    There is no hard-and-fast length requirement for the assignments. In providing your responses, use your good judgment. While we are not looking for extremely detailed and lengthy responses, neither are we looking for superficial answers comprised of several sentences. The key is to provide enough detail in your responses to demonstrate you have in-depth knowledge of the subject.

    In dealing with young, male perpetrators of street crime, you develop a sense that the threat of incarceration has not been an effective deterrent to committing crime. When young men are apprehended for committing a crime, many treat the occasion as “no big deal,” seeing it as a right-of-passage in the criminal milieu in which they operate.
    Based on your experience, as well as knowledge you have gained in graduate studies on human behavior, you believe that if novice criminals in their teens can undertake short term counseling, this counseling would provide stronger deterrence to committing crime than the threat of incarceration.
    The short term counseling would entail having identified subjects undergo weekly, one hour counseling sessions over a period of six weeks. The counseling sessions would be comprised of three components: 1) educate the subjects on how society views criminal activity as unacceptable; 2) educate them on the consequences of criminal activity – for the victims, for themselves, and for their family and friends; 3) provide them with an opportunity to articulate their life concerns, i.e., engage in a light level of psychological counseling.
    Let’s say you have received a grant to study your “theory.”

    1. Articulate your theory in one or two paragraphs. Explain the rationale underlying your theory.
    2. Articulate one or more hypotheses that you can test in your studies. Feel free to express them as straightforward hypotheses, or null hypotheses.
    3. How would you carry out your study? Briefly outline your research design, addressing the following points:
      •  Identifying a theoretical population of the boys/men you want to address in your study (e.g., Inner city Hispanic males between the ages of 12 and 25).
      • Identifying a sample of subjects. What is your sample frame (a sample frame is the listing of people you will choose your sample from)? How will they be sampled?
      • Identifying a list of independent variables that should be included in the study that might help explain why young men engage in criminal activity (e.g., age of subject, religious background, history of parents, gang member, heroes and role models, etc.)
      • Designing a study that will allow you to compare the deterrent effects of threatof-incarceration vs. counseling. Basically, what you should be concerned with here is to describe the methodology you will employ to test your hypothesis.
      • Identifying where the data for your study will come from (Questionnaires? Interviews? Observation of behavior? Tracking criminal records? Something else?
    4. How could you test the hypothesis you articulated in response 2 above?
    5. What limitations do you anticipate encountering in your study?

    Synthesize observed data from your court experience with research gleaned from at least five reliable, on the area of criminal justice you selected earlier in the term (arraignments, jury trials, sentencing, etc.). Compare and contrast what you personally observed in court with one or more normative positions argued or implied in your library research regarding how that particular area of criminal justice should function.

    Specifically, your final paper should include:

    • Your revised Court Report
    • An analysis of the area of criminal justice you observed and researched. First, describe the area of criminal justice. Then, analyze the components of that area of criminal justice, including relevant laws and policies, ethical obligations of involved legal professionals, and the ways in which societal variables such as race, class, gender, and level of by deal top”>EDUCATIONAL attainment affect proceedings in that area of criminal justice. Use your research to corroborate your discussion.
    • A comparison and contrast between the realities of what you observed and what your library research taught you. Describe what the law and ethics dictate should take place in this area of criminal justice (such as an explanation of charges during an arraignment), and discuss how what you observed did and/or did not conform to these expectations.
    • An evaluation of the conformities and the nonconformities you described in number 2 to arrive at a conclusion about what you observed versus the ideal in our criminal justice system, including suggestions for how the system could improve or, at least, better mirror the considerations of the law and of ethics.

    Present your response in an analytical research paper of 4 well-written pages. Paper must be in APA format and include references

    Essay Instructions:

    As the text reports, American society was transformed in the period from 1945 through the 1960s. During these years Americans experienced the benefits and costs of suburbanization, the creation of a national highway system, accelerated consumerism, a Cold War and Red Scare, and the resurgence of traditional gender norms. According to the authors of our text, these developments were interconnected – one or more fueling the others.

    In this essay you will focus on suburbanization, which was the material expression of post-war Americans’ desires for the resumption of social order and family life. Your task is to draw on the assigned reading to write a two-to-four-paged essay – typed and double-spaced – that answers the following questions:

    1. What fueled the growth of suburbs after World War II? Previously, most Americans had lived in cities.
    1. What was daily life like in 1950s and 1960s suburbs? Feel free to focus on any aspect of suburbanization, including the physical landscape, social life, gender roles in suburbia, etc.
    1. How (if at all) were suburbs a supportive or positive environment for men and women?
    1. In what ways (if at all) were the suburbs comfortable traps for men and women?
