analyze a current affairs article about a religion and discuss its economic impact.

 Goal: The goal of this assignment is for the student to analyze a current affairs article about a religion and discuss its economic impact.Learning Objectives: 2, 3, & 4Description:Throughout your studies in World Religions, you have been introduced to a variety of religious worldviews that are impacting a society and the marketplace in a variety of ways that can be both positive and negative for a community. The task for your Week #5 Project is to write a Current Affairs Worldview Essay that demonstrates the contemporary application as to how and in what ways a particular religion is impacting a society’s economy and marketplace today. You will want to research articles that clearly reference specific financial data including special financial studies and reports, profit/loss reports, Gross National Products (GNP), and financial percentages that are being generated for a particular locale as the result of a religion that we have or will study only in this class.An example of a possible title for such an article might be this: (“Study Finds Islamic Sholat Reducing Saudi Arabia GNP”). Here, the specific locale is Saudi Arabia – the religion impacted is Islam – the issue is that the time Muslims spend in daily prayer (Sholat) results in a financial loss of production for time away reducing Saudi Arabia’s GNP by 2% annually. Your article should highlight clear financial data as opposed to generalizations. (Ex: in the above article it points out that lost production in Saudi Arabia resulted in a 2% loss to the Gross National Product (GNP) or a loss of 3 trillion US dollars over last year.)The key to this assignment is to think outside of the box and use your critical thinking skills to practically apply the course materials on religion and transfer that thinking in such a way to consider how a religion might impact the economy? If you have trouble finding an article or resource, you can always “Contact a Librarian” from the APUS Trefry Library who will be able to assist you. Note that this is not a research essay where you seek out a variety of resources to highlight your topic. Here, you are to focus on just one (1) single article and offer your review of it in terms of a summary of the content and your personal application of it for your study of world religions. (See the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill’s Book Review Handout for detailed information and examples.) There should only be one (1) resource listed in your Works Cited page.Your essay should include the following and should have a publication date of 5 years or less:Be sure to use good writing and mechanical techniques and include the use of academically approved Citation Formats with in-text citations and a resource page to identify your resource and avoid plagiarism.You will need to upload your Current Affairs Worldview Essay as an attachment in the correct file for presentation and final grading by your instructor. It will automatically be reviewed by Turnitin.com for plagiarism and an Originality Report will be generated. Please be sure to review the Grading Rubric in advance so that you will have a good idea of the expectations for this Essay.

identify aspects of how jazz has changed from Early Jazz to Swing.

 1) From your readings from the Walser text, we have two writers having radically different responses to emerging jazz music (Chapter 4, Ernest Ansermet, and Chapter 9, Anne Shaw Faulker). In this discussion forum, discuss how either author engages with race (either explicitly or implicitly). 2) In This unit we studied the 1920s and 1930s, which encompass New Orleans/Early Jazz and the Swing era. With that in mind, identify aspects of how jazz has changed from Early Jazz to Swing. You can focus on some of the musical elements discussed in the readings and in the lectures that are characteristic of swing music or you can base your post on your personal/aesthetic response to the music (for example, do the different musical styles evoke different kinds of emotions, or different physical responses, etc.). Feel free to discuss any of the recordings assigned this week or used as musical examples in this week’s lectures, as well as recordings from outside the class.

explore and describe each of your two examples, its historical context, and the reasons it arose.

 In Assignment 2, we ask you to choose one of two topic choices listed below on the subject of economic change and innovation in the period of the late 1800s and early 1900s, then use the Writing Guide provided in Blackboard to write a paper on the subject. One topic is on the individual level of pioneering entrepreneurs of the period, who developed distinctive strategies for the production and marketing of very different parts types of products. The other topic is on the macro level, exploring successful and unsuccessful government attempts to shape and regulate the changing industrial economy of the period. As you prepare and brainstorm your paper, first read and review what our Schultz textbook covers on the subject. Then, consider the other sources listed with each topic below. It is important that you review these sources carefully because you must use a minimum of three sources (from the list below) to write your paper.TOPIC CHOICE ONE: Innovative Entrepreneurs—Walker and FordHere you will focus on the business approaches of Madame C. J. Walker and Henry Ford. Both developed innovative and successful approaches in a time of rapid economic change. You will compare them in the way they started their respective businesses and the key innovative features that made each successful. One might find virtues, problems and successes associated with both. You might see elements of each in strategies of later leaders and related issues even today.Sources: Schultz, p. 396–7 (only Ford is discussed in our textbook). For Madam C. J. Walker (1867–1919), see http://www.madamcjwalker.com/bios/madam-c-j-walker/; and https://www.pbs.org/wnet/african-americans-many-rivers-to-cross/history/100-amazing-facts/madam-walker-the-first-black-american-woman-to-be-a-self-made-millionaire/ . For Henry Ford, see https://www.history.com/topics/inventions/henry-ford.TOPIC CHOICE TWO: Government Economic Policies—Hits and MissesHere you will choose two historical examples from the following list: Prohibition; Hawley-Smoot Tariff; Sherman Antitrust Act; Pure Food and Drug Act; Federal Trade Commission; Civilian Conservation Corps; Agricultural Adjustment Act; the Wagner Act, and the Social Security Act. These are examples of government economic intervention or economic policy in the long period from 1870 to 1940. These might be thought of as burdensome government interference or as needed government regulation, depending on the example and one’s thinking on those things. For your paper, you will explore and describe each of your two examples, its historical context, and the reasons it arose. One might find virtues, problems and successes associated with both. You might see elements of each in examples in our current economy today.Sources: Schultz, p. 362–4, 367, 401–2, 417, 425–9, 432.

Clearly identify the main economics topic or issue raised in the article, the article’s title, date of publication, publisher and author.

 Des?r?ption This assignment involves analyzing and interpreting a recently published economics article. You will research and select one article published within the past year that discusses an economics issue and explain the economics concepts implied in the article. The article may be obtained from a major business or economics journal, magazine, or newspaper (The Economist, Wall Street Journal, Businessweek, Times, Fortune, etc.) and should discuss a key economic issue. Using your own words as much as possible, you will then proceed to explain the main points of the article by connecting it to the economics concepts you have learned in Chapters 1- 11 of your textbook, and interpreting the economic relevance to individuals, firms, and industry. Objectives Identify the key economic issues being discussed in real world scenarios. Interpret and understand opinion on economic issues by applying economic concepts and principles. Evaluate the implications of changes in economic conditions on the behavior of households and firms. Identify possible ways to increase the growth of productivity and profits for the firm. Required Materials Ragan, C. T. S. (2017). Microeconomics (15th Canadian ed.). Don Mills, Canada: Pearson Education Canada. Review Chapters 1-11 of the course textbook Recently published Business/Economic journal articles from Yorkville University Library or other academically credible online source. Major Topics Covered in Chapters 1-11: Supply, demand and equilibrium market price Elasticity Price controls and market efficiency Consumer behaviour Production in the short and long run periods Competitive markets Monopoly, cartels and price discrimination Imperfect competition and strategic behaviour Instructions Your paper should have a minimum of five credible references listed as sources for this paper. Upload your research essay as a Word (or some other compatible word processor). Your paper should include the following main sections: 1. Introduction and identification of key economic issues and concepts. In this section of the paper, explain in summary the intent of the article and how the author fulfils this objective in the article. a. Clearly identify the main economics topic or issue raised in the article, the article’s title, date of publication, publisher and author. b. Note that the article must have been published within the past year from a reputable source. c. While the author will elaborate the issue, you will identify the economics concept(s) attendant to it. That is, what economic principles, theories or concepts apply to the article? 2. Relevance of the economic issue. In the second section you will focus on explaining the importance of the economic issue(s) cited in the article and its relevance to individuals, firms, and/or government. a. Most economic issues have implications for consumers, or producers, or to the nation as a whole. Examine and discuss the possible meaning and importance of the issue to these groups. 3. Explanation of the economic concepts. This is the core section of the paper where you will use economic theory and illustrations (usually graphs) to explain the economic principles or theories that apply to the issues raised in the article. a. You will utilize your knowledge of economics to connect what the author is claiming to economic theory. In other words, use this section to explain the economic theory relevant to the issue and describe how it relates to the author’s argument. b. The key in this section is your skill in explaining how the economic theory applies to the reality of the economic issue being discussed. 4. Conclusion. Summarize what you have learned from reviewing and interpreting the article and the main concepts that were reinforced in your review.
