Week 3- Preference List& Week 5- Social Sustainabiility Indicators

1. Week 3: This week your preference list is due for your Sustainability in Organizations/ Civic Engagement term project. This is the first step in preparing for your term project. For students choosing Sustainability in Organizations, please use this link to the right of the screen to submit your preference list (see the Sustainability in Organizations module to review if needed). Identify three potential organizations from SOC381_OrganizationList-2.docxPreview the documentView in a new window (or submit one of your own). I will do my best to give you one of your top choices yet I cannot promise anything. Also to remind you, I will allow up to two students to work on the same organization yet I expect each student to do their own work. I will give precedence to those that turn them in first based on the time stamp. For students choosing the Civic Engagement project, please make a preference list if three organizations you have found in your community that you would like to work with.

community organizations

�Critically compare and contrast the governance and management of any three (3) Community Sector Organisations of your choice, with special reference to how they demonstrate their effectiveness in achieving organisational objectives.� The essential elements of the assignment are as follows: (a) An Introduction which provides a concise overview of the work of each organisation. (b) The use of a �typology� or grid as a clear and concise visual summary of the differences and similarities in the governance and management of the three organisations. Please Note: The number of aspects of governance and management compared should not exceed five (5), so as to avoid overly complex and unwieldy analyses. (c) A critical discussion of the material summarised in the grid in (b), with reference to appropriate literature. (d) A discussion of how each organisation seeks to demonstrate effectiveness. This could be done in different ways, limited only by students� own creativity. For example:

Maryland SOCY 313 – Discuss how a society can be relatively

Appreciate at least two paragraphs for each question. 1. Discuss how a society can be relatively stable and orderly and yet be unfair and unjust. (identify your standards or criteria of a just society). (a) What do you suppose Karl Marx might have said about a capitalist society capable of being fair and "just"? (b)What would Marx say about the social safety net offered by Sweden or Denmark in comparison to the one provided by government in America? (c) whereas complete economic equality is unrealistic, can't a society function at a reasonable level of economic inequality coupled with a strong social safety net for the entire population? 2. Rationality, science and technology represent a world view of our age. Certainly so in the developed world. With all that is occurring in the world, why would you describe this phenomenon as a double-edged sword in terms of the present and future of humankind? (the good and the bad consequences)  

Sociologists research and write about current

Sociologists research and write about current topics that are culturally, politically, socially, and economically important. One such subject is same-sex marriage. For this assignment, you will research a few court cases. Your goal here is to study this subject as a scientist would. Therefore, it does not matter whether you agree with the ruling or not, you can still write objectively about it. Use the Internet to find court cases and news articles from mainstream news outlets to use for your references, along with the textbook. Begin by looking up the Loving v. Virginiacase. Next, list the states that allow same-sex marriage. What were some of the arguments the states used in their legalization? What were some of the legal arguments against same-sex marriage? (Note: When looking for information, please refrain from religious reasoning or personal opinions; remember, you are looking at this as a scientist.) Do you think that the Supreme Court's ruling on Loving v. Virginiachanged much
