SOCIOLOGY OF THE ENVIRONMENT – RESEARCH PAPER The purpose of the research paper is for you to apply course concepts to a socio/environmental issue of your choice and to address the social causes, consequences, and responses to it. What follows is a general format to assist you in organizing your paper. You may propose an alternative structure for the paper and/or a different way of asking a research question within the content area of environmental sociology. 1. Problem statement: The problem statement includes a description of the social/environmental issue including evidence that a problem exists, and a brief history of the issue. The issue may be a local, national, or international concern. Answer the questions: What is the problem? What evidence exists to suggest it is a problem? How did it become a problem? What other problems is it like? 2. Competing explanations of the causes: The second section of the research paper analyzes the social/environmental issue from different perspectives. What are the various factors that are believed to have caused this problem? Who thinks there is/isn’t a problem and why? Use evidence from the popular press, course materials, and academic books and journals. Which causes seems most likely given the evidence? Is the cause grounded in local or global social processes or both? 3. Social Consequences: What are the outcomes of this problem? How does it impact humans? Relationships among humans? For example, does it lead to more or less stratification? Does it affect all groups equally? 4. Responses: How have groups organized to address the problem (if they have)? Why haven’t they (if they haven’t)? What solutions do the groups pose and/or implement? What do each of the groups believe is the best response to the problem? Assess the costs and benefits of each of the solutions. How are these distributed socially? In other words, who benefits and who pays for each of the options? What will be lost and what will be gained by the various options? How likely is it that each of the solutions will be implemented? What alliances can be formed around the various solutions? What groups will resist this type of change? Which option would you argue for? Explain your response. Has the sociological imagination been used to address this issue? 5. Conclusion: what does your case tell us about other socio/environmental problems and other cases?
