (the Ritualist )

Adaptation #5: Rebellion (the Rebel)

Conclusion

 

This paper discussed deviance as it is described, defined, and understood within the discipline of Sociology. This paper also presented Robert Merton’s Anomie Theory of deviant behavior. It explained the main ideas of Merton’s theory and introduced five adaptations outlined by Anomie theory: conformity, innovation, ritualism, retreatism , and rebellion. The five adaptations were each discussed in detail and applied to a “real world” example…

Sexual assault in schools

/in /by

3-5-page paper

 NAU’s sexual assault policy analysis

 

1.    Policy Analysis:

 

A.      The policy being addressed:

·      Describe the general life-area that the policy seeks to address: e.g. civic, environment, energy, human services etc. – should be a paragraph or so….

·      What was the problem that the policy was devised to address (you should produce evidence if possible – or guess if you have to)?  – could be several paragraphs long and should have references

·      What sector is the policy in – Public, Private, or Advocacy and what is your evidence for your choice?  Requires you to describe the sector and to provide evidence for your claim

·      Why did you select this policy?  Why are you interested in it?  This could be based on your personal experience, interest or could be selected for pragmatic reasons – i.e. ease of analysis etc.

·      Provide the actual title of the policy (“”) with the Policy ID – (usually a number) get an actual copy of the policy and attach it to your paper.

 

B.    Provide a short history of the problem that the policy seeks to address:  This should be several paragraphs in length to close to a page with references.  Also, provide a history of how the policy came into existence e.g.  The affordable care act can trace its roots at least as far back as President Clinton who gave the job to his wife, Hillary Clinton.

 

C.   History of the attempts to implement the policy:  No good policy lies dormant!  What efforts were made to implement the policy?  Provide a history of the attempts – should be a page or so – document with references if possible.

 

D.   What problems emerged as a result of the attempts to implement e.g. lack of money and/or complications (foreseen or unforeseen) that emerged.  What problems, therefore, still exist that block the successful implementation of the policy?

 

E.    Your recommendations to address some of the problems that exists with the policy.  Each recommendation provided should also have your reasons for the recommendation and your prediction of the possible consequences of making the change.

 

2.      Problem Analysis:

 

Steps A and B are the same as above with the exception that you do not have to identify a specific policy because you are going to propose a brand new one.

 

C.  Provide at least three alternative solutions that could solve the problem

 

D.  Criteria of Success – how would someone know that the policy that you propose will make an impact in addressing the problem.

 

E.    Your choice of one of the three alternatives – and why you are recommending it.

 

3.    Paper:

 

You have the option of selecting any topic that we have discussed in class and writing a short, modest research paper of at least five pages – double spaced, 12 point type.  Topics must be discussed with me prior to execution in order to insure the appropriateness of the topic.
