Assess your neighborhood as an exemplar of a geographic community.
The assessment should pay particular attention to how oppression, power, and privilege are manifested in inequalities and institutional biases that impede optimal human development and jeopardize well-being.

o Demographics
o How has this community evolved over time?
o Assessment of resources (educational facilities, housing, health and welfare systems) with a particular attention to access to these resources
o How are issues of diversity and power illustrated in the neighborhood?
o What are some of the formal and informal rules of this community (social control)?
o What do you see as the strengths and weaknesses of this community? What could the community do to maximize its strengths and minimize its weaknesses?
o What do you see as the future of this community?
The assessment should also focus on assets and strengths of the neighborhood and community, and on capacity building.

Do you feel the federal marijuana laws should be changed? (American Government)
Question:
Since Colorado and Washington legalized recreational marijuana in late 2012 many other states have followed suit. Even in states where recreational marijuana has not been legalized (Connecticut and Maryland for example) it has been decriminalized (meaning penalties for possession up to a certain amount has been reduced to a simple fine).
Since 2012 nine states total have legalized recreational marijuana and many other states have legalized and/or softened their laws on both medical marijuana and marijuana possession.
Currently, neither recreational or medical marijuana is legal under federal law. The question here not only has implications on drug legalization, societal impacts, but on the challenges of federalism itself.
For example, if someone own a marijuana dispensary in Colorado how would they go about filing my federal tax return? Or, if two companies exchange medical marijuana from two states where it is legal, how would the federal government go about policing that activity?
Would it be worth using valuable (and limited) resources prosecuting marijuana violations considering so many states are either making legal, or at the very least, decriminalizing it?
Paper Assignment Question:
Do you feel the federal marijuana laws should be changed?
If yes, how so and why? Some other questions you may want to ponder are: Is there any societal consequences if it is federally legalized? What if the US legalizes marijuana but many states do not?
If no, then please elaborate on the consequences and challenges of maintaining the status quo.

The first stage in the planning process is a preliminary country analysis.
The marketer needs basic information to evaluate a country marketís potential, identify problems that would eliminate a country from further consideration, identify aspects of the countryís environment that need further study, evaluate the components of the marketing mix for possible adaptation, and develop a strategic marketing plan.
Many companies, large and small, have a country notebook for each country in which they do business. The country notebook contains information a marketer should be aware of when making decisions involving a specific country market.
As new information is collected, the country notebook is continually updated by the country or product manager.
Whenever a marketing decision is made involving a country, the country notebook is the first database consulted. New-product introductions, changes in advertising programs, and other marketing program decisions begin with the country notebook. It also serves as a quick introduction for new personnel assuming responsibility for a country market.
Together this project encompasses four separate section/guidelines for collection and analysis of market data and preparation of a country notebook:
(1) Cultural analysis
(2) Economic analysis,
(3) Market audit and competitive analysis, and
(4) Preliminary marketing plan.
These guidelines suggest the kinds of information a marketer can gather to enhance planning. The points in each of the guidelines are general.
They are designed to provide direction to areas to explore for relevant data. In each guideline, specific points must be adapted to reflect a companyís products and/or services.
The decision as to the appropriateness of specific data and the depth of coverage depends on company objectives, product characteristics, and the country market. Keep in mind that not all points in the guidelines are important for some countries or some products and should be ignored.
Cultural Analysis (Part 1):
The data suggested in the cultural analysis include information that helps the marketer make market planning decisions. However, its application extends beyond product and market analysis to being an important source of information for someone interested in understanding business customs and other important cultural features of the country. The information in this analysis must be more than a collection of facts.
Whoever is responsible for the preparation of this material should attempt to interpret the meaning of cultural information. That is, how does the information help in understanding the effect on the market? For example, the fact that almost all the populations of Italy and Mexico are Catholic is an interesting statistic but not nearly as useful as understanding the effect of Catholicism on values, beliefs, and other aspects of market behavior.
Furthermore, even though both countries are predominantly Catholic, the influence of their individual and unique interpretation and practice of Catholicism can result in important differences in market behavior.
