Parable paper: analysea a narrative or visual cliché in advertising

 
parable paper assignment:

Drawing on Roland Marchand’s text “The Great Parables,” you are to identify a narrative or visual cliché in advertising from a single decade between 1900-1990, and to analyze it as a ‘parable’ along the lines established by Marchand. You need to go beyond simply identifying the parable or narrative; you are expected to analyse its larger meaning in relation to its historical period.

**Your parable must NOT be one of those discussed by Marchand: you are expected to identify and develop your own parable***

In choosing your 2-3 examples of ads, you will likely want to consult the book series All-American Ads (Taschen books), on reserve at the OCAD library. These include a wide range of print advertisements, and are helpfully separated by decade.*You must indicate a source for your ad examples (where you found them); if you are including a tv/online clip in your examples, please provide a URL so that I can access the ad.

In an essay of approximately 5-6 double-spaced typed pages, you will:

Identify and describe your chosen ‘parable’ or ‘visual cliché’;
Analyse 2-3 ads from your chosen decade in terms of how they express this parable;
Give some historical context/background through which we can understand the power of this parable at the time;
Briefly discuss the significance and contemporary life of this parable. Is it still with us? Does it take a different form today? Why?
Your project should be accompanied by reproductions (black and white photocopies are okay) of your chosen advertisements (these are not included in page length).

You must properly reference any sources quoted, paraphrased or otherwise utilised in your writing.

clean power plan

 
In reference to cost-benefit analysis, Peters states the following. “Cost-benefit analysis has been referred to as ‘nonsense on stilts.’ This rather rude description implies that there are so many assumptions involved in the calculations, and so many imponderables about the future effects of projects, that cost-benefit analysis is the functional equivalent of witchcraft in the public sector. Although phrased in exaggerated language, this criticism is to some degree well taken. It is difficult, if not impossible, to know the value of eliminating an externality, just as it is difficult to know just how much life, health, and snail darters are worth economically (Peters, 2010, p. 457).”

As such, your assignment is to do some outside research on the policy area you have chosen for your final project. You may find actual information in the Policy Agendas Project  but if not, you will need to do a little extra research (which can be incorporated into the final paper). Apply critical thinking skills to address the following questions:

Explain why the cost-benefit analysis process in your policy area. Can it be described as an attempt to employ rational decision-making processes?
How is your policy budgeted? How much is being authorized and spent? Note: You can use the policy agendas data here, particularly the graphing, and ask for budget figures. What arguments are used to make it politically accepted as a budgetary expense? How have political debates over budgeting in your area played out? That is, what are the arguments for increasing and/or decreasing the amount allocated and spent?
In the lesson material, the cost-benefit analysis procedure is described as being composed of 4 basic concepts: 1) Determining costs and benefits; 2) assigning value; 3) discounting; and 4) Choosing among alternatives. Earlier in this course, you identified various alternatives in the policy process related to your policy choice (this was explicit or implicit in the agenda setting phase). Choose any two of them and perform a cost-benefit analysis on the two (if you can identify the two most likely scenarios, i.e. the one that was finally passed and the one that was its most closely contested alternative, do it on these alternatives).
Finally, what else could be provided to the policy-makers and the general public to enhance the quality of their policy selection as it specifically relates to your policy choice?

Making up by writer according to the answer For your coursework, you asked to finish a essay in following areas,

 

a brief contextualization of the topic from the literature (e.g., marketing ethics, consumer behaviour, marketing entry strategies, etc.),
a critical discussion of the different positions based on the contextualization, and
a concluding statement and outlook derived from your discussion
The task is:
The suggestion that organizations should focus on the needs and wants of their customers – and of consumers more generally – may be thought of as one of marketing’s more prominent achievements. Critically discuss this notion by making particular reference to some of the strategic challenges potentially arising from an organization (a) not focusing sufficiently on consumer needs, or (b) placing a strong emphasis on the current needs of consumers.

Whichever approach you take, you must focus appropriately and with enough detail to show you understand the context (and the relevant literature) properly.

You must explain why you are addressing the question you way you are answering it to make yourself clear.

Final Test

 
Once a society is so organized that medicine can transform people into patients because they are unborn, new born, menopausal, or at some other “age of risk”, the population inevitably loses some of its autonomy to its healers. The ritualization of stages in life is nothing new; what is new is their intense medicalization (Illich, 1979, p.78).
Assess this claim by Illich in relation to the role blockbuster drugs played in medicine during the 20th Century including if there can be any key similarities or differences drawn from the various life cycles of these drugs?
