Suppose the 2025 unemployment rate was 9.5%, and had been in that range for six months, and the consumer price index, the most common measure of inflation, was virtually unchanged over the same time period, indicating that there are virtually no inflationary pressures in the economy at that time. Assume you are the President’s Chief Economic Advisor, and she is relying on your advice.

The President wants to know what has caused the above economic situation (excessive unemployment and virtually no inflation) to occur. (Please discuss this in terms of the general cause(s) of excessive unemployment and stable prices.) Additionally, she would like to know what policy actions the government could enact in order to eliminate the nation’s stated economic problem.

Please prepare a short memo (paper) in which you discuss:

the possible cause(s) of the above problem (9.5% unemployment and virtually no inflation) in terms of valid economic theory. (Again, please discuss this in terms of the general cause(s) of excessive unemployment and stable prices.)
the potential discretionary fiscal policy actions that might be undertaken in order to eliminate the problem.
the potential monetary policy that might be undertaken in order to eliminate the problem.
Also,

Be sure to explain how and why these actions will help to eliminate the problem. (These explanations should be complete and accurate and done in terms of economic theory.)
Which action would you personally recommend the President enact? Why? (There is no one correct response to this “personal preference” question. The correctness of your response depends on the completeness and economic correctness of your explanation.)
Finally,

Would your explanation of the cause of the problem and your suggested policy actions be different if the economy was facing an unemployment rate of 9.5% and an inflation rate of 10%?
How would you explain the existence of both unemployment and inflation at the same time?
What policy action(s) would you suggest the government undertake to eliminate this two-sided problem and how would it work to lessen both unemployment and inflation simultaneously?
(Again, these explanations should be complete and accurate and done in terms of economic theory.)

DETAILED PROJECT DIRECTIONS:
This project is worth 100 points and should be submitted (is due) no later than midnight Sunday April 26, 2015. If the paper is submitted after that date, the grade will be reduced 5 points for each day it is late.
Write me (the President) an economic memo (essay) discussing the problems outlined above. The paper should be about 4 pages in length but can be longer if necessary. (Please try to keep your paper to a maximum of 6 pages.)
In your paper discuss the factor(s) that may have caused unemployment to rise to 9.5% in 2025 while inflation is virtually non-existent. (Again, please discuss this in terms of the general cause(s) of excessive unemployment and stable prices.)
Discuss what discretionary fiscal policy actions the government could enact in order to eliminate this high unemployment rate (which is combined with no inflation) and explain how these actions can eliminate the excessive unemployment.
Additionally, discuss what monetary policy actions the Federal Reserve could enact in order to eliminate this high unemployment rate (which is combined with no inflation) and explain how these actions can eliminate the excessive unemployment.
Which action would you personally recommend the government enact? Why? (There is no one correct response to this “personal preference” question. The correctness of your response depends on the completeness and economic correctness of your explanation.)
Finally, discuss the factor(s) that may have caused the second hypothetical situation – the unemployment rising to 9.5% and the inflation rate rising to 10% – to occur.
What policy action(s) could the government enact in order to eliminate this combination of excessive unemployment and high inflation? How could this action (these actions) eliminate both the excessive unemployment and the high level of inflation?
All explanations must be done in terms of economic theory.
Once again, the paper should be about 4 pages in length, double-spaced, with normal margins (about 1 inch) and normal font size (usually size 12). (The paper can be longer than 4 pages if necessary, but please try to keep your paper to a maximum of 6 pages.)

Begin writing your essay! As you do so, keep in mind that better essays are those that develop a strong line of argument, which is well structured and balances description and critical analysis. Good questions to ask yourself are:

• ‘Does this point relate to the main ideas I want to get across or does it distract the reader’?

‘Does the point I am making answer the question? Does it relate to the point before and after it, and if so how?

• ‘So what? What is the significance of this point? Why am I writing about it?’

• ‘How can I prove my point?’ ‘What sources can I use to support my argument?’

• ‘Do I agree with the perspective presented in the source that I am discussing? Why/why not?’

• ‘How does the perspective of the author that I am discussing compare/contrast with some of

• ‘How does the perspective of the author that I am discussing compare/contrast with some of
the others?’ ‘What is unique/interesting about what this author has to say?’

At a minimum, students are expected to:
• Answer all components of the question and follow the academic protocols for essay writing.
• Refer to AT LEAST 5 academic sources (two of which should fall outside the scope of the set
readings) in developing/supporting their argument.
• Ensure that their essays are logically structured, coherent and free of spelling and grammatical
errors.
• Ensure that essays are correctly referenced and free from plagiarism.

Assignment – Case Study – Due: 4th May 2015

Students are required to analyse a policy area with an intensive focus on one policy document. The case study requires three component parts:

1. Provide a background summary of the policy area
2. Identify and discuss the key themes developed within the policy document
3. Identify and discuss the language and kinds of metaphor in your chosen policy document and discuss the implications of these for policy document

>>> Please read the powerpoint slides with lecture notes I noted down, and the journal articles that I have provided for a better understanding of the language and rhetoric use in social policy (in week 5), and the use of metaphors in social policy (in week 7). The files I have sent you are essential components to understanding the whole idea of this assignment. <<< More details on assignment below.. - It is a document analysis of a particular policy document. - Not all policy documents are called ‘The Australian Government Policy on Single Parent Family’. They might be a framework, or a strategic plan. Not all are necessarily a government document as we all know policy environment is complex and have a lot of different players. It doesn’t have to be a legislation as it is hard to analyse. - For example, analyse a policy like ‘our social media policy for Anglo care’. >> What is a policy document?

A policy document sets out an agenda for change.
For example, a document released by the liberal party saying: this is our policy for tackling the boats: for people seeking asylum by boats. It wasn’t a government document.

Can look at government departments, but not all of it is social policy documents. Some are frameworks, plans, and agenda for change.

Some policies are procedural policy. For example, the use of social media by staff. Don’t look for what people in the organization should or should not do. Look at a policy that address particular certain challenges.

– It needs to be a document about a social policy field. Look at what social policy is, process of social policy and what’s involved to make it clearer about your assignment. Look at government website – state, local, and also NGOs.

– The main focus is the language analysis. Look at these ideas about metaphors and rhetoric, and identify them.

>> Find some pedagogical, constitutive & heuristic metaphor in the policy document that will help you look at the document policy more carefully. The detailed descriptions of these are in the PowerPoint slides and article readings.

– Find these kinds of metaphors in your policy document.
Look for a document where rhetoric and metaphors is there.

>> Look for specific metaphors and the language in the policy document. What agenda has been seen to be carried by the policy maker?

– e.g. homelessness and opendoors – look at that. In what way (pedagogic, constitutive, heuristic metaphors) has it constructed the policy of homelessness & opendoors policy?

>> Look for a policy that has a lot of language in it.

Language in the social policy sphere often says we’re dealing with vulnerability. A lot of power is constructed upon stories that are told. Stories matter.

HAVE to identify language in the policy document.

>> Style of Assignment

– Use headings to have an easy essay structure.
– The style of the assignment has to be descriptive, analytical, and structured.
– You have to think: What is this issue? What is the document talking about?

>> How do we reference our analysis of the document?

– As you are doing a case study, everything you write don’t have to be referenced. However, it is important to be sure that you have to be clear about what you are talking about.

– Bring literature to your discussion.

– Identify the three metaphors (as discussed in the lecture slides) in the policy document. What are they? And reference the literature where you understand the meaning of what pedagogical, constitutive & heuristic metaphor means to you – in which literature did it say that pedagogical means this? And then identify these metaphors in the policy document.

The requirements for coursework are as follows:
Not all labour that organizations benefit from and even rely on is performed by those working for the organization, neither is such labour necessarily paid labour. The so-called online services shift tasks previously carried out by organizations onto the users of the service, the consumers. The same is the case with ‘self-service’ options made available for (or forced upon to) the customers at airports and supermarkets. With the advancement of technology and related cultural practices and values make the possibility of doing free labour ubiquitous, desirable and even ‘necessary’.

For this essay you are to discuss the rise and/or prevalence ‘free labour’ and the ways in which both organizations and those using the services or products produced by them rely on free labour. Drawing from module materials, examine ‘free labour’ through at least one of the following topic areas explored in the module:
– Open source and peer production
– Social networks and network cultures
– Non-work time as commodity
– Mash-ups and remixes

You do not need to discuss all of these topics. You will be assessed on the quality, not quantity of your discussion. Whichever topic you choose, make sure it is substantively different from what you did in the first assignment in terms of topic and content.

• Essays should be 3000 words in length (+/- the usual 10% margin).
• Your essay should include a title page and a bibliography, which includes the full reference for all articles, books and other sources you have cited in the body of the text. The bibliography (and any footnotes) need not be included in the word count.
• The essay must be word-processed double-spaced using a standard font (such as Garamond, Times New Roman or Arial) in 12 point.
