Social Issue Paper Macro and Structural level (Causal Factors)
After researching your operationalized topic, you will conduct a detailed analysis of the issue.
Your analysis should include:
Why this is a social issue?
Who is affected (demographic and quantitive data)?
How they are affected?
What social, political and economic forces are contributing to/producing the issue?
What are different perspectives on the issue (government, media, advocacy groups, for example)?
What strategies for change are being initiated at a macro level?
Research Hints: Your proposal identified your social issue, population and problem – add social issue and these can become some of your research words. Use your year range of 5 years. Again, do not forget to include Toronto, Ontario and Canada to your search or Toronto and/or province.
