<strong>Assignment</strong> 1: <strong>Position</strong> <strong>Paper</strong><br />

Due <strong>Week</strong> 2 and worth 140 points<br />

Public administration is an essential link between citizens and<br />

governments. With the rapid pace of globalization, the public<br />

sector is under even greater pressure to increase its capacity to<br />

deal with the new challenges and opportunities that<br />

globalization presents. The relationship of globalization and<br />

governance is multidimensional. States / countries with high<br />

levels of integration with the rest of the world tend to have<br />

better governance outcomes on the whole. Of course, the<br />

quality of governance can be directly related to the social and<br />

economic integration between states. The gross domestic<br />

product (GDP) per capita, religion, natural resources,<br />

fractionalization, and government size largely decide the<br />

outcomes.<br />

Like globalization, governance can be conceived broadly or<br />

narrowly. How does globalization affect macroeconomic<br />

policymaking?<br />

In this assignment, you are expected to select one (1) country<br />

and:<br />

Discuss a significant issue / challenge arising from<br />

globalization that has taken place in the last three to six (3-6)<br />

months.


Critically evaluate the current policy(ies) for the issue /<br />

challenge.<br />

Consider possible alternatives.<br />

Advocate a particular policy choice and provide rationale.<br />

Use the Internet to conduct research for this assignment. Here<br />

are two (2) resources to get you started:<br />

Write a one to two (1-2) page paper in which you:<br />

Provide an introduction and context for the issue / challenge.<br />

Summarize what existing literature says about the selected<br />

issue / challenge and the selected country's policies impacting<br />

the issue.<br />

Suggest two (2) policy options that the selected country's<br />

government could follow in order to resolve the issue /<br />

challenge.<br />

Recommend one (1) policy action based on your analysis of a<br />

set of alternatives. Provide a rationale for your<br />

recommendation.<br />

Provide at least three (3) reliable, relevant, peer-reviewed<br />

references (no more than one [1] used previously), published<br />

within the last five (5) years that support the paper's claims.<br />
