Adolescent to Parent Face Negotiation Regarding Depression

Adolescent to Parent Face Negotiation Regarding Depression

I. Rationale: In this section, let the reader know why you have chosen this area of study and why it is an important area for interpersonal communication scholars to study. Give the reader an idea of your general purpose. Develop a warrant (or argument) for studying what you chose.


Advance some hypotheses or pose a research question(s) which your scholarly review of literature will ultimately justify testing. End this section with your Research Question(s). 

II. Database & Key Words: Describe online databases you used to conduct your library research (i.e. discuss all on-line indexes searched and be specific, e.g., Communication Source, Psych Lit, etc.) and what key words you used. You may use scholarly journals, books, and book chapters, or internet-based sources for which you can demonstrate scholarly credibility.

III. Bibliography: Present a minimum of 20-25 relevant sources (articles, books, book chapters from anthologies). This bibliography list constitutes an argument that you did a thorough search and are presenting the most important, relevant, and central sources available out there. 

At least half of your sources must be data-based research reports. Focus your sources in communication as much as possible. References must be presented in correct APA 6th edition style with DOI number.

IV. Outline. Present a detailed outline of the major headings and topics that will appear in your Paper #2. 

V. Sample literature review pages. From the draft outline of your paper, turn in 2-3 pages of your written-up literature review prose; probably it will cover one of the topic areas. Start with a subheading. Within these pages be sure you are synthesizing (drawing together) the ideas from at least six sources. Treat them as a group of information rather than separate articles. 

Argue (for or against) UNCITRAL Model Law effectiveness in Cross Border Corporate Insolvency

Argue (for or against) UNCITRAL Model Law effectiveness in Cross Border Corporate Insolvency

Notes:

• You must demonstrate understanding of Australia Corporations Act s 581 and s 583, and draw comparison with UK s426 and US broad discretion.
• You must demonstrate high level understanding of Chapter 5 of Australia’s Cross-Border Insolvency Act (not 5.2, 5.4A) and s 601CL of the Corporations Act.
• You must incorporate these cases into your essay Alari [2018] FCA 1067, Edelsten [2016] FCA 1269, Zetta Jet [2018] FCAFC 132, Suk [2016] FCA 1404.
• You must demonstrate understanding of Part 4 of UNCITRAL Cross Border Insolvency Model Laws 2014. 
• You must demonstrate comprehension of recent and pending reforms in this area in the jurisdictions you chose, e.g. US (2018), Europe (2017 regulations), Singapore (17/18 reform) etc.
• You must use authoritative report when referencing cases. Mark will be deducted for each reference contradicting AGLC. Foreign laws and precedents must be in the correct AGLC reference.
Hint: 
• you start with by researching how US Chapter 11 (or other jurisdictions of your choice) differs from Australian corporate insolvency legislation, look at cases where Australian companies accessed US courts to protect assets from quick sale liquidation. What about Australian creditors seeking recovery in other jurisdictions? Which jurisdiction seeks to be “treaty-shoppers paradise”, and which jurisdiction seeks maximum protection for special classes of local creditors (e.g. employees and tax office priority as unsecured creditor), which jurisdiction seeks to encourage entrepreneurship and risk-taking. Chart UNCITRAL model law enactment against this spectrum. 
• Consider your argument on effectiveness – effective against what standard/measurement?
• Your argument may parallel the territorialism vs universalism vs modified universalism debate, but no mark is allocated for historical or theoretical research, mark is only given for arguments backed by cases.
• Remember if you deem the UNCITRAL model law not effective, you must give case evidence to show why European regulation on cross-border insolvency is more effective, theoretical and hypothetical discussions do not strengthen your argument.
