Essays on Disadvantaged

In the article, “Diverging Development: The Not-so-invisible Hand of Social Class in the United States”, Furstenberg said that social class is quickly beginning to shape the development of children, even before the child is born. Classism is alive in the form of less opportunities for lower social classes, forming a class that isn’t necessarily unintelligent, but uneducated. There exists a stereotype against those of lower social classes that these people do not strive to rise in the social hierarchy, and they often receive sub-par assistance, in part, through this prejudice. The article argues that social class is part ...

Abstract

This brief essay studied the uninsured and the health care disparities they face. Essential Affordable Care Act provisions and their effects were studied. Critical factors affecting the health care of the uninsured were identified; these included race, ethnicity, income, socioeconomic status, culture, language and income. Several research studies concluded that while access to health care has improved, the quality of this care has not improved for the uninsured. Although the number of uninsured has been reduced dramatically since 2010, insurance costs continue to increase significantly. Failure of states to expand Medicaid benefits has limited uninsured patients’ health care options. ...

The four recorded their indecent acts as they kidnapped, gagged and humiliated the victim, who is disabled. The 18-year old victim is a subject of schizophrenia, a mental illness, and attention deficit disorder.

Gender equality is one of the most controversial and complicated issues that have plagued human societies for many years. In fact, the issue regarding gender equality has been an age-old problem that have prevailed even in the contemporary society.

The case of Stella Bliss, for example, is a manifestation that the concept of equality is subjective and depends on the prevailing perception on equality. According to the merits of the case, Stella Bliss, a ...

The world today is seeing more immigration than ever before, both legal and illegal. While countries forging solid links with one another in the vein of the European Union (hereafter referred to as EU for brevity) has encouraged legal immigration of all kinds, while war and deprivation in various other parts of the world has led to a burgeoning refugee crisis, with more people entering Western countries than can be adequately or carefully handled at any one time. These forms of immigration can be seen as quite different to each other at face value; however, when looked at in ...

Disadvantages of Juvenile Justice System

The primary disadvantages found in the juvenile justice system are both interconnected and based largely on what it fails to do as opposed to what it does. Although it was designed to meet the unique needs of children involved in criminal activity as a means of curtailing recidivism, it has not consistently been able to meet the very standards it has set for itself. Worse yet, in failing to do so, the juvenile justice system has acted to complicate the problem even more. Issues of escalating criminal behavior in adulthood, failure to address mental health needs, and racial bias ...

Paul Fryes discusses how the American politicians ignore the problems of the Black people as one of the largest disadvantaged groups in the world and how the Black people cannot create a response to the ignorant politicians by developing a political strategy as a group of all Black voters. As known, political parties give attention to the groups providing a financial contribution to their campaigns, the size of voters in the group, and loyalty of voters in the group. The main aim is to collect the highest possible financial support and collect most of the votes for politicians. The ...

One way of measuring a nation’s income inequality is through the Gini coefficient. The Gini coefficient measures income inequality on a scale of 0 to 1 wherein 0 corresponds to total equality; a scenario wherein everyone is earning the same amount while 1 corresponds to total ...

Cognitive development in children parallels with brain development. By early childhood (2 to 4 years of age), children begin to recognize, recall and use information in a context. The child’s experience with the immediate environment will continue to prune his/her cognitive process. Playing with peers, interacting with adults and certain inherent qualities of the child, will determine the rate of cognitive development. As cognition develops, the child is able to understand stories that are told and will begin to understand certain complex explanation. They also begin to learn languages and try applying it in different situations. (Keels 381-397) ...

In 1971, John Rawls, an American moral and political philosopher, proposed a theory of justice based on the concept of the social contract. The theory stipulates two principles. The first principle states that each person in a society should have, at least, the most extensive basic rights comparable to the rights of everyone else. For example, the rights laid out in the first 10 amendments to the constitution should apply to everyone in society, because they are basic rights; other rights, however, such as the right to drive, are not “basic rights” and do not universally apply. Secondly, inequality ...

The affirmative action program consists in give advantages in education, employment or access to population groups that historically had been a minority, with disabilities or disadvantages against the considered population majority.

Furstenberg analyzes the seemingly unnoticed socially stratified society in modern day America. Through this article, the author looks at the disparity between those in the lower social-economic ranks which he refers to as the disadvantaged families and those who are at the top of the social ladder, which he refers to as the advantaged families. His analysis is centered on the stages of a child’s development from prenatal stage to childhood and ultimately to early adulthood and the different experiences that children from the two family categories have which ultimately determine their position in the social ladder.

Abstract:

Strikes are one of the ways in which conflicts between employers and employees become known. Although they are rare, the effects of strikes are usually major and can affect the involved parties and public for a long time. Usually, strikes are usually a last resort measure when trying to solve conflicts and are considered the most damaging to employers. Employers will therefore try to avoid strikes as much as possible opting for alternative conflict resolution measures that are less damaging to their interests such as mediation and conciliation (Gennard, Judge, Tony, & Richard, 2016). This paper will discuss conflicts in ...

Hi Student 2, it has now been three years since the launch of Obama Care and just as the launch was in shambles, the delivery of the medical provisions has not turned out any better.

I believe that just as the medical system focuses on curing ...

Over the years, while disparity in healthcare remains a pertinent tissue within the healthcare system in America, and more particularly along racial lines, there has been little effort to develop evidence to unearth this reality. While the issue has been significantly explored and documented, there are no specific cases or solutions as to how these disparities can be managed and the disparity gaps closed (Byrd, Michael and Linda, Clayton, 171). Apparently, this is due to the general and historical perception that the disparity will gradually close down and a time, infinite time, will come when disparity in the sector ...

What it essentially calls for is equality between the two genders. One important note to remember about ...

While diversity and equality represent the goal in today’s multicultural society, racialized groups continue to be disadvantaged in the business environment. African-American employees need to work harder in order to keep their jobs and to advance in their careers, and they are more likely to be fired for unsubstantial reasons. African-American women are less likely to be promoted in the corporate world than any other group in the country, including White women.
