Abstract

Driving on the works of Dr. King, this researcher developed an integrated framework for understanding how engaged scholarship and civic responsibility organize into three diverse modes: social justice, economic opportunity, and educational uplift: prospectively, in real time, and retrospectively. The researcher unveils how these modes are generally positioned in an influential discourse of risk that lead organizations to reduce risk by controlling risk uniformly that propels the approval of certain risk conditions over others, and through the privatizing of certain key points of information. Besides identification of the communal manner risk is categorized in the three given modes, and demonstrating the manner in which risk is appended by influential discourse, the researcher purports different ways to organize risk that leads to demonstrated positive social justice, enhanced economic opportunity, and educational uplift. This chapter provides for academicians, community leaders, and government official enhanced knowledge about engaged scholarship and civic responsibility.
