For this Discussion, you will evaluate the purpose statements in assigned journal articles in your discipline and consider the alignment of theory, problem, and purpose. You will also explain your position on the relationship between research and social change.

Alignment means that a research study possesses clear and logical connections among all of its various components. To achieve these connections, researchers must carefully craft the components of their study such that when they are viewed together, there is a coherent interrelationship.

As you read the authors’ purpose statements, consider how well the intent of the study, and its connection to the problem and theoretical framework, is presented. Also consider if the purpose statement reveals the study’s potential for engendering positive social change.

As you know, social change is a distinguishing feature of Walden University’s mission. Positive social change implies a transformation that results in positive outcomes. This can happen at many levels (e.g., individual, family systems, neighborhoods, organizations, nationally and globally); and positive social change can occur at different rates: slow and gradual or fast and radical.

With these thoughts in mind, refer to the Journal Articles document for your assigned articles for this Discussion.

By Day 4

Post a critique of the research study in which you:

  • Evaluate the purpose statement.The Purpose Statement Checklist serves as a guide for your evaluation. Please do not respond to the checklist in a Yes/No format in writing your Discussion post.
  • Analyze alignment among the theory, research problem, and purpose.
  • Explain your position on the relationship between research and social change.

Answer the following question in 500 words.

“World Order has been dissolved and re-established many times. Is the present World Order sustainable?”

extensive informed views but not research papers. An informed view differs from an opinion in that it relies on views that have preceded its quest. A view becomes ‘informed’ when it incorporates into its argumentation process the views of others. An essay begins by describing the issue of its concern. It continues by stating what others have written or said about that particular issue of concern. It concludes by proposing an original or unique idea on the matter and by building an argument in support of that idea.

Compose a 500 words essay on Media and Crime LogEntry I. Needs to be plagiarism free!

According to the news, it is one among the many shootout cases in the U.S and is one among the increasing incidents’ of attack on Sikh people. Thus, the first feeling developed by the news is that there are shootout cases on a regular basis in the U.S. Also, a police official claims that the more information our law enforcement agencies have on violence against Sikh Americans, the more they can do to help prevent such crimes. This develops the feeling that the U.S law enforcement agencies are somewhat helpless in helping such communities when it comes to hate crimes.

Here, it seems that the Behavioral Theory of crime is highly applicable. It is seen that the issue is a hate crime. Evidently, the culprit, a white man, has gained that violent tendency not genetically but through life experiences. According to the theory, a person undergoes behavior modeling through the interaction with family members, environmental experiences, and even mass media influence. Secondly, one can see that trait theories too can be applied in this case. The person is evidently an antisocial personality who is characterized by impulsivity, hostility, aggressiveness, lack for concern for others and lack of emotional depth.

Another important report is seen in USA Today. The report named ‘Along highways, signs of serial killings’ is prepared by Blake Morison (2010). According to the report, there were 459 deaths and nearly 41 attempted homicides committed by serial killers along the national highways in the U.S. As one reads ahead, the report says” They are out there.” It seems that the report is interested in creating a picture that that is frightening. In addition, the report claims that according to FBI, it is necessary to ‘look back and try to figure out’ who is behind the killings. Once again, it becomes clear that the criminal justice system is portrayed incapable to effectively manage the situation.

over the two years since the passage of enabling legislation, covered bonds have proven to be a useful source of funding for Australian banks. About 57$ billion has been raised, predominantly in offshore market. This represent just over one-quarter of the banks “long-term debt issuance over this period, although the pattern of issuance has evolved with financial market conditions. In particular covered bond has proven useful as a wholesale funding source that is less sensitive to global risk events than traditional unsecured funding. this was evident in the banks issuance of predominantly covered bond in early 2012 as condition in funding market deteriorated becuase of sovereign debt concerns, particularly in Europe.

Around that time, the Reserve bank noted that the delineation between secured and unsecured funding for the banking system was perhaps not as stark as market condition implied. As it turned out, conditions in global unsecured markets improve from mid 2012, and Australian banks returned to what might be considered more typical pattern of issuance – raising the majority of their wholesale funding via unsecured bonds.4

Importantly covered bond have enabled banks to diversity their investor base and reduce their funding risk. Australian covered bond have consistently been rated AAA, which has allowed the bank to attract new funding from investor with AAA mandates. This may also have assisted those bank repurchasing their government-guaranteed debt, as the bank were able to offer investors an alternative AAA asset to invest in.

There is also some evidence of a broadening in banks investor base along the geographical dimension with regional central banks among the buyers of Australian banks covered bonds. European investors has also provided demand for these instrument, reflecting their familiarity with the asset class. This has contributed to the banks issuing wholesale debt across the broader range of currencies in the past two years, compared with their issuance patterns prior to the introduction of covered bonds.

Covered bond have also enable the banks to increase their tenor of thier issuance, which has helped to smooth the maturity profile of their outstanding debt. The banks have typically issued covered bonds at tenor of 5 to 10 years, compare with a norm of 3 to 5 years for their unsecured issuance. More strikingly, the banks has issued covered bonds at very long tenors, sometime exceeding 15 years

Discussion points

  • what is a covered bond ? explain the structure of covered bond and why banks may issue this type of debt security
  • within the context of Australian banks issuance of paper for wholesale funding, discuss why the issuance of covered bond versus the issuance of unsecured debt has varied as market conditions changed.
  • Notes in the discussion paper that covered bond have enabled bank to diversify further their investor base and extend the tenor of their issuance. What does this mean and why might it be important for the banks?
