Question

Module 4 Assignment – Researching Moral Panics

This week I would like you to research a moral panic not discussed in the readings or lecture. We live in a world of constant panic, so this should be pretty easy. This can be a 1-2 page essay, short video, classroom presentation, or creative work. 

I would like you to identify and deconstruct the panic of your choosing. So give an overview of it, identify any folk devils/moral entrepreneurs, and discuss why it started (and why it ended if relevant). I’d also like you to connect it to the larger social context of the time.
