This 12 page paper consists of a prompt that I have attached below. You need to read specific chapters of a book.

I need help finding 10 good peer reviewed sources that can help my research question. Use google scholar to find them. Once you find the 10 just answer the file where it says week 6 annotated bibliography file. I will add the hypothesis I have and the Independent and dependent variable so you can answer the questions.

Semester Project Instructions

The American Revolution began as an argument over the meaning of the unwritten British constitution as applied to British North America. Rooted in the aftermath of the Seven Years’ War between Britain and France, this dispute pitted colonial politicians and legal thinkers against British authorities and their apologists. The Americans maintained that they were not represented in Parliament; therefore, Parliament could not act to bind free Englishmen residing in the American colonies. Only legislatures elected by the colonists and responsible to them could make laws for them and impose taxes on them. In this period, nobody thought of or admitted thinking of Independence (capitalized to denote a political concept). The years of argument and drama, however, inculcated among the American colonists the idea that they had much in common — that they ought to see themselves as one people with a common identity and a set of common interests overshadowing specific concerns. The arguments and rituals of revolution also set in motion the practice of building a national political framework and a national political community.

DUE DATE: WEEK 12 (You may submit it at any time up until the due date. The Semester Project Drop Box is in the Week 13 folder.)

Instructions: Read the Documents and Answer the Questions. This is not a typical “term paper.” You may use any format/style you like. Don’t wait until the last minute to start this project!

Answer ALL the questions in all three sections.

I. Declaration of Independence

The Declaration of Independence (1776)

1. What is the philosophical basis for declaring independence?

2. What are the political principles that the document establishes?

3. How would you characterize the specific grievances attributed to the King of England?

4. If the role of government is to establish order and the peaceful transference of power, would the principles established in this document support those goals?

5. The founders specifically identify “Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness” as three of the unalienable rights. What do you think they meant by these terms? Write one paragraph per term that defines the terms.

II. Constitution of the United States

The Constitution of the United States (1788)

1. What specific powers are granted to each branch of government?

2. Why did the Founding Fathers arrange the government in such a fashion?

3. Which political actor—the federal government, the state governments or the people—controls the political life of the country?

4. Pick one of the reasons given in the preamble for establishing the Constitution and in 1-2 paragraphs explain what you think it means. Be specific!

III. The Bill of Rights

The Bill of Rights (1791)

1. Why was the Bill of Rights included?

2. Select one of the original ten amendments and in 1-2 paragraphs explain what the framers meant by it, and what meaning it has today.

Supplementary Material

This is a project and it’s broken into 5 parts the who, what, when, where, and how. My part is the WHERE and I have to do 3 slides max

STATE COURT JUDICIARY BRANCH GROUP PROJECT INSTRUCTIONS / RUBRIC

For this project, I want you to take a look at the actual website of the North Carolina Courts system, which is one of the several things included in this prior Module of materials:

https://www.nccourts.gov/

https://www.nccourts.gov/courts

https://www.nccourts.gov/learn

Your task for this group project is to prepare a powerpoint presentation AS IF YOU WERE GOING TO PRESENT IT (but there is no need to coordinate an actual video amongst your group members, that would take a LOT of logistical effort!) to a small group of uncc students who are NOT familiar with the North Carolina courts! This means that your project which is LIMITED TO NO MORE THAN 15 SLIDES should cover the basics of the Court System as far as its different parts (maybe a little history), some information about how it works (numbers or statistics on cases heard, etc.,), the participants (different offices or divisions) within it, the types of cases heard and in which courts, and some interesting facts you find (whether about cases, or participants in the process, whatever you find that stands out to you as interesting to your audience perhaps). If you notice carefully, there are five main topics, and five group members…almost as if you could divide the work topically if you wished to do so…

The only other requirements are (1) a works cited slide at the end, and (2) a final slide with your best effort to create a group photo op with all your individual group members pictures on it! Of course this does not mean you meet in person; you just need to have your best artist make a collective collage of your group members!

This final project should assess my ability to design and articulate a methodologically sound research study in public/nonprofit administration. The work should demonstrate mastery of core research design principles, including conceptualization, theory building, hypothesis development, measurement, sampling, and analytic strategy.

Empirical Research Paper

Conduct an original, smallscale empirical analysis using publicly available data (e.g., U.S. Census data, election returns, administrative datasets, legislative behavior data). Your analysis must be methodologically appropriate, clearly linked to your research question, and grounded in relevant theory.

Required Components

1.Introduction

• Clear, concise statement of the research question.
• Explanation of the questions scholarly and practical significance within public/nonprofit administration.
• Brief overview of the puzzle, problem, or gap motivating the study.

2.Literature Review

• Synthesisnot a listof the most relevant scholarly debates, theories, and empirical findings.
• Identification of conceptual, theoretical, or empirical gaps your project addresses.
• Clear articulation of how your study contributes to or extends existing research.

3.Theory and Hypotheses

• Explanation of the theoretical logic underlying your research question.
• Development of a coherent conceptual framework that links independent and dependent variables.
• Statement of testable hypotheses (for quantitative work) or guiding propositions/expectations (for qualitative or mixedmethods work).
• Discussion of alternative explanations where appropriate.

4.Research Design

• Justification of your methodological approach (qualitative, quantitative, or mixed).
• Operational definitions of all key concepts and variables, including measurement strategies and potential limitations.
• Sampling strategy and case selection rationale (e.g., population, sampling frame, selection criteria).
• Discussion of validity and reliability concerns relevant to your design.

5.Data and Analysis

• Description of the dataset, variables, and analytic procedures used.
• Presentation of results using appropriate tables, figures, or qualitative evidence.
• Interpretation of findings in relation to your hypotheses and theoretical expectations.

6.Conclusion

• Summary of key findings (empirical papers) or expected contributions (proposals).
• Discussion of limitations, threats to inference, and methodological or theoretical constraints.
• Suggestions for future research, policy implications, or avenues for further inquiry.

7.References

• Minimum of 15 scholarly sources (peerreviewed journal articles, academic books, or highquality research reports). At least 70% must be from public/nonprofit administration-focused sources.
• Proper citation in APA style.

Evaluation Criteria

The project will be assessed to the extent to which it demonstrates:

• Conceptual clarity and precision in defining the research question.
• Depth and synthesis in the literature review.
• Strength and coherence of the theoretical framework.
• Appropriateness and rigor of the research design.
• Quality and accuracy of empirical analysis (if applicable).
• Clear, persuasive academic writing and organization.
• Proper citation and engagement with scholarly sources.

For this assignment you need to connect and improve the part I wrote and expand on it. Based on the requirement written in Section 5. There is an example down below. My topic is Tulip Commodity Chain and the section bein written is about sustability and interventions. Use the sources listed below in the section that I wrote as they are mandotary to use. I also put another sources you have to use below. Dont forget to connect it to circular economy.

This is the part that I wrote:

The tulip supply chain serves as an excellent example of an intricate relationship between sustainability and capitalism, which also shows the challenges and opportunities for creating a more responsible supply chain. Based on Tsings ( 2015) analysis of salvage accumulation, we discuss how the tulip industry exemplifies the entanglement of ecological sustainability with capitalist formations. Tsing the commodification of nature produces excess destruction, such as in the tulip supply chain where production is so excessive and markets so volatile that great quantities become waste. Flower her insights challenge us to think again about how we value flowers as commodities and in a wider ecological and social context.Furthermore, the governance approach of Kalfagianni and Pattberg (2013) which is, a key instrument for advancing sustainability in its own right, is also relevant in this context of the tulip supply chain. They stress the need for better stakeholder participation in the governance of function. In the tulip world, growers, distributors and consumers must come together to develop sustainable solutions to concerns about pesticide use, water usage and labor standards. The parties concerned can develop mutually beneficial processes which significantly reduce the ecological costs and at the same time provide enough opportunities for the economy of production. A synthesis of Tsings and Kalfagianni & Pattbergs perspectives demonstrates that the path toward sustainability in the tulip supply chain is complex and multifarious. This means accounting for the social-ecological impacts of production and for establishing collaborative governance arrangements that facilitate sustainable practices leading to a more accountable, and resilient floral industry.

essay of three thousand words. This is a target for length. Your essay may be longer or shorter; it is graded on how effectively it uses the assigned readings to answer the prompt You must use information and ideas from the readings and must supply references with the page number where you have found that information or idea. You must submit a file in pdf format. Your file must be single-spaced to make your essay easier to read online; here is the prompt: How has colonialism caused Democracy? Plagiarism: Do not plagiarize or violate the rules concerning multiple submission. I will explain more about this topic in the introductory lecture. Normally plagiarism can be avoided by inserting quotation marks around any material copied from another source and providing a reference. Your essay for this class may not use any quotations. You must paraphrase by rewriting everything in your own words. Since you must take information from the assigned readings, you must provide references. Dont worry if what you write does not say exactly what the original said. Since meaning varies with wording and sentence structure, a rewrite always changes meaning at least slightly. Let your version be a reasonable version of the original.
