“Exploring China’s One-Child Policy: Origins, Impact, and Future Outlook” “China’s Changing Landscape: Exploring Economic, Social, and Environmental Issues”
GEOG 345 China
Research Project
Overview
This is an independent research project. You are supposed to select a geographic scope (e.g. a
region of China, a province, a city, or the whole country) and an issue that is of particular
importance to that region (and of interest to you). You are required to research the issue and write a
research paper of approximately 7-15 pages that discusses the nature, origin, and outlook for that
issue. You may consult the instructor for possible research topics or/and talk to a librarian for useful
academic references.
Objectives
The objectives of this research project are threefold: 1) to encourage you to explore, in some depth,
geographic issues in a region of China; 2) to help you develop some basic research skills (e.g. data
acquisition, library searching, etc.); 3) to help you develop your written communication skills.
Project Schedule
March 18 ~ May 8 – research topic sharing/discussion (You can receive extra credit by posting
your research topic on the Research Project forum by May 8.)
May 10 – research paper due. Please submit it on Canvas by 11:59 pm.
Worth
The research paper is worth 18% of your course grade.
What to include in your paper?
In your research paper you should firstly introduce the region of your study (e.g. where is it, what is
it like, who lives there, etc.) Then you need to analyze the nature of the issue, describe the research
data and methods (if any), characterize geographic patterns discovered, provide possible
explanations for the observed patterns, and discuss the future outlook or policy implication of the
issue. In other words, in addition to describing what the issue is, and what its impact is on the
region, you need to think about and discuss when and why the issue arose in the first place, and
what is likely to happen in the future (i.e. worsen or improve?).
2
You can find a short list of possible topics on pages 2-3, which you are free to do, but there are
hundreds of other possible issues as well.
Reference
You are required to consult sources such as books or journal articles. You should make reference to
at least one academic source other than the textbook. You must clearly cite any sources you use.
The referencing system you use is up to you (e.g. APA citation style or MLA citation style), but it
must be consistent, and the reader must be able to determine exactly where you got the material
from. Students may ask a librarian for useful academic sources (a 24/7 online reference assistance
service is available at: https://www.library.fullerton.edu/help/index.html).
Formatting Requirements
Your research paper should be of about 7-15 pages in length (including the title page and
bibliography). You may place all your tables and maps after the text and bibliography. If you have
multiple tables and/or maps, they should be clearly numbered (e.g. Table 1, Table 2, etc.). Your
paper should be typed and double-spaced in 12-point font with one-inch margins. You should
include a title page which clearly indicates the course code (GEOG 345), the title of your research
project, as well as your name and student ID.

The Impact of Neoliberalism on the Current Global Economy: A Reflection on the COVID-19 Pandemic Defining Neoliberalism (300 words max): Neoliberalism is an economic and political ideology that emerged in the late 20th
Over the course of the semester, you have been introduced to a number of concepts that geographers and other social scientists use to describe and analyze both historical and contemporary phenomena. For the final assignment of the course, you will write a concise reflection that considers the relevance of one or more of these concepts in relation to a current event of your choosing.
Begin by identifying a topic that interests you in the news, drawing from reporting and journalism in outlets like the New York Times, Financial Times, Al Jazeera, BBC, The Guardian, or Le Monde. This topic should be 1) ongoing, and 2) distinct from what you wrote about in your midterm or presented on in the second half of class. Spend some time reading about the topic and consulting additional sources as necessary.
At the end of each week’s lectures, I have included a slide identifying most of the key terms introduced. Some of these are very concrete (such as “Marshall Plan,” “Structural Adjustment,” or “redlining”), while others are more analytical (such as “core/periphery,” “neocolonialism,” “transition zone,” or “neoliberalism”). Select one or more of these terms—or another concept of your choosing, from the course’s lectures or readings—and explain how it is relevant for understanding the current event you have chosen, as well as how it could be revised in light of this event (to the extent you think appropriate).
If you are choosing a more historical/concrete term or concept from the class, account for how and why it causes/explains the event you are examining. If you are choosing a more analytical concept, explain how it applies in relation to the event, and whether there are aspects of the event that require the concept to be revised or rethought.
The reflection should be no more than 1000 words total. There are no required number of citations, but anything you do cite should be consistent and in a proper format (e.g. MLA, APA, Chicago). As you write, use the following structure, divided into separate headings:
Defining the concept(s) (300 words max): in your own words, explain the term or concept. What does it mean? What are its most salient features? In what context was it introduced and/or to what did it originally refer?
Introducing the event (300 words max): what is the event or issue you are considering? Where is it occurring and who does it involve? What are its immediate causes and what effects has it had?
Explaining the event (400 words max): how does the concept you have chosen explain or relate to the event in question? In what ways does the event represent an example or an outcome of the concept you have chosen, and in what ways does it break from, contradict, or require us to revise the concept?
