Discussion Post
For this discussion, you will share your analysis of research presented by Richard Wilkinson. In this video, he discusses the impacts of economic disparity. Watch the video carefully to define the problem that Wilkinson describes. Then peel apart the research areas that are used to form Wilkinson's study.
Try to build an appreciation for the diversity of different forms of knowledge. You will also experiment with forming a critical question about research.
Watch the Ted Talk video: "How economic inequality harms societies" by Richard Wilkinson.
Answer the following questions:
o Identify two or three different disciplinary lines of research that were used to study the connections between income inequality and other forms of social disparity?
o Are you critical of any of the data and its use in the comparisons that Wilkinson makes? Explain how more explanation or deeper understanding of the research may lead to a different understanding of the correlations in Wilkinson's presentation.
The response should include a reference list. Double-space, using Times New Roman 12 pnt font, one-inch margins, and APA style of writing and citations.
