University of Maryland Public Safety Paper
Description
Assignment Three
- In keeping with our learning outcomes and our recent readings, consider a contemporary force that appears likely to bear on the future development of the public safety discipline you¥ in or plan to pursue. Examples of such forces may be things like social forces, technological forces, or some other force poised to have a lasting impact on public safety.
- Write a 4ípage paper on the likely impact the force will have on Public Safety.
-
- Your paper must include the following:
- Introduction: To the extent that you can, describe how force came to develop in general and how it came to be a force likely to have lasting impact on public safety. Consider what has driven the development of the force.
- The current and projected long-term impact of the force on public safety.
- The impact of the force on the management of public safety.
- Conclusion
- Your paper must include the following:
Notes:
By way of an example, one might look at the adoption of the assembly line as the force that had a lasting impact on the auto industry. This is an example of a technology being adopted. You are encouraged to also consider another type of force such as a sociological force.

- Introduction:
- The merican system of production(interchangeability of parts) set the stage for the assembly line.
- Inability to keep up with consumer demand was at least partially what drove the adoption of the production line in the auto industry
- The modern assembly line is said to have been developed in the meatpacking industry and that its adoption by the auto industry revolutionize that industry (detailsn
- Current and projected impact:
- At the time, the short-term results were greater productivity. The long-term results were huge (you might only be able to offer evidenced based projections on your topic). From preparing the country for wartime production to expanding the spending power of factory workers thereby facilitating greater demand and production, the production line revolutionized the world.
- The impact on management
- The workforce changed from skilled craftsmen to performers of monotonous tasks
- Morale of current workforce declined
- A less skilled workforce was more expendable
- At the same time, the drudgery made turnover high. That coupled with high demand for the product increased demands for the unskilled workers and forced up pay.
- Management was able to exert greater control over the large unskilled workforce
- Production line was more dangerous than prior work environment
- Unionization became more prevalent
- The workforce changed from skilled craftsmen to performers of monotonous tasks
- Conclusion
- Introduction:
-
Note: Above is an example of a topic only, you will obviously be writing about public safety. Also, your paper will have in it, considerably more detail and will be written in a typical paragraph style/ not write an outline. Finally, in addition to management challenges like these, you should consider more modern management issues like liability, pensions, health care, workeràrights (disability, due process, equal protections etc.) as well as discipline specific management considerations like community relations, training, regulations, and licensures etc.
You should imagine this as a well written article for a trade journal. It should reflect your knowledge, education, and experience and your assertions should be supported by relevant academic research.
Your instructor will be looking for you to be as thorough as the topic requires and space allows (a topic too large for the space should be pared down). In addition, your instructor will expect well supported assertions, well reasoned predictions, and obvious use of critical thinking skills.
