Description

Class Power and Inequality; Final paper Option (200 points)

Report due 12/7 via Canvas by 11AM (5-6 pages; 200 points)

This assignment is to write critical overview of a topic related inequality (race, class, gender, sexuality, etc.). The goal of the assignment is to summarize a social problem or issue related inequality, power, or class in US society or abroad. You should find several sources to summarize the key features of the selected urban problem or issue.

In this paper, choosing a topic that is interesting and researchable is vital. This topic should be specific enough that it is focused and coherent yet broad enough to be able to find others who have been interested in the same topic. A good way to determine if your paper topic will work is to formulate your topic as a research question. Examples of excellent topics/questions might be “How does racial segregation in urban/suburban schools affect student outcomes?”; “How has the growth of finance affected income inequality in affluent countries?”; “How has the War on Drugs created racial and class inequalities in American society?” or “How do social programs provided by the government and social organizations help and/or hurt the poor?” If you are unsure about the quality of your topic, please email me.

The paper should be divided into five sections marked off by headings (Ex: Introduction). In the first section, the Introduction, you should briefly describe your research topic/question, why you decided to research the topic, and why this topic is relevant to society. You should also give a very brief overview of the literature you will examine in the body of the paper. In the Key Issues section, you should go into more detail on the topic that you chose and make connections between the different readings and research found on your topic. A good way to approach this section is to identify the main causes, consequences, and potential solutions to the problem that you are examining. A major challenge to this assignment is to remain concise in order to not go too far over the page limit. You should have identified at least 5 sources for the report. All sources should be properly cited in the paper using ASA (or a similar format) and included in the references section. In the Evaluation section, you should briefly evaluate the literature you have examined. Questions to answer include: What evidence do you find convincing? What evidence is not as convincing and why? What new questions do you have? In the Conclusion section, you should briefly restate your research topic/question, briefly summarize the literature and how you evaluated, and then state what you feel you have learned from writing this paper. The final section is the References section.

This 5-6 page paper should be written in Times New Roman 12-point font, double or 2-point line spacing, and standard margins (1 inch).

PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS ASSIGNMENT IS DUE AT 11AM and not 11pm as usual.

INTERPERSONAL RACISM IN THE NORTH VS SOUTH
Introduction
Social inequalities and class have been a major problem in the world. Class and inequality
can be defined as the systematic disparities that arise due to differences in power and goals.
These disparities occur almost in every place in the current world such as in the workplaces,
in the organization and all over the society. Such inequalities may be based on gender, race,
political and economic differences. It also includes unequal resource distribution that is
based on already socially established patterns. If these patterns are not addressed, the people
at the lower end will find it hard moving to the upper end of the social pyramid.
This paper tries to determine the role that education can play in eradicating these disparities.
Education has been recognized by many policymakers as one of the best methods for shaping
the quality of life and the future economic well-being of society. Proper training systems and
knowledge-based education are some of the pre-conditions that lie in the heart of every
nation’s strategy. Education is important in aspects such as social inclusion, equity assurance
and personal integration of people with different backgrounds and diverse civic participation
including the migrants.
A lot of challenges have been encountered due to the problem of class and social inequalities
such as terrorism which has been seen to target particular social classes; hence proper
education mechanism has been pointed out as a better solution to this problem.
Key issues
Research has shown that there is an existence of several forms of inequalities in the world.
Jobs are not enough in the society and not everybody that is employed is paid well. For
instance, in the health care departments, the rising death rates are directly linked to the poor
