For this assignment, you will emulate the final written assignment, which is based on Amartya Sen and Martha Nussbaum’s Theory on the “Capability Approach” as noted in the required text. This theory suggest that if certain conditions exist within a society, societal members are likely to thrive. Based on this idea, select a country, examine the political and economic system within that society. Your written observation should include the types of political andeconomic systems, and the form of leadership that exist within your selected country. You must also discuss how these institutions (i.e. polity, economics and leadership) might affect societal member’s abilities to reach their full potential, (for example, the institutions could be based on strict religious ideology, or gender and/or racial bias. The economic and/or political systems could be unstable, the leader could be a dictator, and/or there could be a threat or war within your selected society, etc.). Within your written observation, you must also include a discussion of the Gross Domestic Product (look it up online), which may reveal the opportunities available or unavailable to societal members within a particular society. Finally, choose two of the four variables listed below that you believe best characterize a “good society,” which means the best conditions for societal members to thrive. These variables could include, the health conditions of societal members (such as life expectancy, access to medical care, etc.), exposure to pollution (such asliving near an industrial plant or dump site, etc.), access to education (could include literacy rates, high school graduation, college admission, etc.), and civil and political rights (such as voting rights, freedom of expression, etc.). In other words, based on the bolded categories noted above, what are some examples of variables (negative or positive) that fall under those categories that have enabled societal members in your selected country to thrive or fail. There are no limits on your creative process. You may use whatever sources you deem necessary to discover the required information, but official government websites may be your best option. Depending on your choice of country, information may be limited (the media may be censored in some countries, limiting freedom of speech, therefore vital information), so be creative in how you measure the abilities of societal members to reach their greatest potential. In order to receive full credit for this assignment, you must submit at the minimum one (1), but no more than two (2) pages in length discussing your findings. In addition, you must include at least two (2) intext citations and a reference page including the sources that you cited within the text. Note, citations and references must match, and your choice of sources must include at least one (1) author, anonymous sources are unacceptable for this assignment. Your paper must be typed and submitted to the appropriate D2L Dropbox no later than 11:59 p.m. on May 23, 2024. The written assignment is worth twenty (20) possible points toward your final grade. Two points will be deducted for each missing element, so be careful, but creative!

“The Mental Health Impact of Exploitative Labor Practices on Undocumented Workers: A Comprehensive Analysis”
Analysis Abstract: The exploitation of undocumented workers through labor practices such as wage theft and limited access to healthcare has long been a concern in contemporary society. Such practices have been known to have a negative impact on the mental health of this population, which in turn can lead to a higher risk of crime rates. This research paper aims to provide a detailed examination of the relationship between exploitative labor practices and mental health outcomes among undocumented workers by conducting a comprehensive analysis of peer-reviewed articles and data-driven reports. The paper provides an overview of Karl Marx’s theory of exploitation and its relevance to the study of mental health outcomes among undocumented workers. The paper also examines the impact of exploitative labor practices on the mental health of undocumented workers, including depression, anxiety, PTSD, and suicide. Finally, the paper discusses the implications of these findings and provides recommendations for addressing exploitative labor practices to promote the mental health and well-being of undocumented workers.
Introduction: The exploitation of undocumented workers through labor practices such as wage theft and limited access to healthcare is a pervasive issue in contemporary society. The lack of legal status and social protections for undocumented workers means that they are often subject to labor exploitation. Such practices have been found to have a negative impact on the mental health of this population, which in turn can lead to a higher risk of crime rates. This paper aims to examine the relationship between exploitative labor practices and mental health outcomes among undocumented workers. To achieve this, a comprehensive analysis of peer-reviewed articles and data-driven reports was conducted. The paper also provides an overview of Karl Marx’s theory of exploitation and its relevance to the study of mental health outcomes among undocumented workers. The paper also examines the impact of exploitative labor practices on the mental health of undocumented workers, including depression, anxiety, PTSD, and suicide. Finally, the paper discusses the implications of these findings and provides recommendations for addressing exploitative labor practices to promote the mental health and well-being of undocumented workers. -
