1. POLICY ISSUE AND TITLE
In this section, you will select a policy issue from the list on
page 1 and create a title for your Policy Analysis.
a. What policy issue did you select?
b. Do you comprehensively understand the issue? Can you
identify two or three distinct positions on the issue?
c. Create the title of your Policy Analysis. When creating a title
for your Policy Analysis, consider how you can simultaneously
capture the attention of your readers and communicate your
position.
2. CONTEXT AND IMPORTANCE OF THE ISSUE In this
section, you will frame and define the issue.
a. How will you introduce the issue?
4. b. Define the problem or issue that your government or actor
must address.
c. How will you demonstrate the relevance and urgency of the
issue for modern society?
d. Which groups, individuals, and communities (stakeholders)
are affected by the issues that you will be analyzing?
e. Research the ways that these groups’ goals and interests
might be altered by the policies you are proposing. Try to write
out concise explanations of each group’s goals and the things
that they value.
f. Research the ways that organizations or communities might
change or adapt to upheavals in the societies in which they
exist. Explain the circumstances in which these changes might
take place. Next, consider other changes and transformations
that these groups could undergo and summarize those in a
similar way.
g. What evidence will you use to support this section of your
paper?
3. RATIONALE AND JUSTIFICATION FOR YOUR POSITION
In this section, you will compile a rationale and justification for
your position.
a. Are stakeholders groups exposed to unjustifiable risks? Are
the stake holders you have identified especially vulnerable?
b. Are any of your stakeholders marginalized within society?
Are they part of a highly privileged social group?
c. What are the likely consequences of ignoring stakeholders’
5. needs? Remember to write concise answers and to consider a
range of alternative outcomes – never claim that one set of
consequences is inevitable.
4. PROPOSE A COURSE OF ACTION
In this section, you will propose a course of action in order to
address the selected issue.
a. Position statement: What is your position on the issue? Is it
specific and clear? State it in one or two sentences.
b. Propose a course of action: What should be done to solve the
problem? Consider the broad approach and specific practical
steps or measures that need to be taken and by whom. Is the
solution you propose feasible and implementable?
c. Reinforce your position: What points of your argument will
you draw together to restate and reinforce your position?
d. If your policy-making choices are relatively limited, justify
your choice my referring to your position statement and to the
outcomes of any alternative choices.
e. Consider the practical factors affecting your policy. How
hard will it be for the government to implement your plan?
What costs will the government have to pay? Is the
government’s ability to act or to extend its authority limited by
laws or international agreements?
f. What will the political impact of your policy be? How will
6. the changes that you want the state to bring about affect its
authority? What is the political cost of the policy?
5. ARGUMENTATION AND EVIDENCEThe last section of
your memorandum should prove why your proposal will be
effective. Ask yourself why the policy you have designed will
produce the outcomes that you claim it will have. If your policy
responses are relatively limited, you should use this section to
justify your choice by using a lot of your available word-count
to explain why the decision that you support will have a
positive impact on the state – explain, for instance, why
ratifying a trade agreement will be good for your state’s
exporters and agricultural industry.a. What evidence will you
use to support this section of your paper?
b. Do you have enough evidence to support all elements of your
paper? (i.e., to introduce and define the issue, to show the
importance of the issue, to support your position, to refute
counter-arguments, etc.)
c. Do you have the range of evidence you need to support
different points of your argument? Match evidence and sources
to different points of your arguments.
6. CLOSING REMARKS
In this section, you will create your first draft of closing
remarks for your paper in Assignment 5.
a. Provide an interesting reflection or create a question to close
your paper.
b. Recap the issue for your conclusion and make any
recommendations for change (policy decisions).
