| Industrial Relation (Essay) (Use peer-refereed academic work)
• Identify at least two strategies for union renewal in a climate of union decline. How effective are each of these theories in increasing union membership and activism?
• The essay must be correctly structured with a proper introduction (where you address the question, your stance on it, key definitions and outline the structure of the paper), body (where you address one point per paragraph using evidence), and a conclusion (where you reiterate the argument).
• In academic writing you are expected to meet certain standards with regards to the level of analysis and provide evidence to support points made in developing a line of reasoning and analysis. Discussion should be based on sound research findings and expert observation and comment. The quality of your writing is determined by the credibility and authority of the sources you cite/reference.
