Did the Welfare System Cause the Dissolution of the Black Family?

Introduction

In 1965 when the civil rights movements was experiencing an explosion, Daniel Patrick Moynihan penned a report to President Johnson claiming that one of the major reasons for poverty amongst black Americans was the fact that a quarter of black families were being headed by women. While that report caused a lot of uproar for the then White House aide, today we still see that many African American homes are manned by single women as many black babies seem to be born outside of wedlock. This is a problem that looks to ...

In a society, the weaker group would always demand that special treatment be accorded to them. This approach has always favoured an adoption of affirmative actions for the weaker persons in society. Women, if compared to men have been the weaker sex. History reveals a record of marginalization and mistreatment of women across societies. In fact, jurisdictions like Saudi Arabia in the Middle East are yet to grant women full rights and freedoms. However, this does not mean that women have always been the victims in every situation. Indeed, many situations exist that cast women as the villains in society. This ...

Introduction

Healthcare involves the collaboration of various medical organizations, institutions, and providers, all of whom manage their own data under different storage and retrieval systems, and though practical and efficient within the target system, there is a lack of uniformity in structure across other systems (Masud et al. 2012). Moreover, there are often variations in data compiled from the same resources. This lack of synergy between the various data storage systems, and the types of information stored, preclude the sharing of data among the various healthcare professionals, institutions, and organizations. E-health systems, on the other hand, allow the storage and retrieval ...

The Problem

Cloud Network security is very significant when it comes to online data and transactions. Attackers often examine vulnerabilities within the cloud system. There are malwares and viruses that can be easily detected and those that cannot be detected easily. With advance technology and increase in computing knowledge, network attackers use sophisticated software that can beat most antiviruses and firewalls hence accessing the system without anyone noticing them (Kumar, 2015). Malicious code also referred to as (malware) often grow ...

INTRODUCTION

The protocols at the transport layer of the OSI reference model provides an end-to-end data delivery service for application processes to exchange messages over the Internet. Protocols operating in the Transport layer use the services of the Internet Protocol (IP) to deliver messages. Many protocols exist at his layer and one of the most important protocols at this layer is Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) for the delivery of data between the Application Layer and the Internet Layer. The shortcoming of IP to guarantee the delivery of datagrams is overcome by TCP by setting up a virtual circuit between the communicating ...

RFID devices read information contained in a wireless device commonly known as ‘tags’ from a distance without any physical contact. In a typical RFID communication, a clear line of sight is required. Although RFID technology was available from ...

PRISON DISCRIMINATION

The prison system within the American judicial system is tainted and full of discrimination. Various authors describe the value of human life by saying; race does not exist, but rather merely human beings (Gordon 1983; Wilson and Moore 2003). All humans are unique despite their social background, ethnic race as well as the language they speak. Therefore, this raises a question as to why is there is a social divide amongst humans, and why it continues to develop over the years. These questions are some, but a few of the overwhelming thoughts that both academic scholars and politicians have had a difficult time ...

The Equity theory was first developed by John Stacey Adams. Equity theory attempts to draw a relation between the pay of an employee to his input and eventual output at workplace. On the surface, equity theory advances the notion that the higher one is paid, the more input he should put and hence the more of the organizational output ought to be credited to him. However, the complexity of reward management system in various organizations makes the assumption flawed in some instances. This paper discusses equity theory, examines its modern day applications and critically reviews its place in management of ...

Introduction

Contemporary studies view parties as alliances of politicians whose ultimate objective is to win electoral office. Parties make promises on behalf of their candidates about what they will do if elected, and help improve chances of reelection for incumbents through their records of implementing their programs (Bawn et al. 571). It is plain to see how these parties might serve democracy. Citizens can give more effective direction to government by voting for a party instead of an individual. They create an incentive for responsible governance by holding an entire party rather than a single politician accountable for government actions (Bawn et ...

ABSTRACTThis paper explores the many general similarities between Alice Walker’s "The Welcome Table" and Nadine Gordimer’s "Country Lovers", and the ways in which racism is presented by both writers. Both stories condemn the hypocrisy and attack the injustices of racist societies. Both stories have a symbolic element which is examined and discussed and the fact that both stories are set in very different societies and, therefore, have very different contexts and settings is always at the heart of the paper’s argument. Each story is also discussed and explored separately in order to focus on its individual qualities. ...

Electric and Plug-In Cars: effects on the grid

With the rising numbers of “electric vehicles” and “plug-in hybrid vehicles” that are being introduced into the market, there is a need to assess the impact of integrating a large pool of electric and plug-in cars and vehicles into the system. Majority of these cars can be adapted into “vehicle to grid (V2G) applications in future “smart grid networks” that requires for “bidirectional” energy flows from the vehicles and the power grid. The “plug-in” cars can offer a number of grid services such as monitoring and “spinning” storage, or create revenue streams by trading in power at varying times ...

Introduction

Homelessness is a substantial and systemic problem, as it provides people with the fewest resources even less of a chance to better themselves and escape the cycle of poverty. Homeless youth, in particular, face particular problems, being offered substantially fewer chances to succeed compared to other youth of the same age who are not homeless.
