Task overview. You are required to submit a proposed

Task overview. You are required to submit a proposed topic for your class essay. The proposal has the following requirements:

1/ You must be addressing a business ethics issue – e.g. it should not be on a purely social issue such as abortion or same-sex marriage. However, it can consider the business implications – for example, ‘Should for-profit abortion clinics be permitted?’; or ‘Should businesses have the right to refuse service to same-sex couples?’ Your business ethics issue must be based on an online news media article which is less than three years old.

2/ Your topic should be controversial – i.e. the answer must not be obvious. We are aiming to develop an approach to explore complex topics in ACCG 848, and therefore there is no point in writing an essay about an issue where the moral answer is clear – e.g. companies polluting in contravention of the law; companies paying their employees less then the minimum wage in the country they are operating in etc.

3/ Your topic should be specific – i.e. “sweatshops”; “child labour”; “pollution” is much too broad. To be manageable you focus on a particular issue – e.g. “Should companies in the apparel industry be required to audit the wage and safety conditions of the employees of all of their suppliers”.

4/ You should be exploring a principle, which means you shouldn’t have a company name in the title. The topic needs to be framed more generally and the specific case is used just as an illustrative example. For example, in the Moriaty reading his question was ‘Do CEOs get pad too much’ and then he gave some examples, as opposed to ‘Does the CEO of Apple get paid too much’.

Your proposal should contain:

1. The proposed title for the essay, which should be of the form “Should . . .”

2. A link to an illustrative case, e.g. an online newspaper article (which should be from the past 3 years). This article should provide a good background to your proposed title and will ideally also provide one or more arguments for and/or against the topic.

3. Arguments for and against the case. The highest marks will be awarded to students who provide two strong arguments for the case and two strong arguments against. A superior understanding of the material will also be demonstrated by students who are able to correctly identify whether the arguments are primarily utilitarian (i.e. based on consequences) or Kantian (i.e. based on duties and rights).

References should be cited using the APA 6 style and a reference list provided at the end of your assignment

Word limit including references: 500 words

Controversy Associated With Dissociative Disorders

 Assignment: Controversy Associated With Dissociative Disorders The  DSM-5-TR  is a diagnostic tool. It has evolved over the decades, as have the classifications and criteria within its pages. It is used not just for diagnosis, however, but also for billing, access to services, and legal cases. Not all practitioners are in agreement with the content and structure of the  DSM-5-TR , and dissociative disorders are one such area. These disorders can be difficult to distinguish and diagnose. There is also controversy in the field over the legitimacy of certain dissociative disorders, such as dissociative identity disorder, which was formerly called multiple personality disorder. In this Assignment, you will examine the controversy surrounding dissociative disorders. You will also explore clinical, ethical, and legal considerations pertinent to working with patients with these disorders.
