Choose two of the following topics and construct an essay on each (two essays in total). You must use proper essay format (introduction, body, and conclusion when you can). However, due

to the nature of this exam you will not necessarily be graded on spelling, punctuation, or sentence structure. That said, the answers need to be at least a little bit legible as I cannot grade what I cannot read. All information including examples must be from course materials (lectures, videos, and all other resources given). Each essay will be equally weighted at 10 marks each (20 marks in total). 1. Outline and explore how poverty is understood and measured in Canada. What are the benefits and drawbacks of how this is done? Give examples. 2. It can be argued that racism may be a product of our Justice system. Explore and explain what this means in detail. Give examples. 3. Define and outline the major theories discussed, including pros and cons. Give examples. 4. What are the "social problems" that poverty can exacerbate? Give examples.
