provide a detailed analysis of : China’s recent trade retaliation

As with most other nations, Australia has evolved its trade policies over its history. Australia’s
‘tyranny of distance’ and reliance on maritime trade have always been a constraint upon the level of
trade conducted, but its vast resources have made it a major exporter of raw materials and agricultural
products. Free trade has been and will continue to be, a key driver of the country’s economic success.
Despite an increase in anti-globalisation sentiment over the past 5 years, Australia has continued to
seek friendly trade arrangements with willing parties. This has not always been ‘smooth sailing’.
You are required to provide a detailed analysis of :
China’s recent trade retaliation
Your analysis should include:
a brief historical summary of the issue
the current state of affairs
impacted industries and countries
a recommended course of action for the Australian government and other policymakers.
Your analysis needs to include research and referencing. You should have around five to ten references
in Swinburne Harvard style. Only peer-reviewed references such as journal articles, government
reports, business reports, and reputed media sources are acceptable. You can include graphs, tables
and imagery in your slide presentation.
Presentation resources
Your presentation should include approximately 10 slides plus a reference list and appendix if
required

With reference to the paper you have selected:

• identify and explain the ontological and epistemological assumptions which underpin the researchers’ choice of methodology*
• critique the effectiveness of the relationship between the philosophical positioning, the methodology chosen and the methods used for collecting and analysing data;
• identify and discuss the ethical challenges and issues raised in the paper and the extent to which these are considered satisfactorily.

Ontological and epistemological assumptions
This asks you to comment explicitly on ontological and epistemological assumptions. You may also want to discuss these (and the associated methodology) in terms of a particular paradigm.

methodology
This term refers to the approach taken to answering the research questions. This asks you to comment on the approach to research in terms of the kind of data involved; whether descriptive, explanatory or something else; the research design (e.g. case study, ethnography, grounded theory, phenomenological, basic interpretivist, action research, experiment, survey, mixed methods); approach to reasoning; the research participants and how they were selected; approach to analysis.

methods
This term refers to the specific data collection methods used so that the research questions can be answered.

Please ensure that you answer all 3 bullet points.

A rough guide would be to write approximately 500 words on point 1, 1000 words on point 2 and 500 words on point 3.

Students should submit an assignment that builds on their previous assignments and demonstrates progress based on feedback received (in particular, from the Sources of Knowledge assignment).

• Assignments should be written in English and they should be proofread carefully, checking for errors in spelling, grammar and punctuation.
• Include page numbers.
• Demonstrate an analytical perspective, including both positive aspects and areas of difficulty.
• Support your statements with references, examples and clear logical thought.
• Cite original sources – only in exceptional circumstances is it acceptable to reference an author citing another author.
Prior to submitting your assignment it may be helpful to ask yourself the following questions.
• Is my writing clear and easy to follow?
• Does my paper consider any ethical issues?
• Is my paper written in non-sexist and non-racist language?
• Does my paper sufficiently address the questions / issues in the assessment task?
• Are my conclusions and interpretations credible?
• Is my message clear and precise?
• Are my references timely and relevant?
• Have I included the most important references?

The word count does not include the reference list or self-assessment document. The assignment should be 2000 words (+ or – 10%). Longer assignments will be penalised on the basis of academic staff judgement.

How is synthesis different than summarizing? How does developing and employing the skill of synthesis improve the quality of the literature review? Explain.

Question 1

Some literature reviews read as “book reports” that simply provide a string of summaries of the articles reviewed. How is synthesis different than summarizing? How does developing and employing the skill of synthesis improve the quality of the literature review? Explain.

Question 2

Every household has a junk drawer (or some similar place) that serves as the “catch all” for items that have no designated place. Go to your junk drawer and randomly retrieve three items. Write a one-paragraph summary of each item separately. Then write a one-paragraph synthesis that compares and contrasts the three items. Post the three summaries and the single-paragraph synthesis of the summaries. What challenges did you experience in synthesizing the three objects? What questions do you have about synthesis techniques?

Describe how judges will be chosen for each court and must discuss how judicial and attorney ethical standards will be structured and enforced

Any images, charts, etc., used in the paper should be submitted as exhibits and are not included in the page count requirement.

Describe how you would communicate to Ashok and the rest of the team about Ashok’s injury

Several issues have arisen on the Global Treps Project. Ashok, your team member in India, broke his wrist playing tennis yesterday and cannot work on the project at all for three weeks. His work, which involves helping to edit the videos, starts in one week, so you need to reassign it to others.

Bobby suggests you use Kanban boards to list all of the tasks for editing the videos and to track where they are in the workflow. Bobby, a techie and not known for being a good communicator, is the only person who’s ever used Kanban boards. You have not yet broken down the tasks into much detail and need more information from Angela, the contractor in charge of creating the videos.

Alfreda is having difficulties communicating with her main contact in Ethiopia, Dr. B. He is very busy all the time and does not use texting, Alfreda’s preferred communications medium. He has also not communicated key information with students who could be candidates for their event, which is only a month away. Alfreda is not sure if he booked a room for the event yet.

Describe how you would communicate to Ashok and the rest of the team about Ashok’s injury. What actions would you take? What communications medium would you use with different stakeholders?
Prepare a partial communications management plan to address some of the challenges mentioned in Part 7 of the case.
Research free, online tools for using Kanban boards and choose one to use. Prepare a list of at least ten tasks that would be done in editing the videos and enter them into your tool of choice.
Write a one-page paper describing options for communicating with Dr. B. and making sure students at his university get information about your event

Was this conflict functional or dysfunctional?

For the Module 3 SLP you will be applying the concepts you learned in the background materials regarding conflict and negotiation to a situation from your own personal experiences. Carefully review the background materials regarding types of conflict, causes of conflict, negotiation stages, and conflict management styles. It is important to first understand these comments from the background readings before starting this assignment.

Once you have thoroughly reviewed the background materials, think of a situation in the workplace where a conflict erupted and management had to intervene and some type of negotiation was involved. Then write a three page paper addressing the following four questions, and make sure to cite at least one of the required background readings for each of your four answers :

Was this conflict functional or dysfunctional?
What was the cause of the conflict? Use the terms from the background materials in your answer—for example, was the conflict a result of interpersonal issues, a specific task involved, due to inter-organizational issues, etc.
Of the five approaches to conflict management outlined in Shearouse (2011) or Bauer and Erdogan (2011), which approach most closely describes the approach used by management to resolve this conflict?
Did the negotiations involve integrative or distributive bargaining? What stages of negotiation did management go through, and did these stages match the five stages discussed in Bauer and Erdogan (2011)?
