Individual critical analyses of a problem or opportunity described in an article or case posted on Canvas. Critical analyses must be a maximum of three pages in length; only the first three pages will be read and evaluated by the instructor. You will identify the problem or opportunity and discuss a viable solution based on your analysis of the case. The general structure of all critical analyses:

• Describe the business situation, including the macro-environmental and micro-environmental conditions facing the organization.
• Develop the problem statement: the opportunity or threat facing the organization.
• What alternative strategies and programs would you consider to deal with the opportunity or threat to the organization?Present each alternative in sufficient detail to give the reader an idea of why it may be beneficial.
• Recommend one or more of the alternatives you have identified.Inform the reader of your reasons for these recommendations.
• Describe tracking metrics to determine whether your recommended strategies and programs are effective.Be sure to include both intermediate and conclusive metrics to guide management’s redirection of ineffective strategies.
• Summarize what you have learned from your critical analysis.

You are encouraged to do external research on the industry or the company as a context for your analysis. In-text source citations and a comprehensive bibliography are required.Your report must include the focal reading plus at least three references in addition to the company’s website . ( MLA format)

Theory Application

The tenets of good theory include concepts being logically consistent, using parsimony (conciseness), being comprehensive in scope, being heuristic (yields something of value), and being testable. “Bad” theory refers to theories that are not testable and therefore nonfalsifiable. Freudian theory (psychodynamic) is an example of a nonfalsifiable theory, yet we still find it very useful in helping us think and conceptualize. Theories of crimes help us understand the genesis or origins of crimes in our communities. Some theories are macro in perspective, while others are very specific or micro. Criminological theories often are considered to be “middle range,” meaning they have applicability to specific populations but not to others.

Some of the theories you will be examining include labelingtheory, which views social labels as stigmata that impede a person’s social progression (ex-con, former mental patient, whore, thief). Social structure theory focuses on economic reasons for crime such as poverty or living in high-poverty areas. Strain theory is the inability to achieve cultural goals through institutional means. Neutralization theory suggests that people are not criminals all the time but instead drift from conventional to illegal behaviors using rationalizations to justify their drifting. Social control theory is unique in asking the question why don’tpeople commit crime and is explained via a person’s attachments and stake in conformity.

For this Assignment you will apply theories to explain the risks of becoming an offender.
