Toronto ( gentrification as part of urban renewal strategies)..
Length: 8 pages double-spaced (excluding title page and bibliography page) Choose one of the following topics: 1. In recent years, many Toronto neighbourhoods have experienced gentrification as part of urban renewal strategies. Explain how lower income neighbourhoods in Toronto can be gentrified without displacing existing lower income residents? 2. In Toronto, it matters where you live. Explain why some suburban communities at the structural/macro level are disadvantaged in comparison to downtown Toronto communities. 3. Social regulation is an important form of social control in Toronto public spaces (ie parks). Discuss how and why many forms of social regulation negatively impact racial minorities. 4. In recent years, there is a greater emphasis on reclaiming Indigenous perspectives as part of waterfront development in Toronto. Explain why an analysis of colonialism is important to urban development. Research topic must be more narrowly focused into a specific argument or position based on one of these topics In order to receive a good grade on research paper, your analysis must examine structural/macro level issues (and not the experiences of specific individuals) in Toronto Your paper must include specific examples based on Toronto neighbourhoods, the experiences of specific social or immigrant groups, Toronto events, and/or government policies to support your argument or position. Examples should not be derived from your own personal observations. Instead, examples should originate from books, journals or media report and all sources, including examples, must be properly cited using APA style. Interviewing people is NOT an acceptable source. The discussion of examples should not be the main focus of your paper. It is important to consider relevant theories and to provide scholarly evidence for your argument or position Grading criteria for the paper: (30 point scale) 1. Content – (15 points) adequately addressing the topic with an emphasis on the sociological aspects (at the structural/macro level) of Toronto, critical analysis, and comparative analysis that considers the strengths and the weaknesses of the research sources in light of the paper’s main research argument. Avoid relying too heavily on summarizing your research sources or simply describing a problem. You must engage the sources and critically apply them to your argument
