Of these three, only one may be a reliable web site. The other two must be from either a book (the textbook will count), an article from an academic journal or newspaper, or from any other acceptable primary or secondary source. If more than three research sources are used, then all those beyond the minimum three may be from reliable web sites. 5) Any style of source citation (APA, Chicago, MLA) is acceptable. 6) It is important to ask a question or to present an argument, or to highlight the significance (why is your chosen topic so critical to the study of the course in which you are enrolled) in your research paper. This must always be included in the introduction to the paper. 7) Following the introduction comes the core of the research paper in which you identify, detail and analyze the key points of your chosen topic. (This is essentially the “meat” of the research paper). 8) Your conclusion is basically the analytical summation of the research paper. The conclusion should defend how and/or why your chosen topic has contributed so critically to the study of the course in which you are enrolled, and how/why it will continue to be a major contributor in the future.

Khalil Muhammad claims that social scientists and statistical experts created the idea that African Americans are prone to crime and vice. Academics and social workers used arrest and imprisonment records to evaluate the moral progress of the African American community and to justify their claims that African Americans are inferior.   Please explain how social scientists used first biological determinism (ch.1) and then cultural determination (ch. 2) to create a link between blackness and crime/vice. How did this stereotype affect the willingness of social workers to provide assistance to blacks? Why were immigrants allowed to assimilate into U.S. society, while African Americans were not? In chapter six, Muhammad describes how black scholars and some of their white colleagues began to question the discrepancies between black and white arrest records. They argued that racist policing and prosecution were the real cause of the discrepancy. To what extent did the discussion of race and crime from 1880 to 1920 set the stage for our contemporary discussions of that topic today?

Write a 5-7 page double-spaced thesis-driven paper that addresses the following prompt. What is the ideal foreign policy doctrine for the Twenty-First Century? Which problems do you consider priorities, and which values (or combination of values) and approaches inform your doctrine?  -Questions to Consider Before Responding Here are some questions to prime your thinking, and may help you develop your argument:  What do you see as the most critical challenges confronting the US in the 21st Century, and how would you prioritize and respond to them? Why? In responding to these problems, would you pursue a liberal-internationalist policy, a realist policy, or a neo-conservative policy, or something else? Why? Would you work multilaterally or unilaterally? Diplomatically or militarily or via some combination of both? How would you manage economics and trade? Security and security policy?  How central should US economic, military, and cultural power be in maintaining the international system? Why? What similarities and differences between the Bush, Obama, and Trump Doctrines exist? What does the Trump Administration get right and wrong in its approach?  What values should inform US foreign policy, and why? What is (are) the best way(s) for the US to address these problems? Should the US develop an ad hoc foreign policy or articulate a “universal” doctrine or an “organizing principle” in response? Why? Is the US wrong to abdicate its central role in maintaining the core system (Haass, Drezner, etc.), or are US interests best served by pursuing unilateral interests?   Should the US seek an “indispensable,” “money-ball,” or “independent” America strategy (Bremmer)? In addition to the assigned readings and lectures, you may also elect to incorporate contemporary articles drawn from the discussions and the news to support your argument.  -Pre-Submission Checklist for Essay 3 Have you: clearly articulated your thesis (argument) in your introduction addressed each part of the prompt drawn on course material for support, and supplemented with outside materials when necessary formatted your paper using MLA edited your essay for clarity, flow, and tone in standard academic English, avoiding slang and other colloquial speech proofread your paper for writing mechanics (spelling, grammar, etc.) converted your file to “doc” or “docx” or “rtf” or “pdf” as needed
