Explain how conflict theory is related to both criminology and sociology using appropriate terminology.

The concept of critical criminology has been prevalent among criminologists for decades. A derivative of Marxist Theory, the primary focus of conflict criminology is the disparities linked to economic, social, and political affiliation. Chapter 8 in your primary textbook and the Karl Marx & conflict theory (Links to an external site.) video discuss social conflict and critical criminology (Siegel, 2015, & CrashCourse, 2017).

Is capitalism a major cause of interstate war?

The purpose of this assignment is to further develop your ability to think across the range of thinkers and themes in this module. Select the question from the list below, again referring to primary and secondary texts where appropriate to advance an argument. We expect you to give us an exposition of the main arguments and issues being considered in the text(s) that you analyse, and to give us an evaluation (which can be positive or negative) based on your understanding of the main issues at stake, and the debates in the existing literature.

For this assignment, you MUST consider THREE theories (or at least three leading thinkers ) in answering your question, and at least one of these MUST be a critical theory or thinker (the ones we cover in semester two). You MUST also select different thinkers/ theories to those you wrote about in your earlier assignments. Any submission that does not follow these instructions will fail this assignment for inadequate task fulfilment. The aim is to allow students to engage with as many theories as possible during the course of the year.

Just to be clear, aside from the material on the radical right, all theories we engage with this term are within the broad family of critical theories of IR, and most of them have some lineage to Marxism. You can nevertheless use two or three of those theories if you wish to do so as they differ considerably from one another, and you will have not written on any of those theories in your previous assignments. But make sure you do so in a way that clearly answers the question.

For example, you could use Marx, Lenin and Gramsci if you wanted to — as long as you use them as three distinct thinkers with distinct contributions. It is also perfectly fine to refer to other theories that you have covered previously if you do so to illustrate a wider point. You could, for example, explain Robert Cox’s distinction between Critical Theory and “problem- solving theory” by exposing his critique of neorealism even if you have already covered neorealism in your previous essays. As long as you do not pick neorealism here as one of your three theories.

Question: Is capitalism a major cause of interstate war?

How Covid-19 has changed the world for the better.

Topic: How Covid-19 has changed the world for the better.
[My goal is to keep people’s spirits up and give them hope for a better day. If folks can see the positive impacts and outcomes, it may change the way people feel and create an optimistic outlook. {I know, I know we have lost love ones and our normal way of life, and it’s been devastating, but can you make an argument for the good it has done? Can you speak about how it has changed the world in a better way? Working from home and other benefits, policy changes, and future possibilities, for example. In other words, flip Covid into a positive outlook}]

Instructions:
Create an informative speech delivery outline for your speech. You cannot use Wikipedia, About.com, or E-how. If you decide to use sources from the Internet, remember to evaluate your sources.

Format: You must have four sections of your outline (Introduction, Body, Conclusion, and Bibliography), and each section must have the appropriate heading. This outline must be in full sentence format.
The Introduction and Conclusion must have capital letters next to each of the elements in the section. Each element must be on a separate line. The main points in the body of the outline must have Roman numerals, and the supporting details must have uppercase letters. The supporting details and sub-supporting details must be Arabic numbers and lowercase letters. Just remember that you have to adjust your outline for this assignment.

Nonverbal behavior: Indicate nonverbal signals throughout your outline.

Introduction: You must have the following elements in the introduction. First, attention getter/grabber, second: credibility, third: thesis, and last: preview. Each element must be separate and have an uppercase letter next to it. Please see the example below:

Example:
Introduction
A. Believe it or not, chocolate is good for us to eat! (Look at the audience and smile!)
B. Not only am I a chocolate lover, but I am also a professional baker, and I specialized in chocolate deserts
C. There are many benefits of eating chocolate
D. Today, Ill explain the health benefits and psychological benefits of eating chocolate.

Body: You can only use one organization pattern to organize your main points, and your main points must be parallel. You must have between two to five main points that are subdivided. Each main point should have at minimum two supporting points and a maximum of five supporting points. You must consistently separate all points (main,
supporting, sub-supporting, etc.) by using the appropriate Roman numerals, Arabic numbers, uppercase letters, and lowercase letters. All supporting points and sub-supporting points must be indented appropriately.
All transitions, internal summaries or reviews, and signpost must be in either brackets or parenthesis. (If you use material or information from another source, please do not forget to cite your source.)
Conclusion: You must have the following elements in your conclusion. First, review the preview, then write the memorable thought, and the last include thank you. Again, all elements must be separate and have an uppercase letter next to them. Please see the example below:

Example:
Conclusion
A. You should now know the health and psychological benefits of eating chocolate.
B. A quote from Michael Levine in Brenners text The Emperors of Chocolate: Inside the Secret World of Hershey and Mars, Chemically speaking, chocolate really is the worlds perfect food. (Walk to the center of the room and smile!)
C. Thank you

Bibliography
Brenner, Joel. The Emperors of Chocolate: Inside the Secret World of Hershey and Mars. New York, NY: Broadway Books. 2000. Print.

Citation: You must use MLA 8 citation style for the bibliography. However, you should integrate your citations within the other sections of your outline. Remember, if you cite a source within the introduction, body, or conclusion, it must appear on your bibliography page. If you have sources on your bibliography page, then they must appear in either the introduction, body, or conclusion.

Then ADD a visual presentation (POWERPOINT) to support it.
Overview
You are required to create a slide presentation that accommodates your oral delivery. The slide presentation cannot replace you as the speaker. However, it supports your main points in the speech. Slide presentations appeal to our visual senses and help us understand and remember the material. For example, if you were giving a speech on psoriasis, a skin disorder, then it would be helpful to show pictures of psoriasis and perhaps a brief bullet list of the contributors of psoriasis.

Can you tell me what should go on each slide from beginning to end? Yes.
First, you should have between 3-5 slides. The first slide is the cover. Think of your cover slides like a cover for a book or a magazine. On the cover slide, you should put a title that corresponds with your speech and your name at a minimum. You can also add a picture if you want. The inside slides should represent your main points. The last slide is either the bibliography or works cited for the slide presentation, or you can type Thank You.

What can I put on my slides? You can use pictures, pie charts, bar charts, line charts, word charts, bullet lists, diagrams, and drawings. Make sure that your charts and/or diagrams are easy to read from a distance.

Where can I locate pictures? You can use Pixabay (www.pixabay.com) or Google Images.

Can I put more than one picture on a slide? Yes, if it helps support the point that you are discussing. Be careful and try not to overcrowd the slide.

Can I add a video or sound? Yes, you can add a video or sound if they support what you are talking about. For example, a student once gave a speech on classical music, and after she explained each musical piece, she played a 30 second sound clip. So, make sure to keep your video clip or sound clip less than one minute so that it does not distract from your speech. Or, if you are going to use a sound clip for background noise, make sure that you are speaking loud enough that you can be heard over the background noise. For example, a student gave a speech about a natural disaster, and on one slide in the background, the student had a low siren play.
As you create your visual aid, keep your audience in mind. Dont bore them or waste your time typing a lot of text on your slide. Look for graphics or pictures to replace the wording.
Do I have to place my works cited or bibliography on the slide? It depends. Did you put a quote from someone on the slide? Did you use someone elses chart on your slide? Anything that you place on your slide that belongs to someone else and requires attribution (citation), then you must add works cited or bibliography. You also have to cite on the slide either by using a parenthetical citation or a caption.
What should I not put on slides?
You should not put paragraphs on your slides. You should not put any part of your introduction on the slide or any part of your conclusion on the slide.

The final edition will be evaluated and checked for plagiarism, so please be original and factual. Good luck-

To the writer thank you in advance…

Discuss other people in the field, both colleagues and competitors working at the time of your media mogul.

Pick a “Media Mogul” who has made a lasting contribution to his or her respective industry. Choice of subject must be approved by the professor. The paper should include a detailed biography of the person, his or her background, influences and interests in their lives, etc. Then outline the persons career and their rise through his/her chosen industry (and how they came to choose it). The paper should include a detailed discussion of business strategies, innovative techniques and creative insight the person employed to fundamentally make them deserving of the moniker Media Mogul.

Discuss other people in the field, both colleagues and competitors working at the time of your media mogul. Discuss how your person of choice worked with or competed against those people. Who was their nemesis, their idols, their allies. To give context to this section, include an overview of what the industry was like when this person worked in it. What was the predominant type of entertainment being produced during the time your media mogul worked in the industry? How did your subject enrich as well as alter it? Who were their primary competitors if any? How novel and long last was their contribution to the industry?

Define as best you can this persons big idea, or genius if you will. What could he or she see (or predict happening in the industry) that others did not anticipate or see as clearly as your media mogul did? How was he/she able to implement their vision?

In the next section of the paper: Pick a 21st century media mogul and compare and contrast them to your subject of choice. How are they similar in vision and working methodologies? How are they different? (eg.. Thomas Edison vs. Steve Jobs)

After comparing and contrasting your two choices as media moguls, discuss the similarities and differences you found between the moguls and their respective companies. (Examples: Walt Disney/Disney Company, Steve Jobs/Apple, Mary Pickford/United Artists, Oprah Winfrey/Harp Productions, Walter Paley/CBS, Mark Zuckerberg/Facebook)

The final paper breakdown should be roughly as follows: 40% of the paper should be spent on the 20th Century Media Mogul and their company, 40% of the paper should be spent the 21st Century Media Mogul and company and 20% comparing and contrasting the visions, tactics and outcomes between the two of them.
