2. You will be required to complete MINIMUM of a FULL 4 page, single-spaced paper. More specifically, the actual content of the paper itself must be a minimum of at least 4 COMPLETE single-spaced pages long, not including the title page, for full consideration. This assignment sheet is single-spaced so your paper should match it. The font size should be no larger than TWELVE (12). The font Times New Roman and character size for the text in this assignment sheet is 12, so your paper’s font and size should match this. The text of your essay should start one-inch from the top of the paper and end one inch from the bottom and this is required for each page. Spacing between paragraphs should be 1 centimeter throughout the entire essay. If the font and type size does not match it is an automatic 5 point deduction. If all margins are not in keeping with the instructions it is an automatic 5 point deduction. If the paper is not single-spaced throughout you will automatically lose an additional 5 points.
3. You must use at least FOUR qualified sources, this can include your textbook but NOT any of the other readings already provided to you by me in the course. In-text citations and a works cited page are required. Sources may include scholarly articles, scholarly periodicals, books, and credible online news sources/outlets. Encyclopedias (online or in print), blogs, and Wikipedia may NOT be used. You can always check with me to confirm if a source is acceptable. APA or MLA are acceptable.
A thorough historical summary of the policy is needed so do your research. This is a collegiate paper, so your work should be painstaking and reflect a committed effort on your part. Consult different sources to get an objective and accurate detailing of this policy and its history. Remember you are attempting policy research, so it is not based on your opinion or your emotional response to the subject matter.
2.) It is vital that you incorporate the terminologies and concepts we have been discussing into the assignment; therefore I will require you to utilize the following terminologies in the essay:
a. Sociological Imagination b. Manifest Function c. Latent Function
Hint: You must define these terms in your essay, argue their relevance, and correctly use the terms in relationship to the topic. Ask yourself, what is the manifest function of the policy? What is the latent function? How do you think C. Wright Mills would analyze the policy after reading his ideas in The Sociological Imagination? Use specifics from Mills’ article that you read.
3.) You must pick ONE of the “Big Three” Durkheim, Marx, or Weber and determine why they would be especially interested in the policy and its history. You must use and apply the specific concepts specifically associated with the person you choose in your analysis.
4.) You must discuss how TWO Consequences of Global Stratification can correctly be applied to the policy, its history and its effects.
5.) You must analyze the topic through the lens of ONE of the three major sociological theories;
a. Functionalism b. Conflict theory c. Symbolic Interaction theory.
Hint: Ask yourself how each of the paradigms would view the policy according to the features within each. Remember our “trigger words” associated with each classical theory and determine how each theory relates to the policy.
