Term Papers on Social Issues

Dangerous Driving And The Effects On Youth
Number of words: 1975 - Number of pages: 8

.... on the corner where the girls were sitting. This article involves the day of Mr. Park's conviction, the reaction of the girls' parents and also the reaction of Mr. Park's mother. The problem of dangerous driving as viewed from a theoretical standpoint can easily be identified with the social control theory. The control theory questions not what motivates individuals and society in general to indulge in societal deviant behaviour but rather examines what is within the structure of a society that causes individuals to conform to social laws. A social control t .....


Divorce In The United States
Number of words: 1314 - Number of pages: 5

.... laws. Because divorce laws vary from state to state, the "migratory divorce" developed: couples would move temporarily to a state where divorce was easier to obtain than at home. For example, a couple living in New York State, where until 1967 the only grounds for divorce was adultery, would establish residence in Nevada - - a procedure that took only 6 weeks -- and file for divorce on grounds of mental cruelty. Popular attitudes toward divorce changed as the United States became more urbanized and less religious. The increasing acceptance of divorce was r .....


Multicultural Education
Number of words: 3020 - Number of pages: 11

.... of every four Americans identifying themselves as black, Hispanic, Asian, Pacific Islander, or American Indian (Gould 198). The number of foreign born residents also reached an all time high of twenty million, easily passing the 1980 record of fourteen million. Most people, from educators to philosophers, agree that an important first step in successfully joining multiple cultures is to develop an understanding of each others background. However, the similarities stop there. One problem is in defining the term "multiculturalism". When it is looked at .....


Money And The Way It Alters The Mind
Number of words: 625 - Number of pages: 3

.... consumers to possess. Unlike Americans, Germans find a “University professor,” more of a commodity than a “celebrity.” Unfortunately, Americans loose their focus on reality because the ones with the power are the ones who are money hungry and run the world. It is insane how the majority of Americans see celebrities as heroes instead of the scientists who try to make the world a better place. The world is run, not necessarily by the money itself, but the mentality that people have which makes them crave the power that comes with the pleasure of being well off. .....


Roles Of Individuals And Societies
Number of words: 1236 - Number of pages: 5

.... some doubt; surely we have control of ourselves, do we all not have control of our own faculties at this very moment? At this moment you are reading or being subjected to a reading of this paper, therefore if this indeed is not fufilling some immediate obvious desire it is accomplishing some sort of other goal. Likely this goal is to achieve an education but again we might ask ourselves why? Surely we all want to further our scholarly qualities and develop our minds but more likely this again has an underlying goal: to succeed in society. Society has show .....


Racism
Number of words: 1501 - Number of pages: 6

.... are applying for the same job and the person hiring is white. The black person has a higher education and more experience, but the white person is offered the job because he is white. Sexism: is a way of thinking and behaving as though one sex is better than the other; especially, unfair treatment of women by men, caused by thinking this way. You should not treat someone different because of their sex. Woman and men are equal in most ways and can usually complete the same tasks equally well. Narrow-mindedness: is another form of racism. Narrow-mindedness .....


Increase In Violence In Video Games Targeted At Children
Number of words: 658 - Number of pages: 3

.... that the students felt as if they were releasing their aggression in these games in a fantasy like way. It stated that the students would not kill in real life, but would kill over the Internet in a multi player situation and gave them aggression relief (Video Game Violence 1). In another survey done by the Internet Wire in 1999, it showed that sixty eight percent of the people who took the survey thought that game violence was an acceptable form of entertainment. However, only five percent said that it would likely lead to violent tendencies and seventy th .....


Women In Math And Science
Number of words: 1051 - Number of pages: 4

.... feel unwelcome in science classes for a number of reasons: examples and applications are most often masculine, interactions sanction male dominance, science content appears to have no connection to women's experience, and competition is emphasized over collaboration (Taylor and Sweetnam). So what do the teachers who positively influence young women do that is so different it completely changes women's view about science? In a study of eighty women who became science teachers, they were asked about the teachers they remember and the most influential reasons t .....
