Week 1 Case Study: Imperialism and ExploitationSubmit Assignment Points 100 Submitting a file uploadIntroductionThe exploitation of colonial resources and indigenous labor was one of the key elements in the success of imperialism. Such exploitation was a result of the prevalent ethnocentrism of the time and was justified by the unscientific concept of social Darwinism, which praised the characteristics of white Europeans and inaccurately ascribed negative characteristics to indigenous peoples. A famous poem of the time by Rudyard Kipling, White Man's Burden, called on imperial powers, and particularly the U.S., which the poem was directed at, to take up the mission of civilizing these "savage" peoples.InstructionsRead the poem at the following link:Link (website): White Man’s Burden (Rudyard Kipling) (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.After reading the poem, address the following in a case study analysis:Define social Darwinism in your own words.Analyze the motivations and consequences that Kipling presents for undertaking the "White Man's Burden."What specific examples of ethnocentrism can you identify?Were the "Half-devil and half-child" peoples truly uncivilized?Writing Requirements (APA format) Length: 2-3 pages (not including title page or references page)1-inch marginsDouble spaced12-point Times New Roman fontTitle pageReferences pageRubricCase Study Grading Rubric - 100 ptsCase Study Grading Rubric - 100 ptsCriteriaRatingsPtsThis criterion is linked to a Learning OutcomeLength5.0 ptsMeets length requirement0.0 ptsDoes not meet length requirement5.0 ptsThis criterion is linked to a Learning OutcomeContent10.0 ptsPaper addresses all aspects of the assignment.8.5 ptsPaper addresses most aspects of the assignment.7.5 ptsPaper addresses some aspects of the assignment.6.0 ptsPaper addresses few aspects of the assignment.0.0 ptsNo effort10.0 ptsThis criterion is linked to a Learning OutcomeAnalysis30.0 ptsThroughout the whole work, content expresses original thoughts or interprets the subject matter in a different perspective.25.5 ptsThroughout most of the work, content expresses original thoughts or interprets the subject matter in a different perspective.22.5 ptsThroughout some of the work, content expresses original thoughts or interprets the subject matter in a different perspective.18.0 ptsThroughout little of the work, content expresses original thoughts or interprets the subject matter in a different perspective.0.0 ptsNo effort30.0 ptsThis criterion is linked to a Learning OutcomeSupport20.0 ptsThroughout the whole work, claims are supported with detailed and persuasive examples; accurate facts and circumstances are used for support.17.0 ptsThroughout most of the work, claims are supported with detailed and persuasive examples; accurate facts and circumstances are used for support.15.0 ptsThroughout some of the work, claims are supported with detailed and persuasive examples; accurate facts and circumstances are used for support.12.0 ptsThroughout little of the work, claims are supported with detailed and persuasive examples; accurate facts and circumstances are used for support.0.0 ptsNo effort20.0 ptsThis criterion is linked to a Learning OutcomeGrammar, Mechanics, and Style20.0 ptsThroughout the whole work, the text is free of major errors in grammar, spelling, and punctuation; demonstrates strong word choice and sentence variety.17.0 ptsThroughout most of the work, the text is free of major errors in grammar, spelling, and punctuation; demonstrates strong word choice and sentence variety.15.0 ptsThroughout some of the work, the text is free of major errors in grammar, spelling, and punctuation; demonstrates strong word choice and sentence variety.12.0 ptsThroughout little of the work, the text is free of major errors in grammar, spelling, and punctuation; demonstrates strong word choice and sentence variety.0.0 ptsNo effort20.0 ptsThis criterion is linked to a Learning OutcomeAPA: Citation and Reference Formatting10.0 ptsThroughout the whole work, in-text references are formatted using APA style; references page includes complete bibliographic information for sources using APA style.8.5 ptsThroughout most of the work, in-text references are formatted using APA style; references page includes complete bibliographic information for sources using APA style.7.5 ptsThroughout some of the work, in-text references are formatted using APA style; references page includes complete bibliographic information for sources using APA style.6.0 ptsThroughout little of the work, in-text references are formatted using APA style; references page includes complete bibliographic information for sources using APA style.0.0 ptsNo effort10.0 ptsThis criterion is linked to a Learning OutcomeAPA: Title Page & References Page5.0 ptsPaper includes both title page and references page.2.5 ptsPaper includes either a title page or references page.0.0 ptsPaper does not include a title page or references page.5.0 ptsTotal Points: 100.0PreviousNext

SCS 100 Theme 2: Marriage Graphic Organizer Using the three different representations of marriage presented in the learning block (polyandry, arranged marriages, and walking marriages), fill in the graphic organizer below. In Part A, you will have to first identify the biases you have regarding marriage and their influence on your perspective of marriage. In Part B, you will then take an objective stance and discuss the advantages and disadvantages of these types of marriage. In Part C, you will create a question a social scientist might ask to further the investigation of marriage. In this first step, do your best to identify three of your biases on marriage due to your culture and religion. The American culture and legal system generally allow only one type of marriage. What type of bias does this embed in us? The religions that people belong to and practice can also impact their biases toward marriage, depending on how their chosen religion defines marriage. How does this influence your perspective of marriage in general? How does this bias influence your perspective on these specific types of marriage? Biases Bias 1: Bias 2: Bias 3: Influence of the Biases While it is impossible to “check our culture and biases at the door” and become totally objective, we can identify our biases (as you have already done above) and try to ignore them in order to consider other points of view. In this next step, take a culturally relativistic standpoint (in other words, try to overcome your biases) and consider the tenets of each type of marriage. Why might these other forms of marriage be more successful or advantageous in certain contexts than the Western concept of marriage (based on love and monogamy)? Then, from that same culturally relativistic standpoint, also consider some possible drawbacks to these forms of marriage.Create a question: In this learning block, you were given a lot of information about marriage and what marriage means in different cultures. You were also asked to think about what marriage means to you. The next step is to take the information you have been given and create a question a social scientist might ask to further the investigation of marriage. For example, after reading about arranged marriages, you might ask: Are rates of depression higher in women in arranged marriages? Social scientists use existing information to come up with new questions. This is the iterative process of social science research.

Read the ACA or ASCA Code of Ethics and compare the positions that each takes on issues of dual relationships. Provide examples of dual relationships for which these codes do not give definitive guidance about the appropriateness of the relationship. How should a counselor make a decision to enter or not enter into a dual relationship?
