crazy) based on his desire to control the company. (Carlock, n
The results suggest that the psychological benefits of intergenerational support exchanges should not be ignored when developing elder care policy in China. (Chen & Silverstein, 2000)
For example, his distinction between two kinds of ethics and how these tend to work out both in the family unit as well as beyond. For example, he makes an important distinction between what he calls "personality ethics," which is essentially the use of "human and public relation techniques" as a way of getting what one wants from people (Covey 19)
While many theorists are associated with conflict theory, Karl Marx is the theorist credited with originating and defining the theory. "Karl Marx led a kind of conflict scholarship that produced credible and powerful analyses of conflict between classes" (Bartos & Wehr, 2002)
Many of them report the belief that it does not matter how hard they try to seek employment, they will be unable to find adequate employment. This attitude may have been modeled within lower socioeconomic subgroups, but actually does not reflect the reality of the labor market, where greater initiative is rewarded, regardless of ethnicity (Buck & Austrin, 1971)
Therefore, one would suspect that even after a transition in political power, one would continue to see white dominance in South Africa, particularly in the economic realm. What is fascinating is that the transition away from Apartheid has helped change South African blacks attitudes towards the economic disparity that still marks black and white life in South Africa, making them more accepting of this disparity, while it has not resulted in a tremendous change in black attitudes towards whites (Duckitt & Mphuthing, 1998)
One of the things that feminist theory, as a social control theory, would suggest is that the greater the number of ways a person is outside of the dominant group, the more vulnerable that person is. The link between domestic violence and increase risk for intimate partner violence is well-established (Frias & Angel, 2005)
However, not only is teenage pregnancy a highly modeled behavior in the lower social economic groups, but it I may even be seen as a positively adaptive behavior in those same groups. For example, lower class teenager mothers who choose to keep and parent their children actually engage in less delinquency than their non-parenting peers, including smoking cigarettes and marijuana usage (Hope et al
However, some Indian scholars have rejected the idea of feminism, challenging its introduction as somehow un-Indian and asserting that it is too Western. However, these challenges have come from people who also desire to maintain some of the elements of the status quo that are most highly linked to intergenerational transmission of poverty, making their concerns seem suspect, at best (Kalpagam, 2002)
These patterns are consistent with basic "conflict theory" assumptions stressing the differential experiences and perceptions of persons at varying locations in the stratification system. From this perspective, individualism appears hegemonic primarily because those who adhere most strongly to ideological alternatives such as structuralism tend to be the politically weakest voices in the crowd" (Merolla et al
In fact, there has been a significant amount of study directed at chronic poverty in the developed and developing countries. This research suggests that while poverty may be simplistically defined as a lack of money, the problem of poverty actually addresses the "absence of transfer of different forms of capital: human, social-cultural, social-political, financial/material and environmental/natural" (Moore, 2001)
Several factors contribute to poverty in women, but when one examines those factors, there is a pattern of them being under the control of those in the dominant groups. These factors include unemployment rates, workplace inequality, and declines in social services (Reid & Tom, 2006)
This is an important factor to keep in mind because scholarly and practical approaches to solving the problem of poverty have often approached the issue as if there is a single definition of poverty. For example, "one frequently employed perspective can be designated as a minimum needs or subsistence approach to the concept of poverty" (Retzlaff, 1978)
Recent estimates of our use of such energy sources have also led to the view of a future with an even higher rate of dependence. Yet, "Fossil fuels are a finite resource," (West 2010)
This is a potential harm that would be reduced by a standardization of protocol. While there is now -- again, in actual practice as opposed to policy -- differentiation between the ways in which children in their kinship homes and those in foster care are treated, a standardization of assessment would treat all children equally in terms of potential for harm (Brems et al
The children at hand should always be at the center of the process. That is not currently the case (Conrad, Ellis, & Ellett, 2006, p
This is especially the case when children are in a situation of joint custody with caregivers living in different cities, counties, or states. Each of these entities has its own standards (in fact if not in theory) of child abuse and may not communicate well with other agencies (Jonson-Reid, 2007, p
Anyone who does not have personal experience with reporting child abuse or seeking to provide protection to children at risk might think that the above proposal -- for a standard reporting and assessment protocol -- must already be in place. But in fact it is not, and until caseworkers have such a protocol and the time needed to use it for each family with whom they interact, there will be no possible way in which other agencies, such as ours, can step in to provide complementary services (Juby & Scannapieco, 2007)
Furthermore, our CAS and attorney representatives can provide an overview of how cases of abuse and/or neglect reach us, what happens to the victims, and how a wide range of child social service agencies are interconnected in their effort to advocate for said victims. This holistic view of how complex a process it is to care for neglected and abused children will help to demonstrate the necessity for both federal oversight and standardized protocols (Olsen, 2007, p
In addition to the oppressed, the oppressors also, in some cases, were traumatized by their own actions. It is argued that the oppressors were only following orders (Diller, 2014) to save their own, and they were also traumatized by the experience
