“Reforming the Ottoman Empire: Challenges and Successes in the Nineteenth Century”
All discussion assignment participation should be informed by your critical synthesis of assigned reading, supplemental resources and additional research.
For your weekly “initial post,” you must address the assigned questions/topics with a thoughtfully-constructed response.
All initial posts should be cogently argued and supported by a minimum of two credible source citations from assigned or supplemental reading (ideally, with 50% or more citations from additional research via peer-reviewed journal articles or credible book chapters) and include citations.
For your participation posts, you must construct and post at least two “substantive” replies to your course-mates’ or instructor discussion conversations. Substantive replies must incorporate a minimum of one source/citation to support post observations and analysis (to include all footnote or end note source information); and must link the discussion(s) to the assigned lesson or course objectives.
If you meet or exceed these discussion participation expectations, you will earn full credit for weekly discussion participation. Your assessment scores will be documented each week in the course Gradebook; along with specific feedback describing shortfalls and reasons for any deductions.
Meeting all of the requirements for the discussion, please discuss the following question:
To what degree did continuing economic challenges foster reforms throughout the nineteenth century? How were these changes a product of internal and external forces? Would you consider the various reform programs of the nineteenth century successful? Why or Why not? What challenges did the Ottoman government face in implementing reforms? Be sure to be specific in your response regarding which reform program you are discussing.

“The Ethical Dilemma of Interest Group Lobbying in Democratic Systems”
Interest groups are a fundamental part of democratic systems, serving as a conduit for citizens to influence public policy. However, their lobbying efforts raise significant ethical concerns. On one hand, interest groups can amplify the voices of marginalized communities, ensuring diverse perspectives in the policy-making process. This pluralism is essential for a healthy democracy, where various societal interests compete for attention and resources, reflecting a broader range of public concerns than individual voters could alone.
On the other hand, the ethical implications of interest group lobbying cannot be overlooked. The disproportionate influence of wealthy interest groups, often through substantial financial contributions and extensive lobbying networks, can undermine the democratic principle of equal representation. This imbalance can skew policy outcomes in favor of those with the most resources, rather than the most pressing public needs. For example, corporate interest groups often have the financial clout to secure favorable legislation, sometimes at the expense of public health, environmental protection, or economic equality. -

Gawain is an important character in most Arthurian legends and, in fact, there are more tales written about Gawain than Lancelot.

Ethical Framework
In the wake of a global pandemic, healthcare systems worldwide face unprecedented challenges in allocating scarce resources, such as vaccines, ventilators, personal protective equipment (PPE), and intensive care unit (ICU) beds. An ethical framework is needed to guide decision-making and prioritize resource allocation based on principles of fairness, equity, and maximizing benefit for the greatest number of patients.
New City Hospital is experiencing a surge in COVID-19 cases, overwhelming its healthcare resources. The hospital’s ICU is at full capacity, and there is a shortage of ventilators and PPE. All employees and immunocompromised patients need to be vaccinated, but there is currently shortage of COVID19 vaccines. The hospital’s ethics committee is tasked with developing an ethical framework for resource allocation to guide healthcare providers in making difficult triage and supplies distribution decisions. You are one of the member of ethical committee who is tasked to developing the ethical framework.
Instructions:
Select 3 Ethical Framework/Theories (Utilitarianism, Rights-based, Duty-based, Justice-based, Virtue-based)
Explain each framework
Give one example of how each of the ethical frameworks would work in deciding a health care related situation above (ex. distributing vaccines, implementing new medication, PPE strategies, triage COVID19 patients, etc.)
What should the ethical committee should do in the process of ethical framework implementation to ensure the internal and external stakeholder can navigate resource constraints ethically.
