For the cultural immersion project I have chosen to learn more about the Eastern Europe, as I believe that I lack relevant and unbiased knowledge about Slavic culture, their values, attitudes and traditions.

Chapter 5 – Quiz 5 2. In the days and weeks immediately following the tragic events of September 11, 2001, some political leaders claimed that “extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures”; in times of war, basic civil liberties and freedoms, such as privacy, need to be severely restricted for the sake of national security and safety. Perhaps, as a nation, the value that we have traditionally attached to privacy has diminished significantly since then. Consider that the majority of American citizens strongly supported the USA (United and Strengthening America) PATRIOT (Provide Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism) Act, ...

Cultural assimilation reflects the fusion and the interpretation of the different ethnic minority groups in the dominant culture of the society. The immigrant group is expected to assume the behavior, norms and values of eth dominant group and their challenges stem from the lack of tolerance for these groups by the majority groups that are not tolerant of the differences in the racial and ethnic of the minority groups.

However, there is one method that would be more effective than any of those attempted to date.

Regardless of the criticism this method produces, in removing the highest risk individuals from the street, selective incapacitation will triumph over other methods of crime control.

Income Inequality

Income Inequality

The income inequality or the wide gap that exists between the highest earning worker and the lowest earning in the United States is widening. Income inequality started with technological advances, which benefited higher skilled workers more than the medium and unskilled workers.

Income inequality is also linked to educational attainment disparity.

The population of the Native Americans is not big which makes it hard for them to debunk the misconceptions and to dismiss the mythologies associated to them. The common misconceptions and stereotypes about Native Americans came from our experiences and how we are ...

Introduction

Racial profiling is the targeting of a particular race for a particular crime. The practice was rampant from the time before the Civil War. African-Americans frisked by police from the street irrespective of their status (free or enslaved) were a common practice. The punishments for criminals differed as per color of the skin until the end of the crack cocaine period. The practice is unwelcome with minority communities since it often results in unfair treatment. An African-American or Hispanic origin civilian has higher chances of police questioning him compared to a Caucasian. In addition, the post-9/11 era comprises of ...

I. A.) In 1996, Congress enacted the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA). One of DOMA’s provisions defined marriage in terms to whether same-sex couples were entitled to federal benefits as a legal union that could only be consummated between a man and a woman.

Currently, the government of India aims to replace its old structure of financial reporting with the enforcement of IFRS. This paper aims to critically review the research report titled as “IFRS in India: Challenges and Opportunities”, written ...

The disparity between how society perceives the criminal justice system and how it actually works is a common occurrence that tends to skew how one impacts the other. A popular view of how the justice system works is provided by the media, which carries a great deal of sensationalism in an attempt to entertain the masses. Unfortunately this tends to instill the idea that justice is a series of one-liners and neatly completed cases that, regardless of their outcome, are final and without any further consequences. The idealized view of the criminal justice system is far different from its ...

The motto of enlightenment is “Have courage to use your own reason.” Philosopher Immanuel Kant described enlightenment as a path that all of us have access to, but few of us take advantage of. It is defined as “a man’s release from his self-incurred tutelage” (Kant, 1). That is, enlightenment is self-incurred because most of society adopts the dominant feelings of the popular majority. However, Kant presents it is difficult for individuals to reach a level of such enlightenment because they lack the courage to do so. It takes courage to stand out on one’s own faith, ...

People’s attitude towards political parties does not differ much in all over the globe.

But nevertheless, political parties play a crucial role in the modern democratic world.

The party that gained the majority of votes forms a government and those parties left form an opposition.

There is no better example of the unethical, irrational, and questionable discussion than watching the circus of politicians’ debate during this election year in the United States.

However, the role that political leaders take on should involve respectable rational dialogue that can be trusted by the people who elect the officials rather than putting on a spectacle that is nearly as entertaining as ...

Having been communicated the subject matter to be dealt with in the course of work, I immediately plunged into thorough speculation on the utility of this kind of social research.

Throughout its entire history, society has always had this expressed tendency to get more and more divided into certain groups and subdivisions as to race, sex, color, origin, religion and so on. Thus, nowadays a majority of people are prone to assess themselves and determine their position in ...

The globalization phenomenon has led to increased diversity in regards to the type of patients that a nurse can come across while discharging his or her professional duties. Globalization has led to the breaking down of racial and cultural barriers which hitherto segmented various aspects of human interaction including the provision of health care services. With the increased patient diversity due to globalization, a need has thus emerged for cultural awareness training within nursing education and development realms (Campinha-Bacote, 2011). However, this is not the case as a majority of nurses who are churned out of the nursing education ...
