The purpose of this assignment is to apply what you have learned throughout this course in an analysis and assessment of the past and present correctional ideologies to determine appropriate directions for future correctional programming. An analysis of recent political and social influences (get tough sentencing, legalization, deinstitutionalization, etc.) should be used in this analysis with a focus on the demographics of those under correctional supervision and whether the political and social influences are based in the realities of the correctional setting. Additionally, no less than two pieces of current legislation (within the last 20 years) should be assessed in your analysis of future directions for correctional programming.

“Negotiation Analysis of a Real-Life Case: Applying Course Concepts and Theories”
Description of assignment
Students will work on a complex case and they will need to analyse and evaluate the negotiation(s) that have been made with the critical application of course concepts and theories. Please note, by no means are students expected to try to apply all the theories and concepts we cover in the course. The selection and application of RELEVANT concepts and theories for the analysis is the task and forms part of the assessment. So is the way students’ collection and assessment of the information about their case.
Topic:
Own choice of real-life case – recent (within a maximum of 12 months!) or current, ongoing. The case topic can be a general issue (a recent international negotiation, for example) or a recent business case.
I am expecting students to find their own topic of interest for this work. Famous historical cases will not be accepted. Also, cases that are older than 12 months will not be accepted. If in doubt, check with the module leader. Students will have to research their case by using news items, or company information.
Further details in the Appendix.
