Research Paper

notes from March 31

All we need to do with this paper is explore the topic, not actually answer it. With references, we can pick up ideas as if they were tangible objects. We can use these sources however we want.
Subtopics. Godzilla can represent American Occupation, or juvenile violence, or japanese reimergence and revival. Think of all resources that address the theme. 'Institutional Change' will be a good avenue for me to explore. Focus on the concept.
Have you understood me?
Perhaps. I've decided to drop my first article on the physiological effects of strenous military training. I've already discussed in detail the detriments of punishment. This paper will focus on exploring how to change the military training culture. I think I'll use the first metaphor: The Sweet Hell Inside, How to heal hundreds of thousands of wounds simultaneously, a quest for reform and restructure in the United States Military, with an emphasis on the army.
This will be good. I'll perhaps use the book, The Sweet Hell Inside, which addresses slavery, as a source. How does the dance change? Maybe I could use the change of a family dance to illustrate on a small scale what I am proposing. Perhaps. So....
My next course of action is....
1. The Article I already have.
2. The Sweet Hell Inside
3. Changing the family dance.
4. Look into 'institutional change' on Google or on Ebsco and/or the library. (I hope this yields four sources, if not, my life is over.
