Question 1.
Violence, danger, and fear in relation to sexuality have been reoccurring themes in readings and films this the semester.
Discuss how violence and safety may affect sexuality and gender in following three types of spaces: the street, ‘home’, and ‘institutional’ spaces.
Question 2.
While we have primarily focused on thinking about sex and gender in urban contexts during this course, we have also examined suburbs, rural spaces, and cyber space.
Discuss the different affordances these spaces have for sexuality and gender.
Question 3.
Discuss the films How to Survive a Plague and Tangerine in terms of ‘optics’ and ‘respectability’. Be specific about the particular issues and contexts. Make sure you discuss them in relation to the urban spaces depicted in the films/histories.
Question 4.
What does the term ‘moral geography’ mean? Discuss the moral geography of sex in contemporary American society. Write about this in relation to social reproduction, leisure time, consumption of sex, and family planning.
Question 5.
At different points during the semester we have read about and discussed the impact of sound and light.
Use two examples from our course materials to discuss and explain how sound/silence and light/darkness affect performances of gender and expressions of sexuality.
Addressing Intelligence Related to Homeland Security
This written assignment is comprised of addressing intelligence related to homeland security and you will develop a research paper on this topic of 5-6 full pages (not counting the title page and reference list):
What are the capabilities and limitations of domestic intelligence efforts in supporting the homeland security enterprise? Do you feel that the U.S. is appropriately structured and resourced to adequately provide timely,
accurate and actionable domestic intelligence to support the entire spectrum of intelligence users (customers) from the Federal government down to state and local agencies (both now and into the future)?
This paper should provide an examination of the various elements that comprise U.S. domestic intelligence efforts (from local law enforcement to national intelligence agencies) and how those entities contribute to the
supporting the homeland security enterprise in collaboratively protecting American Citizens. In crafting your paper, it would be good to remember the lessons learned from the 9/11 Commission on the difficulties of
getting various agencies from all three levels of government to collaborate as well as intelligence sharing lessons/recommendations. Also, address the capability of the homeland security enterprise to adequately
identify and address future challenges. In developing your response, you should address challenges of providing for homeland security while maintaining civil liberties as well as emerging trends and patterns such as
homegrown terrorism and the proliferation of communication encryption technologies.
Note: As mentioned earlier in this course, remember that “homeland security” is made up of much more than just DHS. That agency is only one part of a larger Homeland Security Enterprise that includes [DHS]
Departmental leaders and components [the 7 field agencies including USCG, CBP, ICE, USSS, etc], state, local, tribal, territorial and private sector partners and other… https://www.dhs.gov/strengthening-homeland-
security-enterprise as well as many other essential federal agencies that play a role in HLS, such as the very important DOJ where the FBI is the lead agency for countering terrorism in the US (not DHS). Of importance in
this paper is the role of the FBI as both a federal law enforcement arm, as well as its role as a a domestic focused intelligence organization.
Make sure you read the instructions carefully and that you focus your paper on answering the assigned questions. This assignment is a research paper, not an opinion paper, so you need to use scholarly sources to
support your thesis. Use formal academic writing and do not use the first person such as ‘I’ or ‘my’; see the OWL site on academic writing style (using appropriate language). Make sure you use APA style in-text
parenthetical citations at the end of every sentence where you are quoting another’s ideas (or any information) that is not your own thoughts and words, like this (Bergen, 2015, para 14). Citations are required for
paraphrases as well, but not the page or paragraph number in that case. I
Requirements:
– Written according to the APA style and format (parenthetical in-text citation formats only; not end notes or footnotes);
– Use Times New Roman 12 point font;
– 1 inch margins on all sides with no paragraph indentation other than the first line by .5 inches
– Double space all text (no extra lines or spaces after a paragraph or section headings and no added font sizes or lines either)
– A minimum of six scholarly sources is required; cited in the paper as in-text citations and included on the reference page. Use those academic and credible sources provided to you throughout the course, as well as other scholarly material obtained from conducting your own research. Freely utilize appropriate and reputable academic sources, summarize in your own words (paraphrase) and cite accordingly.
– The paper must be free of typographical, spelling and grammatical errors (make sure to proof read before submission)
– The appropriate SSGS Assignment Rubric 300-400 Level Classes Assignment Rubric (as appropriate for this course) will be used to evaluate this assignment.
Finally, be mindful of excessive direct quotes as the paper should not contain just a string of quotations from sources.
