Politics Mini Project

Unit V Mini Project

A privately owned island off the coast of Florida has been left to you by the eccentric owner who passed away recently.The island is large enough for several small communities to be developed, so you want to start off on the right foot by

establishing a local government, a judicial system, and a law enforcement system. The only stipulation is that you cannotbe dictator of the island.For the Unit V Mini Project, you will describe the following points:

 

the type of local government you would establish (e.g., county, city),

 

the form of that government (e.g., township, municipal charter),

 

the management system (e.g., commission, mayor,council),

 

how leadership positions would be instated(e.g., appointment, election)

 

the type of law enforcement and judicial system you would put into place

and

 

your rehabilitation system for any criminal offender.

 

You can mix and match your government,judicial, and law-enforcement decisions, but you must fully explain the reasonswhy you chose the types of systems.

 

Your mini project must be at least
three full pages in length, not including your title page and reference page, if youchoose to use references. Outside sources are not a requirement, but if you choose to use them, they must be cited and

referenced accordingly.
