Collaborative Governance on Police Abolition: Minneapolis, Minnesota

Collaborative Governance on Police Abolition: Minneapolis, Minnesota

PPD Team Presentation – Collaborative Governance as it Relates to Police Abolition

1. I need you to create another presentation just like the one you did before regarding the 1. Shui-Yan Tang and Daniel A. Mazmanian (2010) “Understanding Collaborative Governance from the Structural Choice Politics, IAD, and Transaction Cost Perspectives,” Working Paper.

2. However, the professor did not like the collaborative governance example for Newport Beach and instead wants it to be on collaborative governance as it relates to the Police Abolition situation in Minneapolis.

3. Attached you can find all the required guidelines for the submission, but I also need to you address these specific topics thoroughly and clearly.

– Address the ideas of collaborative governance, IAD framework, structural choice politics, cartels, transaction cost analysis as the key ideas of the presentation, as it relates to the Police Abolition movement in Minneapolis.

– A huge point for this is that we need to address the role of non-profits. For example look into how one of the nonprofits mentioned in the articles I provided you with is trying to implement change in policy or defunding. Try to make the presentation about exploring the concepts and key ideas mentioned above and applying them to more specific institutions working on the idea of defunding/police abolition on a smaller scale.

4. When linking the reading to the specific policy issue or public organization you choose, you should keep the following in mind:

a. What key facets of the policy issues or public organization connect to the reading?

b. How does theory come to life in the policy issues or public organization you have chosen?

c. How can this policy issue or public organization help us learn the 3 to 5 key ideas from the reading you have identified?

d. Are there any gaps, inaccuracies, or other problems you see in the reading? Is this reflected in the real-world context you have chosen to examine?

5. When developing your 5 to 7 key ideas from the reading and how they link to your specific policy issue or public organization, remember to avoid making your presentation a mechanical summary of the reading. The goal of this exercise is to build your critical thinking skills and to develop you understanding of how theory connects to the real world. You should make attempts at novel insights and aim to join theory to practice. You MUST have a 3-10 PowerPoint slides to accompany your presentation.

6. After presenting your 5 to 7 key ideas and how they connect to the policy issue or public organization you have chosen, the team should raise 1 to 2 questions for class discussion. You are encouraged to use creative ways to organize the discussion around your key ideas and related real-world application.

7. Include a related video (3 min or less) from a news organization, think tank, or other credible source that relates to your presentation.

8. The evaluation of presentation will be based on the following criteria:

a. Thoughtfulness: creativity, insights, etc. (the key is to go beyond any mechanical summary) (5 points)

b. Delivery, i.e., whether each team member explain the ideas clearly and effectively; whether presentation guidelines are followed (5 points)

c. Quality of the discussion questions, and whether they trigger fruitful discussion (5 points).
