The Weimar Republic has often been characterized as a “a democracy without democrats” and “a republic without republicans.” (Note that these words do not mean “Democrats” and “Republicans” in the contemporary American sense–political parties–but rather refer to the political system and the form of state in place in Germany at the time.)

Each student will prepare a research paper that systematically reviews and critiques a major theory of crime causation. The audience for your paper is researchers seeking to do work on that theory.

Every paper should accomplish three goals. First, it should describe the historical and intellectual background of a theory, and then clearly describe its causal arguments. Second, it should describe the empirical research that has sought to test those causal arguments. Third, it should discuss the important issues to be addressed in future research.

If you were asked to audit, evaluate, and assess the capabilities and potential of an organisation and its leadership, what set of criteria would you use to assist and guide you in expediting this task? What would you look for, or measure, in making your diagnosis,and why? What would you expect your ‘toolbox’ of evaluative criteria to tell you about how the organisation and its leadership functions in the pursuit of its purposes? What concepts, theories, and ideas would you draw upon to assist the organisation and its leadership to better understand and improve its capacities and capabilities? What recommendations or suggestions might you make to enhance the organisation’s capabilities, and why? To assist you with this task, you may, if you wish, select an organisation with which you are familiar to scaffold your analysis and assessment, and your recommendations. In writing up this task, carefully explain and justify your formative interpretations, your diagnostic assertions and claims, and the concluding recommendations and advice that you develop.
