Research Papers / Starting my euthanasia research paper and my topic? [5]

Hey!

I am doing a research paper on euthanasia for my sciology class.
I have to apply a sociological perspective to my topic.

I am planning to use the structural functionalist paradigm to do this.

But my question is, can i work the Jonestown suicide in with my topic,
or is that on a completley different level, that I should not include?

Essays / SPUTNIK! (Essay Perspective) [5]

Ok so heres the deal.

I have to write an essay comparing the press accounts of the launch of the sputnik with later literature.
We have to compare the change in perspective and why this change occured.

The headlines of 1957 seem to conceal the frightenment of the americans at the time.

Any ideas on how and why the perspective of the event occured?
