The king of Curtaria needs your help! The absolute monarch of Curtaria has decided to transform his country into a democracy (more specifically, a constitutional republic). But the king desperately needs your scholarly assistance. The king will be convening a constituent assembly which will have the power to write a new constitution for the country. The members of the constituent assembly must decide whether Curtaria will adopt a presidential system or a parliamentary system and they must decide on what kind of electoral system the new democracy should institute. Additionally, the king, always interested in world politics, is convening a special panel of experts to give him advice on various political systems and their institutional and political strengths and weaknesses in managing catastrophic disasters, such as the current global coronavirus pandemic. As one of the top thirty social scientists in Curtaria, you have been asked to prepare some analysis for this panel.The king would like you to give your best advice to the members of the constituent assembly about what they should keep in mind while writing the new constitution.

Essay Prompt #1: Between the 1930s and 1940s, the United States witnessed the consolidation of the New Deal Order, that is, the political and economic system that presumed the necessity of government regulations, government promotion of public sector benefits, and a graduated income tax in order to curb the power of big business and to ensure the livelihood and purchasing power of American workers. By the 1970s and 1980s, the nation experienced the ascendance of political forces that rejected the New Deal Order in favor of a free market system, which aimed to promote free trade by liberating American business from government regulation and from the social safety net that had been built on the foundations of the New Deal.Assess the historical significance of this shift. How and why did this shift take place, and what has been its impact on American society? Has the shift toward a free market system made American society more free and democratic? What does it mean for the future of the nation and its people?

The story should function as an illustration of one of the theories. As you write it, keep in mind the major assumptions of the theory you choose, regarding what factors (social, individual, structural, environmental, etc.) lead a person toward crime. You do not have to explicitly state these theoretical assumptions within the biography, but instead make sure that the theory is reflected in the person’s decisions and actions. Be sure your facts and examples are specific enough to relate to the theory’s concepts. 2. A theoretical application section (1-2 pages) addressing the following (please write this in paragraph form, not in question/answer form): a. Describe the theory you chose. How does it account for the origins of criminal behavior? b. How does the theory you chose explain the main character’s behavior? c. Describe a specific policy change that could be made to ensure that people like the main character in your paper do not engage in crime. 3. You should also include a reference page listing all sources cited. (If you are describing a specific theory, you should be citing at minimum some of the materials assigned for the course, although you are welcome to use outside scholarly sources to support your arguments.) 2. Description of Theory: Ability to provide specific detailed information explaining the theory’s assumptions. 3. Application of Theory: Ability to correctly explain how the theory you chose explains the behavior of the character in your biography. 4. Policy Recommendation: Ability to draft a policy change rooted in your chosen theory, which could prevent future offending of the type your character engaged in. 5. Writing Quality: Make sure to proofread your papers for spelling, grammar, phrasing, formatting, etc. The theory you choose must be a specific theory, not a general category of criminological theories. For example, choosing “developmental theory” would not be appropriate, because this is a category that contains several theories; however, you could choose “Moffitt’s theory of adolescence-limited vs. life-course offending” from within that category. Similarly, you should not choose “environmental theory” but you could choose “routine activity theory” as a specific theory that falls under that area.

Gender role development theory essentially falls into two main categories, biological and social-cognitive. (1) With regards the social-cognitive perspective, cognitive-developmental theory stresses that children progress through three stages of gender role development, from a general understanding of gender at age 3, to an appreciation of gender stability through time, and finally to a complete understanding of gender invariance at age seven. (2) A child’s perception of themselves comes about at this time, and their own- sex schema may develop. Biology is a major factor in this process, and neither biological or social theories can account for 100% of a child’s posit of self. Social constructs regarding gender roles can have a monumental influence on the way a child develops their sense of self within the world. The father teaching his sons to be “tough” will likely have sons that value those characteristics, regardless of their own related abilities. The mother teaching daughters to be effeminate will convey to her children that those traits have value for them. Again, both of these social-cognitive stimuli can engrain in a child’s mind what is expected of them, but cannot fully create the child’s own gender role and self assuredness. As an example, gender androgyny is far more common than many realize, and the spectrum therein includes far more than gentianella. XX and XY chromosomes are often attributed to being strictly female or strictly male, however differing hormone levels, primary sex characteristics and secondary sex characteristics (breasts, bone structure etc.) can all exist. Different variations from XX and XY controlling all male and all female aspects, biologically, present in roughly 2% of the U.S. population. (3) That’s the same percentage as genetic redheads. Raising girls and boys, without acknowledgement that it is ok for a boy to cook or a girl to drive a truck does a great disservice to a whole population. Gender norms, I believe, propagate gender norms and nothing more. Personal, behavioral and environmental factors all, obviously, influence personality, but I disagree that all boys were made to be raised as boys.

Pergamon Press.POST 2Gender RolesContains unread postsDan Badgley posted May 19, 2020 10:43 PMAs we consider gender roles, we have to keep in mind not to fall into a heteronormative stance. Heteronormative as defined by Merriam-Webster is of, relating to, or based on the attitude that homosexuality is the only normal and natural expression of sexuality. (Kowalski) On Bill Nye’s new show Bill Nye Saves the World he had an episode called “ (Murray, 2017)Which means that yes at one-point science said that gender was male or female but now it’s more complex than that. Even younger children can come to understand their gender. By a young age most kids can identify to a gender and sometimes it doesn’t always match to the sex they were assigned at birth. As a society we have to realize that not everyone will fall into the same box that is the “norm.” In truth there is no true norm we as a species is remarkable unique. A person’s gender is a personal thing. The reason that we are seeing more gender fluid persons or transgender is because of a society shift. Being LGBT is no longer frowned upon in most areas. We can walk down the streets and hold our heads up high. No longer having to have to hide in the closet and deny who we are. Speaking from experience hiding who you are is like holding your breath. In the movie “Love Simon” the mother has a conversation with Simon she says “I knew you had a secret. When you were little, you were so carefree. But these last few years, more and more, it almost like I can feel you holding your breath… I need you to hear this: you are still you… you get to exhale now. You get to be more you than you have been in a very long time. You deserve everything you want.” When my partner and friends saw that movie all four of us were bawling our eyes out. It hit the nail on the head and resonated with all of us. Being in the closet is like holding your breath, trying to keep it in and not showing your true self. I say throw all the gender roles out the window when raising kids. Let the boys play with dolls. Let the girls use tools and get dirty. Let children be children and make their own choices. They will choose what roles fit them best. As Bill Nye said in “The Sexual Spectrum” “Sure, this might make things confusing for those who insist everyone pick an M or an F. But, people, we have to listen to science, and the science says we’re all on a spectrum.” Resources Kowalski, B. M., & Scheitle, C. P. (2020). Sexual Identity and Attitudes About Gender Roles.
