Assignment Topic: A personal and reflective essay on the prospects for a sustainable society and how, if at all, it might be achieved. This is an individual assignment which is intended to develop your thinking and understanding of the debate surrounding sustainable development. The intention of theis assessment is to allow you as individuals to become personally better informed of the debate and arguments for a sustainable society, whether and how it might be achieved and what role tourism is playing and can play in any such changes.
The starting point will be the chapter Can Modern-day Prophets Redirect Society? taken from a book Environmentalists: Vanguard for a New Society, (1984) by Lester Milbrath (to be provided to members of the class). The chapter concerns social change, environmental threats, and whether science and technology does or does not offer the means for a secure future for humanity and others.
It sets up two competing arguments for social change based on different and incompatible worldviews or paradigms. The chapter provides the background for the assessment, and indeed the overall course, and seeks to get you to consider where you stand on these issues, and why. Milbrath raises a number of questions in this chapter on the prospects for a sustainable society, and how it may be best achieved. o Where do you stand on these issues? Why?

o Do you believe there are limits to human and economic growth?
o Are energy and other resources constraints on human development?
o Should we accept environmental risks to promote growth?
o Are humans seriously damaging the environment?
o What role should the market, government, corporations, scientists, NGOs, tourism businesses, and the public play in these issues?
o Who and how should we decide how we live our lives? This assignment requires you to: (1) Milbarth review and reflection: The identification of the issues raised in Milbraths chapter, and where you personally stand on these and why (approximately 1000-1500 words).
(2) Lecture program critique and reflection. The MHR280 course includes a series of lectures, each associated with published empirical research. One of these aspects of the course will be written up and incorporated into your reflective essay. This part of your reflective essay will need to outline the research context (the issue/s in question), critique the study and its findings. Then outline how this case study informs your thinking on the issues you have identified in (1). (approximately 1500 words).
(3) Conclude your essay. Remember, this is a personal and reflective piece of writing which should clearly outline your views on the issues that are addressed in this essay (approximately 300-500 words).

A group of African-American police officers filed suit against the City of Little Rock, Arkansas, alleging racial discrimination by the police department in the promotion of officers. The promotions were made by selecting those officers who were ranked highest on a composite score ranking list, based on the score of a written exam and the weighted score from an interview. The interview was conducted by senior officers who were all Caucasian, and the scoring was done subjectively by those officers. The African-American officers produced evidence showing that the African-Americans averaged a score of 39.6 on the written exam, while Caucasian officers averaged a score of 38.5. For the interview, African-Americans were given an average score of 12.96 points, while Caucasians were given an average score of 14.38 points. The effect of the composite ranking of the two scores for candidates for promotion was that, because after the interview, African-Americans, on average, went down 14 positions on the composite ranking, while Caucasians, on average, went up one position. Since promotions were based on relative ranking by composite score, African-Americans were not likely to be promoted; indeed, the department had only one African-American officer promoted above sergeant in its history.

How are these apparent through their words and actions? How do they negatively affect others? Finally, discuss any positive changes or moment(s) of truth that suggest their final redemption. Be sure that you show through quoting and analyzing the strong possibility of their more enlightened perspective at the end of the story. (Your thesis, will make a claim about either the Grandmothers, or The Misfits characteristics, and how /why it is apparent that she/he changes at the end. Avoid phrases like I think, or I believe, or I suppose You are not being asked to intuit or guess anything about these characters. Instead, you look at their words, actions, reactions, thoughts, etc. and you logically deduce their meaning and significance in relation to your thesis. The answers are all in the text and how you analyze it, not in your guesswork, or intuitive response. You can only SHOW how you arrive at conclusions through your use of short quotes and your discussion and analysis of these.

Avoid seeking for answers on the internet or in critical essays. Rely on your own powers of assessing and understanding! I will know if you have resorted to Cliff Notes or other sources.
Note: If you wish, you may use ONE outside source that supports your analyses. This must be an academic source from the library, not from the internet. Recognise this source according to M.L.A. conventions within your text with parentheses, and on a Works Cited Sheet at the end of your paper.
Further Note: Refer to my handout on including quotations in your paper. No need to introduce quotes by referring to the narrator/author. No need to mention the reader. Just integrate short quotes naturally into your paper so the whole sentence, your words and the quoted words make sense.
