Term Papers on Social Issues

Equity In Canada
Number of words: 1143 - Number of pages: 5

.... It was later mentioned that his medical condition could have resulted in death. The issue of racism is certainly not new to the Halifax area. In the 1960’s blacks were ordered out of their village, and in 1980’s Sikh immigrants were called ‘trash’ and told to ‘go home.’ I found the author’ s choice of words quite appropriate when she described the ‘people of the east’ in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Words such as Bluenoser, Gaelic and homogeneity were used to describe the vast majority of people who look and sound the same in the community. Throughout t .....

.... common ones are the Draize Test and the LD50. The Draize test is an eye test named after a man by the name of John Draize. This test involves dropping a substance into an animal’s eye and watching the results.(All for Animals Newsletter, Issue 1) This test is usually preformed on albino rabbits, and it is done by clipping their eyes back. The painful results of this test include swelling of the eyelids, inflammation of the iris, ulceration, bleeding, blindness, and death resulting from broken necks.(the animal breaks their neck in an attempt to get free). The .....


Arguments Against The Relativists Theory
Number of words: 2299 - Number of pages: 9

.... claim that the Allies were wrong in fighting the Germans due to a cultural disagreement. In truth, it is the relativist position which has both negative logical and practical consequences, and negligible benefits. The first logical consequence of relativism is that the believer must contradict himself in order to uphold his belief. The view states that all ethics are relative while putting forth the idea that no absolute standard of rightness exists. If this is the case, then what is cultural relativism relative to? From a purely logical point of vi .....


Blacks: A Struggle For Racial Equality
Number of words: 676 - Number of pages: 3

.... is talking to a team-mate named Pete. It is indisputable that Pete has some antagonism towards blacks. He treats them with very little respect and uses the racist term "nigger." This helps to justify that blacks are treated with considerably less appreciation than other races of people. Let us also look at the fact that blacks are often socially outcasted because of their race. We see this in The Runner. "You're telling me you won't work with him because he's a negro?" "That's right."3 As we can see the above exert clearly shows how the black person was .....

Number of words: 611 - Number of pages: 3

.... other chemicals in the marijuana plant. LSD LSD is very potent: the effective dose is measured in micrograms (ug) -- however, the lethal dose is literally thousands of times that, making the drug essentially non-toxic. LSD can be administered a number of ways, the most common: orally through paper, sugar cubes, on a piece of gelatin, or by pill; intravenously; or intramuscularly. A standard dose with noticeable hallucinogenic effects is about 100-200 ug. The intensity of the trip is proportional to the size of the dose -- it i .....


Sexual Violence Against Women
Number of words: 1976 - Number of pages: 8

.... Most women have male bosses. If they are harassed they tend not to report it, for they are scared to lose their jobs. Sexual harassment is any unwanted sexual advances, comments or requests that make one feel uncomfortable. "Sexual contact or threat of sexual contact or coercion for the purpose of sexual contact which is not freely entered into a mutually agreeable to both parties." It is difficult to know what ones perception of sexual harassment is. An arm around the shoulder to one person may not make them uncomfortable but to another it could be haras .....


The Family Is A Social Institution
Number of words: 534 - Number of pages: 2

.... society, the more we depend on our family to provide emotional and intimate ambience to come back to. Our society has moved away from the traditional nuclear families towards extended families, blended families, childless marriages, single parents etc. The key word now is variety where multi-generation households are making a comeback. My views on family and marriage have remained more or less the same since early childhood. Indian marriage as it stands today is a very old institution. To outsiders it seems strange if not outright absurd sometimes. To some de .....


The Role Of Entertainers As Educators
Number of words: 1915 - Number of pages: 7

.... setting exacting rules for theater performance in the process (Burdick 99). Similarly, Irish monks established singing schools, which taught uniform use of music throughout the church (Young "'). Through chants which were all the same, they spread identical teachings. Christian psalms and hymns in Apostolic times were sung to spread the knowledge and faith of Christianity. In fact, Christianity was promoted from the start by music. Churches were for long the only centers of learning, with monks teaching all lessons through music (Young "9). Through the .....
