Introduction

Tracing back to the 4th century BCE, emotion in art was highly valued and praised by illustrious people such as Aristotle, the Greek philosopher. During romanticism and expressionism, free expression of own emotions became a rule among most artists. Turning to the modern art, individual emotions, as point of the existence of human beings, are generally considered the breath of art creation. Among most, if not all, students of art, it is popular to follow their true and real feelings to work. However, by doing this, they are apt to produce some strange creative works with a prejudice, which can be ...

- Introduction
Establishing justice for the victim of a crime is one of the purposes of the legal justice system; it is a founding basis upon which other legal principles are built. There is a difference between justice and revenge, however; and revenge is often the topic of discussion when including victims in the legal process is concerned, particularly in the sentencing phase. The discussion here will center around the question of whether the victim or victims should be involved in the sentencing process, given their close emotional connection with the crime in question.

Introduction

Today’s society has set beauty standards by the appearance, such as face features and body, and divided others into the terms ‘beautiful’ or ‘ugly’, based on whether one’s appearance fits the standard or not. The standard of beauty has been set through various social implications, which makes the standard different by cultures and countries. We cannot, thus, define what exactly the meaning of ‘beautiful’ is. However, it is nearly the same for any culture and for any country that today’s society judges others by the appearance and treats differently. To achieve my research goal, I have ...

Child sexual abuse is an issue facing the society with many of the victims failing to report of such instances due to the fear of being seen lesser in the society. As a result, many of sexual abuse victims fail to disclose the issue or report it when it is too late to handle (Bolen 165). Many of the children feel confused, ashamed and fail to know the nature and extent of the act. Although it is difficult to understand whether a child was sexually abused, parents may understand this by observing the behaviours of their children (Winters 189). Some of ...

The term ‘appearance discrimination’ represents a new discriminatory phenomenon in our modern society. As compared to the past, today’s modern society tends to judge others by the individual’s appearance, treating others differently based on their relative attractiveness. Appearance discrimination based on beauty gives rise to inequality in communities in today’s societies and groups such as the labor market. This research proposes the discriminatory phenomenon that one’s physical attractiveness is a significant factor in the workplace, and that discrimination based on physical beauty does occur therein.
For this research, the subjects of the study will all be ...

Whenever people are isolated from their peers in society, they experience a strong urge to prove themselves worthy of their inclusion. Extreme cases of social repression causes the victims (the disabled people) to get into desperation that leads to protests and activism. Such desperate measures, however, do not help the victims to qualify for inclusion in the social classes they target so they can feel normal (like everybody else seems to enjoy normality). For instance, most activities normal children participate in, may not be open to those with special needs. The frustration builds and causes not only bitterness and hatred but ...

My representations are of two materials that are closely related about the suburbs of St. Louis and as such are from approximately the same period. The first is a picture from 1917 and is named "mob stopping street car". The second is an article from the New York Times called “Massacre at St. Louis." The major theme that keeps reoccurring in these two texts is that of racism in America. Saint Louis is rumored to be one of the most racist cities in the country, and that is no exception to its suburbs.
The two articles show in explicit ...

Homosexuality and how societies deal with homosexual individuals is an issue that has created a great amount of controversy and discussions. It appears that the homosexuals were under “attack” once they had decided to step out of the sealed closed doors and state out loud their sexual preferences, claiming their right for fair treatment and a chance for a happy life with their other half.
Truth is the homosexuals were once considered societal “monsters” and had to be banished from the communities they belonged. They were simply opposed to everything that has been by then established; the morals, the values, the ...

Introduction
In December 2010, Arab revolution was accidentally started by Mohamed Bouazizi. Bouazizi worked as fruits and vegetables seller in his town, illegally. One day, a police officer stopped him and confiscated his cart as a weekly usual; this was not a big deal for him. Mohamed tried hard to get his cart back, and he managed to do it. Several minutes later, the same police officer returned, angry and full of hatred, slapped Mohamed and asked other policemen to kick him- for no reason. Bouazizi was furious. He could not control his anger, not because of the ...

In the contemporary societal structure, oppression and discrimination against the women folk of the society is a burning issue. The discrimination and chauvinism reflects the patriarchal practices and is reflected in every sphere of human life in the society. This form of the society has been in prevalence since the ancient times, but in the recent times, feminist movements have dared to shake the pillars of the baleful patriarchal structure from its very roots.
The plight of the women has found expression in art and literature all over the world. Women have opted for the pen to pour out ...

Human trafficking is an issue, which comes from ancient times, when Egyptians made their slaves built famous pyramids and Romans exploited Greeks in order to fill the gap in their own education. Times changed and every human is born free and able to choose his own path. However, modern slavery though illegal, takes its place and poses a great problem of the modern society. So personally for me this acute issue is worth being discussed and given attention to.
According to the definition taken from the official website of the Department of Homeland security human trafficking is viewed as ‘a ...

Racism occurs when people use races to categorize themselves into different racial groups. These different groups form different races. When people are grouped into different races, some groups feel superior to others while others feel inferior and thus feel insecure. Racial discrimination manifests itself when some groups of people feel superior than other races which in turn lead to unequal distribution of economic resources as a more superior race tend to discriminate others in terms of resource distribution.
Stereotypes are unproved ideas of some categorize of people. These are based on racial differences, tribal lines, their sexes and the ...

Human trafficking is defined as the recruitment, transportation, harbouring or receipt of individuals by means of coercion, abduction, deception, fraud or abuse of power of a state of vulnerability for the aim of exploitation. It is estimated that over 600,000 to 800,000 individuals (men, women and children) are trafficked across borders each year. Trafficking victims suffer physiological and physical harm. The issue of language barrier, insufficient knowledge about the law and the frequency that trafficking takes place presents authorities with significant challenges in aiding victims and bringing traffickers to justice.

Introduction

Currently in the United States and across all the nations of the world, allegations of media bias have formed headlines in different forums for discussion. Media bias usually occurs when one party in a news media feels that the media have favored the other party’s viewpoint. However, the media has constantly refuted these claims and allegations pointing out that these conflicting views have to be presented and obviously one side of the argument have to supersede. According to the media, every individual would wish his/her idea to be favored, making it impossible to satisfy both sides at one time. ...

In the labor market, there are several factors which affect it. The market comprises of ethnic groups, social class and sexual orientation. (Pager, D.2009). In this paper, I am going to discuss about the effect of race/ethnicity, social class, or sexual orientation on labor market.
First and foremost, the issue of ethnicity and race in the labor market has really been an issue since in most of the highly racist countries, the black are looked down upon and they cannot be treated the same way like the whites. They suffer from wage inequality as well as stereotyping and ...

Gender discrimination is the maltreatment of an individual based on their sex. This form of discrimination most commonly affects women. It also may affect homosexual and transgendered men. Whereas women represent approximately fifty percent of the global population, they are woefully underrepresented in a variety of fields including leadership roles. Gender discrimination takes the form of unequal pay for equal work, unwanted sexual advances, demands for sexual favors in exchange for workplace advancement, discrimination during pregnancy, and general unfavorable views towards women based on their roles as mothers.

Cultural diversity in organizations is one fact that should not be overlooked. When properly managed, various benefits accrue; however, poor management of cultural differences in organizations results into interpersonal conflicts, misunderstandings and communication breakdowns, and failure of the organization to achieve its goals. Some of the major benefits of cultural diversity to an organization are greater invention and innovation, better decision making, and better achievement of the organization’s goals in areas of marketing. For the maximization of these benefits, organizations should aim at achieving the multi-cultural synergy in the work place. Described herein is a business plan of an ...

And their Effect on the Reduction of Human Trafficking

Introduction
Human trafficking has been defined by Clawson et al as “modern day slavery” and it is a crime that affects every nation of the world (2009). As a crime it is most commonly associated with the women folk and little children who find themselves traded for the purpose of sexual or labor intensive services. The Citizens for Community Values (n.d.) stated that human trafficking does in fact go beyond sex and labor to other forms of exploitation. Agreeing with that definition the arm of The United Nations that handle unfair treatment of human beings have described trafficking as “the ...

When one thinks about human trafficking, they think about countries from the Middle East or Africa, kidnapping children to become soldiers and fight in wars or little girls to become sex slaves. However, what many people do not realize is that this heinous crime occurs in their own backyard. Human trafficking is an issue that happens in countries all over the world, even countries that are seemingly progressive, such as the United States. In the United States alone, between 14,000 and 17,500 people per year enter the country for trafficking purposes (Goodhart 203). Within the United States, ...

Over the years, gender inequality issues within the society have led to women empowerment and successive fight for gender equality. Despite consistent women activist groups and international agreements, women have remained poor and illiterate in the society. According to research, women have limited access to resources and services such as medical care, employment, property ownership, training, and credit. As a result, women have become more susceptible to domestic violence, and poor living conditions as compared to men. There have been various women’s empowerment organizations around the globe that have been founded with the aim of addressing women needs and ...

Human trafficking continues to be a persistent problem in the United States of America. Every year, tens of thousands of innocent people are trafficked into and out of the country, either willingly or unwillingly. The rates of trafficking are greater in some states than others with data currently indicating that Georgia and Florida are two of the states that have the highest rates of human trafficking. South Carolina is also another state that experiences relatively high rates of human trafficking. To curb these high rates of human trafficking, a special task force that exclusively deals with human trafficking cases and that ...

My study is about whether there are sufficient disclosures in rape cases to allow for a conclusive investigation and thus a fair judgement. According to Patterson (2012), only a few of reported rape cases are prosecuted in the legal system. Patterson (2012) in his study, identifies that the manner of evidence gathering by detectives is a key determinant of whether or not the rape victim generates strong statements that could lead to a strong case in court. Indeed, in their study involving 20 women who were rape victims, there was sufficient evidence that the level of disclosure by a ...

Abstract

Discrimination at the work place as a result of sex orientation is a common occurrence in virtually all countries. Hiring, promotion and employee identification are in most cases biased on one’s sexual orientation making homosexuality and same-sex marriages an important issue with regards to employment today. Homosexuality and same-sex marriage, however, do not have a rich history as there is avowedly very little about them in the past. The two are nonetheless some of the most hotly debated issues currently; debates that have seen the enactment of several laws in the world over that either prohibit or allow homosexuality and same ...

The purpose of this study is to determine the deterrent effect of the death penalty or capital punishment in the commission of future crimes. Most of the criminal experts believe that the justification for the imposition of the death penalty against criminals should be for retributive grounds and to make the criminals suffer the consequences of their actions. Thus, when a person kills another, the retributive effect of capital punishment or the death penalty is take the life of the murderer (Radelet & Akers, 1996). The main reason for the imposition of the death penalty is to discourage the murderers to ...

How does the factor of gender impact the concept of violent offending?
One of the most commonly held notions is that males have a higher propensity to commit violent crimes compared to women. This holding is one of the most widely held concepts in the area of criminology. However, there is a growing debate as to the scope of the “gender gap” in terms of violent offending has shifted in recent years. A number of commentators hold that the gap is described in terms of its stability; others proffer that there is an observable closing of the gap, particularly ...

The most recent case of Ahmed Mohamed, a 14-year old Muslim student who was arrested for bringing to school a digital clock he made using a pencil case, which the teacher misconstrued as a hoax bomb, represents the situation that members of ethnic minority groups studying in ...

Introduction

In the modern world, human trafficking is a problem that causes humanitarian concern. Victims of human trafficking have endured unimaginable suffering. Humanitarian aid workers have often been on the forefront to salvage the situation. However, their efforts have been frustrated since some law enforcement agents and politicians support this illegal activity. The fight against human trafficking in the United States can be traced back to 1999 when the Congress raised an alarm over the issue. Unfortunately, the vice still persists although the number of victims has reduced. This therefore raises several questions about human trafficking as it affects the well-being ...

Women have been the subject of discrimination and inequality in the past. And despite the societal progress and development, as well as the emergence of legislations that protect their rights, women remain to experience inequality in one way or another.

The gender wage gap is defined as the average difference of the hourly earnings between men and women (European, 2) A study conducted at the Institute for Women’s Policy Research revealed that women were paid lower than men in a ...

No matter how hard we try to believe that we are living in a developed country and we are literate and modern people, studies show that we still are not free from the shackles of domestic violence. According to a survey conducted by US National Institute of Mental Health, 42.8% of women were victims of domestic violence yet they still were in that abusive relationship (Nauert, 2010). Abusive relationships take the form of physical, emotional, psychological and verbal abuse which might leave the victim dwell in the darkness of reality.
