Social Media and the Boston Marathon Bombings: A Case Study By: George Haddow and Kim Haddow , Posted on: June 4, 2015 As we reach the final stretch of the capital trial of the Boston Marathon bomber, we present this case study on social media that was originally published in the author’s book Disaster Communications in a Changing Media World : Case Study: BPD and Social Media At 2:49 PM on April 15, 2013 two bombs exploded near the finish line of the annual Boston Marathon killing three people and injuring 264. The first reports about the about the terrorist attack were spread through Twitter and Facebook. At 2:59 PM the Boston Globe tweeted: “BREAKING NEWS: Two powerful explosions detonated in quick succession right next to the Boston Marathon finish line this afternoon.” Minutes later, the Boston Police Department confirmed the explosion in a tweet. And in a separate tweet soon after reported: “22 injured. 2 dead #tweetfromthebeat via @CherylFiandaca ” According to Topsy, a Twitter analytics company, at around 4:10 p.m. there were more than 300,000 mentions on Twitter of “Boston explosions.” (Stern, 2013) In a second wave of social media, details about the event spread. Media that included photos of blood covering the ground and a six-second Vine video of the actual explosion was circulated, deepening people’s sense of what had happened. Around 4:30 p.m., there were more than 700,000 mentions on Twitter of the “Boston Marathon.” (Stern, 2013) Even though television was the most widely-used source of information about the bombing and its aftermath, it was social media that shaped the story and the response. While 80% of Americans followed the story on TV according to the Pew Research Center, about half (49%) say they kept up with news and information online or on a mobile device and a quarter of Americans got information about the explosions and the hunt for the bombers on social networking sites such as Facebook and Twitter. Young Americans in particular kept up-to-date through social media. Slightly more than half (56%) of an 18-to-29 year subgroup polled by Pew got bombing-related news through social networking sites. (Pew Research Center, 2013). The Boston bombings and the manhunt that followed became the backdrop for the world to witness the transformation – for good and for bad — in news gathering and distribution, and in disaster management and crises communications caused by social media platforms and technology. The Boston Marathon bombings were a watershed, a moment that marked forever the changed role of social media and the fully participatory public in breaking news events and coverage. The New York Times wrote: It is America’s first fully interactive national tragedy of the social media age.” (Kakutani, 2013) From marathon runners giving their accounts on Facebook, to law enforcement officials using Twitter to give real-time updates and asking for help identifying and capturing the suspects, to th.

Social marketing applies commercial marketing strategies to promote public health. Social marketing is widely used to influence health behavior. Social marketers use a wide range of health communication strategies based on mass media, they also use mediated (example, through a healthcare provider), interpersonal, and other modes of communication, and marketing methods such as message placement (for example, in clinics), promotion, dissemination, and community level outreach. Social marketing encompasses all of these strategies. Courtesy: NIH Application of social marketing strategies for measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccination. in young children’s. People in many developing countries have misgivings, fear and other reasons against MMR vaccination resulting in resurgence or disease epidemics. Social marketing theory work well in countering these obstacles while encouraging administration of the vaccine to improve the health of the society. Concepts- 1. Consumer orientation- In this approach planning, implementation and evaluation strategies of consumer marketing is employed to motivate the parents for vaccination of their children’s against MMR. We took advice from people to what change we make to adopt this healthy behavior. Needs assessment this message is appropriate from them what barrier environment we have to take. Also take care how people respond to the healthy behavior. Citizen advisory panels help to get feedback. 2. Audience segmentation- . Parents of the children are selected that largely influences the success of MMR vaccination in the children. Positive behavior change to vaccinate their children is encouraged by educating them and creating awareness about the complications associated with MMR viral epidemics. We target the group which have similar variable and advise them. 3. Channel analysis- Method to deliver the required message and the desired place to target the population/desired audience (parents). Usage of print ,news and online social media to convey the benefits and the risks associated with vaccinating and not vaccinating with MMR Other places that can be targeted are gynecologic and pediatrics hospitals while utilizing other public places with posters to spread the awareness and the benefits of MMR. We also have to find appropriate time when to advertise and advice these desired population. 4. Strategy- In this stage of planning the idea is to meet the objectives. We can use different strategies like making the vaccine available in every hospital facility for easy access, making vaccine cost effective to eliminate the barriers of our target population. 5. Process tracking- In this evaluation phase of the program we check and monitor if the applied interventions are rightly executed to achieve the objectives. After undertaking surveys, reviewing and revisiting the steps, progress can be tracked. We can also obtain feedback from the target population to improve and enhance the performance of the pr.

Social Justice Research, Vol. 17, No. 3, September 2004 ( C© 2004) Restorative Sentencing: Exploring the Views of the Public Julian V. Roberts1,3 and Loretta J. Stalans2 Within the past decade, restorative justice has emerged as a truly global phenomenon. Although retributive justice has dominated the penal landscape, more recently, restorative principles at sentencing have attracted increased attention. Restorative sentencing emphasizes the importance of compensation and reconciliation between victims and offenders and pays less attention to establishing proportionality between the seriousness of the offense and the severity of the sen- tence imposed. Although voluminous (and proliferating), the scholarly literature on restorative justice has to date neglected one critical issue: public opinion with respect to this justice paradigm. Public opinion researchers too, have generally overlooked this topic. The goal of this paper is to determine which elements of the new paradigm generate public approval, and which features are likely to encounter or provoke public opposition, drawing upon related international research published in English over the past 20 years (1982–2002). The review reveals widespread support for “restorative” sentencing options, such as community service, compensation, and restitution, particularly when applied to young offenders. However, it also seems clear that public support for these alternatives to punitive sentencing options declines as the seriousness of the offence increases, suggesting strong public adherence to the retributive principle of proportionality in sentencing. KEY WORDS: restorative justice; public opinion. Within the past decade, restorative justice has emerged as a truly global phenomenon. Restorative programs and policies have been created in most indus- trialized and many developing nations.

Defining terms such as “restorative justice” or “restorative sentencing” is not easy, as the initiatives encompassed by these terms vary widely across jurisdictions. Nevertheless, some defining characteristics are clear. In contrast to retributive justice, restorative justice stresses reconciliation between the offender, the victim, and the community to which both belong. At the stage of sentencing, restorative justice emphasizes the importance of responding to the needs of victims and encourages the offender to accept responsibility and express remorse.

Social Justice and Family Policy Dr. Williams Instructions for the Critical Essay Utilizing seven to ten outside scholarly sources students are to write critical essays (5-7 pages not including title and reference pages) documenting an essential issue with regard to the course’s influence on a policy. Students may also include official and organizational research reports as part of their allotted references too1. These essays are positional in nature (you’re arguing a stance using scholarly evidence), and will be written in an academic and scholarly tone. Arguments must be cogent, logical, and supported by facts (which will come from one’s research). APA citation and reference lists are required. These essays will be well proof-read before submission. Font: Times New Roman, 12. The essay should be double-spaced and numbered. Below are instructions regarding the format: 1. The assignment requires a traditional APA title page. Students may assign the essay its own title, be creative. Again, the title page and references are not counted in the page requirement. 2. The structure of the paper should be sectioned like such: a. Introduction b. The Policy (here you will provide an explanation/background of your chosen policy) c. Corresponding Issue #1 d. Corresponding Issue #2 e. Suggested Policy Change f. Conclusion g. References 3. The Introduction should provide a thorough roadmap of where you intend to take the reader; thus, here you want to establish a clear but brief outline of your policy of choice and the issues you plan to uncover—leave the rest for folks to see in the essay. This should be no more than a good thick paragraph. 4. The proceeding pages should be well structured by sections/headings which will correspond to remaining four points mentioned after the introduction. For example, for a policy one may choose sentencing, and then his/her two issues may be mass incarceration and reentry (you’d use those titles as the headings for your sections in the essay, or you can be more creative and call them something else, but the sections need to be distinct from each other). The information contained in each respective section will include a meshing together of your scholarly sources and your understanding of your chosen policy. This part of the essay will become more refined as one continue to engage in research. Remember, all points/arguments explained in these pages must be cited and backed by evidence. Your writing should be both informative and persuasive, which means you should be explaining to your reader the gist of the 1. These are the sources that will give one the statistics he/she would need to describe the scope of the problem/issue which will be covered in the essay. It is important that the essay has some stats in it to substantiate all arguments. For instance, for crime stats see .

SOCIAL JUSTICE AND SOCIOLOGY: AGENDAS FOR THE TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY JOE R, FEAGIN University of Florida The world's peoples face daunting challenges in the twenty-first century. While apologists herald the globaliza- tion of capitalism, many people on our planet experience recurring economic exploitation, immiseration, and environmental crises linked to capitalism's spread. Across the globe social movements continue to raise the issues of social justice and democracy. Given the new century's serious challenges, sociologists need to rediscover their roots in a sociology committed to social justice, to cultivate and extend the long- standing "countersystem" approach to research, to encourage greater self-reflection in sociological analysis, and to re-emphasize the importance ofthe teaching of sociology. Finally, more sociologists should examine the big social questions of this century, including the issues of economic exploitation, social oppression, and the looming environmental crises. And, clearly, more sociologists should engage in the study of alternative social futures, including those of more just and egalitarian societies. Sociologists need to think deeply and imaginatively about sustainable social futures and to aid in building better human societies. WE STAND today at the beginning ofa challenging new century. Like ASA Presidents before me, I am conscious of the honor and the responsibility that this address carries with it, and I feel a special obligation to speak about the role of sociology and sociologists in the twenty-first century. As we look forward, let me quote W. E. B. Du Bois, a pathbreaking U.S. sociologist. In his last autobiographical statement, Du Bois (1968) wrote: Direct correspondence to Joe R. Feagin, De- partment of Sociology, Box 117330, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL 32611, (feagin® ufl.edu). I would like to thank the numerous col- leagues who made helpful comments on various drafts of this presidential address. Among these were Hernan Vera, Sidney Willhelm, Bernice McNair Barnett, Gideon Sjoherg, Anne Rawls, Mary Jo Deegan, Michael R. Hill, Patricia Lengermann, Jill Niebrugge-Brantley, Tony Orum, William A. Smith, Ben Agger, Karen Pyke, and Leslie Houts. [TJoday the contradictions of American civi- lization are tremendous.

The Capability Approach and the Right to Education for Persons with Disabilities Andrea Broderick Department of International and European Law, Maastricht University, 6211 LH Maastricht, The Netherlands; E-Mail: [email protected] Submitted: 29 September 2017 | Accepted: 27 December 2017 | Published: 26 March 2018 Abstract The right to education is indispensable in unlocking other substantive human rights and in ensuring full and equal participation of persons with disabilities in mainstream society. The cornerstone of Article 24 of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities seeks to ensure access to inclusive education for persons with disabilities on an equal basis with others as well as the full development of human potential. Since the adoption of the Convention, there has been much theorising about inclusive education; however, there has been little focus on the meaning of equality in the context of the right to education for persons with disabilities. The capability approach, developed by Amartya Sen and further refined by Martha Nussbaum, focuses on ensuring equality and developing human potential. It is often viewed as a tool that can be used to overcome the limitations of traditional equality assessments in the educational sphere, which only measure resources and outcomes. This article explores whether the capability approach can offer new insights into the vision of educational equality contained in the Convention and how that vision can be implemented at the national level.

Introduction The question ‘equality of what?’ is often posed during debates on political philosophy and interdisciplinary debates on distributive justice. It concerns a decision as to the elements which governmental policies and institu- tional structures should aim to equalise. The same question was posed by economist-philosopher Amartya Sen, who first introduced his theory of ‘basic capability equality’ in his Tanner Lectures (Sen, 1979, p. 218): I believe what is at issue is the interpretation of needs in the form of basic capabilities. This interpretation of needs and interests is often implicit in the demand for equality. This type of equality I shall call “basic capability equality”. The capability approach encompasses a ‘partial theory of social justice’ (Nussbaum, 2009, p. 232) and a norma- tive framework for the asse.

Social History of Sports in the U.S. This course is entirely on.docx

Social History of Sports in the U.S. This course is entirely on-line, so all information can be obtained through the Blackboard site, or by e-mailing Bill Offutt directly at [email protected] or [email protected] NOTE: Because this course is extremely condensed into 40 days, I will be posting much of the material ahead of when it is due, for students to work through at their own pace; in other words, you can work ahead as you feel like it. There are certain pieces of material, from Unit Two forward, that will be added to both the Course Documents , where the assigned readings are, and Discussion Board , where focused questions and material will guide your responses. The materials will be added in time for use by the various intermediate deadlines. However, there are particular deadlines for completion of the discussion writing on the various units of material as well as the two papers that make up the grade, and students must pay close attention to these deadlines in order to complete the course. Course Goals: This course will examine the experience of sports and leisure for different groups of Americans (e.g., African-Americans, women, working class), from colonial times to the present but primarily focused on the 20th century. My goal is to introduce students to historical analysis and argument through the examination of the sports and leisure time activities that won increasing popularity among Americans from the late nineteenth to the late twentieth century. This course will incorporate analytical categories from social history (class, race, gender, ethnicity) as well as the frameworks used by cultural, economic, and political history. This course will thus involve students in gaining a better understanding of the relationships that sports and leisure have with the social, economic, cultural and political forces at work in the United States and the world. Students will appreciate the issues that have affected sports participation over the years, including racial and gender discrimination, class economics, and commercialization. Students are expected to learn not only the basic data of American social history of sports but also to express that knowledge in oral and written argument that employs evidence to prove historical theses. Precise assignments for discussion are given at the end of this syllabus. Students will also be expected to use the Blackboard site for discussion. This course is thus NOT about player statistics, won-loss records, and/or fantasy leagues. It is about understanding the role sports has played in American society over time, and that is a serious historical inquiry.

Social Forces, Gangs, and Crime - Part 1 The focus of this assignment is on social process theory: the socialized to crime perspective on criminality. Social learning, social control, and social reaction (labeling) theories view crime as a function of people's interactions with various organizations, institutions, and processes in society.

According to this theory, all people regardless of race, class, or gender have the potential to become delinquents and/or criminals. Complete the following: Select a gang or group within a large urban area or city. Explore the burdens of social class, poverty, racism, poor schools, and dysfunctional families, and the possible impact of these social forces on criminality in such a setting. Explain how these negative social forces might be counteracted by positive peer relations, a supportive family, educational success, and structured religious beliefs using social and criminal justice initiatives.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdf

kaushalkr1407

The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence. The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth. Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration. The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority. Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages. Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Operation Blue Star - Saka Neela Tara

Balvir Singh

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup. The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
