1. As you have read, theory guides the conceptualization of the clients problem and how social workers assess and intervene relative to the problem. However, theory can also shape the self-reflective questions social workers ask themselves. Clients often come to social workers under stress or distress. This then affects how the social worker responds and thus the client-social worker relationship. As a result, Foley, Nash, and Munford (2009) employed attachment theory as a lens in which to view the reflective process itself and to gain greater understanding and empathy for what each social worker within each unique social work-client relationship can access of that relationship for reflection (pp. 44).

2. This week, you will apply attachment theory to the case study you chose in Week 2. In other words, your theoretical orientationor lensis attachment theory as you analyze the case study.

3. Submit a 1- to 2-page case write-up that addresses the following:

4. Summarize the assumptions of attachment theory in 2 to 3 sentences.
Identify the problem in your chosen case study to be worked on from an attachment theory perspective.
Explain how attachment theory defines and explains the cause of the problem in one to two sentences.
Develop two assessment questions that are guided by attachment theory that you would ask the client to understand how the stress or distress is affecting the client.
Discuss two interventions to address the problem. Remember, the theory should be driving the interventions. In other words, you would not identify systematic desensitization since this is not an intervention guided by attachment theory.
Formulate one self-reflective question that is influenced by attachment theory that you can ask yourself to gain greater empathy for what the client is experiencing.
Explain which outcomes you could measure to evaluate client progress based theory.

5. Be sure to:
Identify and correctly reference the case study you have chosen.
Use literature to support your claims.
Use APA formatting and style.
Remember to double-space your paper

Transparency in Markets and Society

Transparency in markets and society may seem intuitive, but it has only been until recently that firms have started to become more transparent with their financial records. It has become essential for both public and private entities to be more transparent with their financial records. Transparency also improves accountability and governance practices (Bourguignon & Yon, 2018), it has been found that gift granting in order to obtain business is less likely to happen in countries where financial reporting is greater than in countries where businesses are not required to be as transparent (Khalil et al., 2015). The fear of an external audit in a country where the possibility of sanction or litigation may be higher curbs the likelihood of bending the rules to obtain business.

Improving members perception that their views are being considered is also another benefit of financial transparency. Financial transparency reforms in France led to union members being more readily able to see where their dues were going. Union membership is not compulsory so having some transparency has encouraged unions to take their points of view into accounts when making decisions (Bourguignon & Yon, 2018). While the disclosure of union financial records is seen by many as political only and not particularly welcomed in some circles …the new visibility of accounting practices brought about by the transparency obligation has strengthened reputational risk… (Bourguignon & Yon, 2018, p. 436).

The role of transparency is greater when dealing with sovereign states. The problem with fiscal transparency where governments are concerned is the requirement for … more extensive reporting than in the corporate sector (Heald & Hodges, 2018, p. 797). While the reporting may be more intensive engendering the peoples trust through fiscal transparency and may also enable more consistent budgeting practices (Heald & Hodges, 2018).

An interesting research finding regarding the effect that transparency had on family owned firms, at least where Greek firms are concerned. The cost of capital of a family owned firm vs a public firm was only marginal. A family firm with less transparency is only marginally affected when obtaining capital as compared to a public entity (Bethani et al., 2019). It is also notable that the size of the firm plays a role in the cost of debt also, larger firms benefit from better borrowing terms in relation to smaller businesses, but this may have more to do with longer relationships with the financial institutions (Bethani et al., 2019).

Businesses are required to pay taxes, to this extent it is important that a firm has some degree of transparency in order to disclose that they are paying their fair share and ensure that the proper tax practices are being adhered to (Morton, 2019). Companies for the most part place a great significance on tax compliance (Morton, 2019). In order to achieve true transparency, it is important to take not of what is disclosed and what is withheld (Morton, 2019).

Further Exploration

One area which might warrant further study is how financial transparency and accounting standard setters interact (Heald & Hodges, 2018). The how and why those entities who set standards for accounting and financial transparency will enable others to interact more easily. Another area in need of closer consideration is the disparity between accounting and taxation (Morton, 2019, p. 29) enabling the conversation between tax transparency and tax policy (Morton, 2019). Further investigations might also research the likelihood and magnitude of a bribery vary following the adoption of financial reporting standards, and/or following a change in the litigation environment against audit firms (Khalil et al., 2015, p. 397). This will enable the analysis of the implications of the adoption of controls and the affect firms are willing to bribe officials. (Khalil et al., 2015, p. 397) Achievement of effective fiscal transparency will depend in part on the robustness and timeliness of the evidence that academics can provide (Heald & Hodges, 2018, p. 800).

Every Good Endeavor Reflection: Stakeholder Theory & Social Justice
Kellar (2014) states we must love our neighbor, but Christianity gives us very specific teachings about human nature and what makes human beings flourish. We must make sure that our work is done in line with these understandings. Faithful work, then, is to operate out of a Christian Worldview (p. 21).

The different Christian traditions give somewhat different answers of how we should go about the task of recapturing vocation. The streams are often confusing to Christians, for they are not perfectly complementary to one another (Kellar, 2014, p.21).

We are going to reflect on some of these sentiments that Kellar introduces in Every Good Endeavor.

The second sentiment we are going to look at is: The way to serve God at work is to further social justice in the world.

        Read Kellar (2014) Chapter 9: A New Story for Work

        Review the following article:

Freeman, R. (2004). Stakeholder theory and the corporate objective revisited. Organization Science, 15(3), 364-369.

What are your thoughts on stakeholder theory and Kellars writing? Are there similarities here and do you agree or disagree with this sentiment that the way to serve God at work is to further social justice in the world? Write a 250 to 500-word refection that incorporates the Freeman article.

The Electoral College was created to protect US citizens against mob rule. Mob rule is the control of a lawful government system by a mass of people through violence and intimidation. However, some Americans question the legitimacy of this process. Pick one election where the outcome of the popular vote and the electoral college vote differed to create an argument in favor of or opposed to the use of the electoral college. List at least three valid points to support your argument. Present your argument in a PowerPoint presentation.

Evaluation Essay Instructions

Choose an evaluation prompt from the Assignments page at the end of Ch.  11 (copied below) Topic should relate to something in the nursing or medical field.
Create specific criteria you will use to evaluate your subject.
Write a 2-3 page rough draft of your evaluation and upload it by due date.

Do not use other reviews as sources (no Yelp, Imdb, Rotten Tomatoes, or any source that already gives an evaluation or explanation of book or movie if you choose this) to support your review.
Evaluation Prompts:

Critical Assessment: Step into a controversy as boldly as Megan McArdle does in Serena Williams Is Not the Best Tennis Player (p. 123)and write a critique of some disputable claim within the public arena. You can address sports, as McArdle does, or look for a topic in other areas where evaluative claims are common and controversialpolitics, business, technology, arts, fashion, and so on. (If necessary, look to your Twitter feed for topic ideas.) Write an assessment strong enough to change someones mind.

Product Review: Choose an item that you own, buy, or use regularly, anything from a Coleman Lantern and Dunkin Donuts coffee to a Web site, phone app, or social network you couldnt live without. Then write a fully developed review, making sure to discuss your criteria of evaluation as thoroughly as Megan Giller does in Chocolate Experts Hate Mast Brothers (p. 137). Choose a specific audience if you want and be generous with the supporting details. Use graphics if appropriate.

Arts Review: Drawing on your experience with the arts, review a (medically based) movie, book, television series, work of art, or artist for a publication that you specifyprint or online. It can be as brief as Soup Martinezs review of Catcher in the Rye (p. 141). Perhaps write your review for a local or student publication. Or consider writing a substantive piece for an online site that takes reviewssuch as Amazon or IMDb.

Social Satire/Visual Argument: Take a critical look at some aspect of contemporary society the way Andy Singer does in his No Exit (p. 142). Use either prose or an image to critique a public policy, social movement, or cultural trend you believe deserves censure. But dont create an item that simply marks your subject as dangerous, pathetic, or unsuccessful. Instead, make people laugh at your target while perhaps offering a plausible alternative.

Your Choice: Evaluate a program or facility in some institution you know well (hospital, clinic, nursing home etc) that you believe works either especially efficiently or remarkably poorly. Prepare a presentation in the medium of your choice and imagine that your audience is an administrator with the power to reward or shut down the operation. (Ruszkiewicz, 20181022, p. 143)
