WORLD RELIGION WEEK 3 DISCUSION

QUESTION

Select one option below for this week’s Discussion.

OPTION A:

Scholars continue to debate the academic nature of Buddhism as to whether it should be identified as a religion or a philosophy. Based upon your studies and research this week, compare and contrast these two positions and then academically defend ONE SIDE of this debate by clearly demonstrating your position as to why you believe the practice of Buddhism is best identified as a religion OR a philosophy.

OPTION B:

The Four Noble Truths serve as the foundational teachings of Buddhism as they seek to address the issues of human suffering in the world. Given the major premise found within the Four Noble Truths, what relationship do you find in Buddhism for offering a response to the practice of gaining self-identity through the practice of Consumerism found in our society today and illustrate the prospect for the growth of Buddhism in America as it relates to your research? In addressing this issue, you will need to identify, define, and apply the Four Noble Truths from which you will academically defend your position.

goals and expectations;

  • organizational culture; and

Describe the situation (the key is to include all relevant details and avoid irrelevant information).

Explain the challenge.

Describe the outcome.

Social Pathology, Degeneracy, and Medicalization

QUESTION

Reading Assignment 4

Social Pathology, Degeneracy and Medicalization

Introduction, Tammy L. Anderson /

Social Pathology: A Systematic Approach to the Theory of Sociopathic Behavior, Edwin Lemert /

Whatever Happened to Social Pathology? Conceptual Fashions and the Sociology of Deviance, Joel Best /

The Shifting Engines of Medicalization, Peter Conrad / 17. Connections: Mental Illness as Degeneracy and Disease, Victor Perez, Critical Thinking Questions /

Points Possible: 20

Deliverable Length: 2-3 pages

Answer two questions:

  1. 1.  Define and differentiate between Anderson’s use of the concepts degeneracy and medicalization (pp. 170-171). Do you agree with Anderson that social pathology has limited use in the study of society and deviance?  Why or why not?

2.   Summarize Lemert’s treatment of psychological/psychiatric and sociological approaches to the study of sociopathic behavior (pp.176-177).

  1. 3.    Best claims that social pathology as a viable concept “gradually fell out of style” by the 1960s, replaced by a more relativistic emphasis on deviance. Then he makes a similar argument for the “death” of the concept of deviance in the present day.  Summarize his three principles of deviance definition (pp. 181-182) which are now debated as inadequate to the task.

HCAD510 AMU CEO Transition Navigating Past Operations and Future Management Discussion

Question

HCAD 510: Case 13.1 Lakshmi Patel is the new CEO at a medical center. The agenda for her first meeting with the senior management team includes the following questions:

-What has been the primary purpose of the senior management meetings in the past? What was discussed? What was accomplished? What do you want to be the primary purpose of these meetings moving forward? What should we discuss? What should we accomplish?

– What meeting format do you prefer? Do you think that format will enable us to better meet our goals? Do each of you have a clear understanding of your roles? Do each of you help one another? How much cooperation and sharing should we expect from this team? 

Case 13.1 Questions (to answer)  1. You are one of Lakshmi’s vice presidents. How would you answer these questions? 2. Should Lakshmi discuss these questions privately with each senior management member before raising them in the full group meeting (and therefore getting more open feedback than in an open meeting)? If so, how should she proceed after these private meetings?
