text: i need ideas for a reserch paper to write a proposal argument. can anyone help me? i need a topic: problem and possible solutions to write a proposal argument in which you describe social, economic, environmental, cultural, health, educaton, political, or other problems that affect the common good, and propose a plan of action to solve it or help solve it. alot of issues are being picked up at the moment in football in the uk, racism and social inclusion in particular. whether we can use sport as a means to prevent crime and anti-social behavior in local communities.  you could use in the main qualitative methods (interview local police, youth sport co-ordinators, young people) to give you some depth into the issues surrounding youth crime in that area.   you could take a sample figure of number of incidents before the summer, one during the summer and one after to compare, giving you much stronger evidence to call on. as you would have both quan and qual data.  hope this helps nick
