Conflict Management Styles, How can I practice this conflict management style?

One style of conflict management is not necessarily better than another; each style has pros and cons, and each can be useful depending on the situation. This assessment is intended to help you identify your typical response to conflict, with the goal that when you encounter future conflicts, you will be aware of not only your instinctive reaction, but also the pros and cons of that reaction for the specific situation. Furthermore, you will also be aware of the other styles of conflict management that you could draw on to resolve the situation, if one of the other styles is more appropriate for the current situation.

If Information is Food, How Healthy is Your Diet?

Consider how you have been answering questions of where you’ve looked for information in the past/where you will look for information this semester. Here, answer the question in one full paragraph. If someone else looked at your sources, what would he/she say about what information is important?

After you’ve answered that question, watch the video embedded below: JP Rangaswami: Information is food.

Answer the questions below in your second paragraph:

1) If information is food, what are you eating? Salad, tofu, quinoa, Twinkies, Red Bull?

2) Do you agree with Rangaswami’s assertion that information is essentially a consumption issue rather than a production issue? Why or why not?

Property Taxation in Ghana: Exploring the Potential for a Land Value Tax

The assignment explores the potential applicability of a potential land value tax as an alternative to the existing property tax system. In this document, you are required to provide a justification for this study. This means presenting an analysis of the existing system of property taxation, highlighting its failure to generate enough revenue for local governments, critiquing the method of valuation (replacement cost), its inability to capture land value given that it is taxed on improvements only, the public disdain towards the tax, how it encourages land speculation, how it does not encourage efficient development, and generally focusing on how it fails as a good/just tax. The justification should be strong enough to warrant the exploration of the applicability of a potential land value tax.

References must be as much as possible be recent, although older references are allowed
