Abstract
This study analyzes the premise of racial segregation through the familial, educational, and social background found within James Baldwin's essay "Notes of a Native Son." Baldwin's father is an example of the racial construct of family that drives Baldwin's desire to find a better life as a writer. The writer notes that, in many instances, Baldwin presents a rhetorical narrative that defines the victimization of his race through his father, which is paramount to proving that segregation is a real phenomenon in American society. In essence, the writer concludes that the basis of a familial, educational and social background reveals the tenets of racial segregation that was a major part of Baldwin's life as an African-American writer.
From the Paper
"Another aspect of Baldwin's essay relates to the problem of social upheaval that occurred and how it affected his family. Not only was his father deeply cynical of whites and their role of aggression towards African Americans, but there was also the symbolic threat of rioting that had occurred when his father had died. In many Ways, Baldwin feels a parallel social influence on his family that made an impression on his mind. The riot that were taking place in Harlem acted in tandem with Baldwin's father's death, thereby activating a sense of purpose in his life. He certainly saw a cause in combating racial segregation because of the damage it caused to his society. This is the sympathetic relationship that he viewed in his father, but was part of the ongoing build up of violence during the Civil Rights era .."

"Swamp Angel" & "Twenty-Six", 2008.
This paper compares and contrasts the books "Swamp Angel by Ethel Wilson and "Twenty-Six" by Leon Mckay Jr.

Abstract
In this article, the writer notes that Ethel Wilson's "Swamp Angel" and Leon McKay Jr.'s "Twenty-Six" are two dramatic novels written by Canadian authors and set within Canadian borders. The writer maintains that despite these superficial similarities they are, however, very similar books in their themes of compassion, familial relationships, time, drama, pain, and the necessity of moving forward. The writer concludes that the endings of "Swamp Angel" and "Twenty-Six" represent the importance of compassion in redemption. Life is difficult, the authors seem to acknowledge; but it rolls on, regardless of us. The writer maintains that the only means through which we can improve our lives and obtain meaning is through acceptance of change and the embracing of the human beings who are important to us - our family.
From the Paper
"Both novels deal closely with the theme of compassion towards those around us, as part of being human. The novels Swamp Angel and Twenty-Six also deal with the concept of responsibility, particularly in a familial sense. Wilson's book serves to remind the reader what it is to be human. That is, we must not only be ourselves, but are responsible for the consequences of our actions and how they effect others - especially family members. This concept of responsibility is tied in with the idea of time. Wilson's character Maggie demonstrates that though time is ours, it does not permit us the joy and irresponsibility of floating along of our own accord, acting of our own whim without regard to others. Instead, life and relationships are temporal. And, in the temporal flow of relationships, changes abound. When Mrs. Severance gives up the Swamp Angel, she recognizes that time and change are necessary ideals to uphold."

The Sociology of Aging, 2008.
This paper discusses how an aging America creates economic, labor market, health and demographic trends that have serious long-term implications.

Abstract
This paper reviews the steady aging of the American population (certainly among the native-born) and looks at what this means for the social and economic future of the United States. In particular, the paper looks at the various economic, labor market, health and demographic trends gripping America and at how they are all coming together at a significant point in U.S. history. More than that, the paper argues that the United States faces possible economic contraction, run-away social costs, social fragmentation, and a general decline in vigor and/or productivity unless it finds a way to implement policy changes that will nudge the nation towards a brighter future.
Outline:
Abstract
References
From the Paper
"Other economic trends can be easily associated with an aging population. For one thing, it is axiomatic that older investors tend to be much more interested in investments that offer long-term security and reliable returns. Conversely, younger investors who have many more years in the workforce ahead of them - and who have the time necessary to "rebound" from a bad investment - may be more willing to put their money into high-risk, high-reward ventures. Suffice it to say, part of the vitality of the American economy resides in the willingness of people to "take a chance" and finance a fledgling company that has an uncertain future. As the population grows older, however, the interest in participating in venture capitalism and/or engaging in entrepreneurial activities diminishes in relative terms; as a result, a major component of America's economic success is greatly constrained."

Helen Longino's "Pornography, Oppression and Freedom", 2008.
This paper rejects Helen Longino's position on pornography as presented in her work, "Pornography, Oppression and Freedom: A Closer Look".

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper explains that Helen Longino argues in her article "Pornography, Oppression and Freedom: A Closer Look" that pornography by its nature is harmful to women and should be controlled and eliminated. The author maintains that Longino bases this position on tenuous distinctions between pornography and erotica and on the liberal use of universal claims about the effect that pornography has on women and their place in society. The paper contends that, despite her superficially well-reasoned article, a closer examination of Longino's claims and analysis reveals problems that undermine her argument. The paper then asserts that pornography cannot be considered necessarily and categorically harmful to women. The paper concludes that the marginal harm that pornography might cause in isolated incidents is not great enough to justify banning pornography and restricting this form of sexual expression.
From the Paper
"Longino argues that these harms are cause enough to invoke laws and regulations that would limit freedom of expression and sexual expression. But are these harms entirely plausible? Is the potential for these harms to be realized justification enough to ban pornography. F.M. Christensen would say no, that efforts to ban pornography through limitations on freedoms--especially freedom of expression--is reprehensible and much more harmful to society than the potential ills of pornography. On this point, I agree with Christensen."

Part 4 - Cross-Sectional, Panel and Trend Designs
From the Paper
"One of the ways to determine the causal impact of certain conditions upon social groups it through the use of "True Experiments". True Experiments contain at least three elements, being: at least two comparison group, an experimental group and the control group; before the measuring of change in the dependent variable, a variation must be made in the independent variable; and, members of the comparison groups are randomly assigned (Schutt, 2006, p.201). These elements are important in determining the causal mechanism and controlling the experiment."

Homeless in Toronto, 2008.
This paper discusses the problem of homelessness in Toronto focusing on the years 1987-2005.
1,507 words (approx. 6.0 pages), 7 sources, MLA, $ 49.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
In this article, the writer notes that homelessness in Toronto is an ever-growing problem facing the city. The materialization of this problem has not been caused by one single action or event. Rather, it has been growing due to several factors facing homeless individuals, as well as the society and the government. This paper discusses the extent of the problem of homelessness in Toronto, the problems that the homeless people are facing today as well as the factors that have led to a rise in homelessness, including the cutbacks in social programmers and policy by the government. Finally, the writer discusses what needs to be done in order to deal with this problem.
From the Paper
"Homeless people also face many barriers to accessing the healthcare system, sometimes simply because they do not have a permanent address or because their health card has been stolen. Furthermore, there are prevailing false beliefs and stereotypes about the homeless, particularly since historically homelessness has been linked to vagrancy. Many still believe that homelessness in the result of an inadequacy or failure of an individual rather than the responsibility of the society. Many studies have pointed to the fact that the increase in the number of homeless citizens significantly burdens many other services: health, legal, employment etc."

Social Contract Theory, 2008.
This paper looks at the advantages and disadvantages of the social contract theory.
1,411 words (approx. 5.6 pages), 2 sources, APA, $ 47.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
The paper looks at what the social contract theory holds morality to be as well as the apparent advantages and disadvantages of the theory as a guide for regulating the moral actions of everyday citizens. The paper looks at how the theory fails insofar as it insufficiently protects the disabled from mistreatment at the hands of others. The paper focuses on the sad case of Baby Theresa, a disabled child whose demise offers a poignant rebuttal of the social contract view that some creatures should be beyond moral consideration. The paper warns that once a society decides that utilitarian arguments should hold sway when it comes to who should live and die, it opens up the potential for large numbers of its citizens to be exploited brutally by others.
From the Paper
"In the view of Hobbes, morality is the practical solution to the question of how best human beings can interact with one another in a social context. Put another way, morality is needed (even if people do not see profound religious or philosophical reasons for its existence) because all of us need a stable and secure society if we are to enjoy all the benefits that should accrue to us as social beings (Rachel, 2003b). Seen in this light, one may present the case that a society committed to the social contract will work industriously to preserve the rights of all citizens - including the mentally-disabled. After all, if the rights of one group are undermined, then the rights of all other groups can easily be undermined, as well."

Views on Death: Religion and Society, 2008.

Abstract
The paper examines Kubler-Ross' work "Death: The Final Stages of Growth" and her premise that denial of death is the central paradigm that creates the conflict between science and religion. The paper discusses how Kubler-Ross uses religious explanations of death to help unify her theory that more social and faith-based initiatives can help a death-denying society accept death as part of life.
From the Paper
"Kubler-Ross's analysis relies on varying different social backgrounds that define death through a religious perspective. In many cases, accounts from different religious organizations and belief systems are used to bring death to the forefront of American society and its denial of death. Kubler-Ross's background in the medical profession often elucidates this problem through the institutions of doctor, family, and social denial of death in her own experiences."

Family Size and Educational Attainment, 2008.
This paper explores the relationship between family size and educational attainment.
1,092 words (approx. 4.4 pages), 8 sources, MLA, $ 38.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
The paper looks at studies that demonstrate how family size has an adverse effect upon the educational attainment of children. The paper then discusses a study that showed that Muslim nuclear families blessed with strong extended family ties can be large ones without their size negatively impacting the educational attainment of young people. The paper concludes that while there does seem to be a correlation between family size and educational attainment, other factors clearly come into play.
From the Paper
"To begin with, it must be noted that the correlation between family size and educational attainment is a phenomenon that can be explained by some (but not all) sociological theories. Structuralism, for one, is a sociological theory (as most students of sociology well know) that holds that people are shaped by the larger society of which they are part. In short, the values, the institutions, and the culture of a society shape the roles and actions individuals will play in life (incidentally, for an interesting comparison of structuralism to individualism within sociological theory, please see Gannon & Freidheim, 877-882)."

Iron Deficiency in Iran, 2008.
This paper discusses social determinations of health and measures to reduce the prevalence of iron deficiency, concentrating on Iran.
1,338 words (approx. 5.4 pages), 10 sources, APA, $ 44.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
In this article, the writer notes that iron deficiency is an issue for developing and industrialized countries. Iron deficiency involves both modifiable risk factors and the social determinants of health. The writer maintains that part of the problem is that measures of iron deficiency are inconsistent while another part of the problem relates to varying combinations of nutrients or just one nutrient being used in isolation. The writer discusses that Iran is a developing country where the prevalence has been heavily reduced, but it is possible that if the determinants of health were used as variables, the prevalence could be eliminated. The writer notes that the nutrition the mother and child receives during the period when the child is six to 12 months of age has implications for the entire life span but must be situated in terms of the overall conditions of socioeconomic position and the culture.

From the Paper
"Iron deficiency is a problem in both developing and industrialized countries. The objective is to demonstrate that whether the issue of irony deficiency is located in the Third World or in affluent nations, it is based in modifiable risk factors. The hypothesis is that the problem with addressing iron deficiency is related to the determinants of health since, if nutritional supplementation is aimed only at the first priority, then entire aspects of the child's development will inevitably be neglected. The research question is: In a country such as Iran where prevalence has been reduced to a moderate level, can that prevalence of iron deficiency be further reduced by using the determinants of health as measures?"

Advertising and Stereotypes, 2008.
A look at the impact of mass media on people's attitudes and behavior.
1,110 words (approx. 4.4 pages), 8 sources, MLA, $ 38.95
»

Abstract
This paper examines the importance of advertising in today's society and analyzes the representation of gender, race, sexual orientation and age in today's TV programs and, in particular, in advertising on TV. The paper argues that gender and racial inequality and stereotyping of race, gender, age and sexual orientation are very much present in today's advertising and furthermore that this serves advertising needs. It also argues that advertising is a powerful tool in the consumerist culture and that many corporations depend heavily on advertising for profit.
From the Paper
"Advertising is very important in today's society, if only simply because it cannot be avoided. Ads are everywhere: in obvious places such as on TV, in movies, on billboards, the Internet, but also can be found in the most unexpected places: on people clothes, cars, etc. Sometimes we are not even aware that something is being advertised. Ads are a major part of mass media and the mass media is important to advertising because it has a great advantage of being able to reach a large number of people in a very short time. Advertising is sophisticated, very well thought through and a lot of money is spent on it. "

Abstract
This paper presents a policy briefly outlining where the province of Ontario is failing single parents on welfare (or, more generally, single parents struggling to survive economically). The paper explores the problem, the nature and history of the issue and the stakeholders involved. It then looks at what the government (at least at the provincial level) can do and what is being done in other (European) jurisdictions. Finally, the paper discusses two possible policy options that hold out significant promise.
Table of Contents:
Abstract

History of the Issue
Stakeholders and Policy Recommendations
Governments and the Issue
Economics and Politics
What other Jurisdictions are Doing
Two Possible Options that Might Work
From the Paper
"In the end, social workers concerned about the rampant phenomenon of single parents in Ontario finding themselves trapped on social welfare can generally agree that something different from the prevailing provincial approach to the issue is needed. First of all, the minimum wage needs to be raised to at least $10 per hour and OW benefits need to be increased, as well. Simply put, ridiculously low wages give people little incentive to leave welfare behind exacerbate the cycle of poverty. Furthermore, child care services need to be implemented in full in this province - and that means money should be put towards new facilities. A huge amount of money is not necessarily required, but if a small percentage of funds allocated for social welfare were instead put into state-funded childcare facilities, that might be just what single parents need in order to re-access the labor force."

Local Food and Community Values, 2008.
This paper discusses the effects of local food systems on our communities.
1,335 words (approx. 5.3 pages), 7 sources, APA, $ 44.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
The paper argues that local food systems have a net positive impact upon our communities in how these systems support local economies, social structures and community values. The paper explains how local food systems play a critical role in fostering the identity of communities in ways that globalized food production and distribution networks simply cannot imitate. The paper therefore demonstrates how global food systems effectively threaten not only local foods systems but also the cultures that are deeply intertwined with those systems.
From the Paper
"Few people would challenge, or even be surprised at, the assertion that humans often define their food systems in terms of locality and culture. Indeed, as humans our food systems have traditionally been closely intertwined with local or regional cultures and identities. Norberg-Hodge et al (2002) contend that this closely interconnection associated with local food systems transcends even the food network and yields many associated benefits"

Self-Image Maintenance and Prejudice, 2008.
This paper explores the extent to which a strong self-image encourages resistance to prejudice.

»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper examines the literature on prejudice and self-image in order to determine how comprehensive the protection given by a strong self-image can be in respect to prejudice. The paper discusses how self-esteem and self-image are separate constructs and examines racism and gender in relation to self-image. The paper also discusses how it is highly probable that a target of prejudice with a strong self-image will be less likely to suffer psychological or emotional harm from prejudice, but he may still feel the effects of prejudice. The paper concludes that it is necessary to engage in further study in which a narrow focus is used to identify the impact of prejudice on a specific population, such as either gender or race.
Outline:
Introduction
Self-Esteem and Self-Image
Racism and Self-Image
Gender and Self-Image
Conclusion
From the Paper
"The study of prejudice and its impact on the individual has been well-documented in the literature. It is recognized that prejudice is both expressed and responded to in multiple forms, suggesting that it is feasibly impossible to prepare for all social interactions in which prejudice is exhibited (Owens, Stryker, & Goodman, 2001; Kernis, 2006). This in turn indicates that the person who is targeted by a display of prejudice is likely to be affected by it, and that the impact that prejudice has upon the person depends upon the type of prejudice displayed and the character of the person who has been targeted by it."

Ethnic Stereotypes in the Movie "Smokin' Aces", 2008.

Abstract
This essay analyzes the use of stereotypes to portray different ethnic groups in the film "Smokin' Aces". The paper relates that the media is able to shape and influence our own perceptions of other people and cultures. The paper further relates that what we can see on the TV and movies produces a very powerful message, as we perceive the media as real even when we see a work of fiction. Additionally, the paper notes that the media is filled with stereotypes and stereotypical images. The essay then concentrates on three ethnic groups present in "Smokin' Aces", Italians, white Americans and African-Americans, and shows that they are portrayed through stereotypical images. The Italians are represented as mafia bosses, white men are good guys, while African American characters are criminals and sidekicks. The writer concludes that the construction of characters sends strong messages of racial ideology despite all the efforts put towards eliminating the racism.
From the Paper
"One of the first characters introduced in the move is an Italian Primo Sparazza. Sparazza is a mafia boss, a stereotypical role for an Italian in media. He is wanted by FBI and is known to be behind many crimes but, as usual, cannot be connected directly to any of them. As such he is untouchable, powerful person behind the mafia steel curtain. We do not know much about him, but some ideas that fit in the overall male Italian- mobster stereotypic character can be inferred from the plot. Thus, it is possible that Sparazza was an Italian immigrant since the FBI agents are tracing his illegal activities to 1950s. He made crime his career climbing up to a level of one of the American mafia bosses. As such, he is a typical non-American who presents a danger to American society and way of life."

All-Inclusive Vacations as a Sociological Phenomenon, 2008.
An analysis of the sociological phenomena that are evident with all-inclusive vacations.

»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper looks at the all-inclusive vacation as something other than tourism, or travel as it was once known. It shows how these vacations can tell a good deal about what the buyer expects in a culture of consumerism and what capitalists have learned the consumer wants. The paper makes use of critical theory in order to analyze the sociological phenomena that are evident with all-inclusive vacations. The paper maintains that there are things quite wrong with this phenomenon that are explained with the help of critical theory.
Table of Contents:
Introduction
Race and Class
Selling Fantasy
Power
Concluding Remarks
From the Paper
"As mentioned, an all-inclusive vacation should protect the consumer from anything to upset previous notions of a place or what a vacation should be about. The all-inclusive vacation keeps consumers within one kind of consciousness that is the one known at home. There is little to promote interest in the place or places to which they travel. The vacationer is a transplanted person able to afford the location and activities that are laid on. Perhaps there will be a comment on what was served for sinner, a sun burn, or a comment on whether or not it is 'safe' to venture away from a resort of other institution in which the all-inclusive package has placed them."

Abstract
In this article, the writer notes that Franklin D. Roosevelt's financially recuperative "New Deal" and the Sheppard-Towner Act of 1921 during the Great Depression helped the American public back on the road to health. The writer points out that the Social Security Act of 1935 was sadly Roosevelt's last efforts to establish universal financial and health security. The writer discusses that another try at providing universal health came in 1965 with Medicare/Medicaid, but by this time until the present, however, history, economics and politics would be complicit in impeding a utopian vision of "affordable health care for all." This paper describes each program in terms of eligibility criteria, funding approval process, appeal procedures and scope of devices and services funded.

"Medicaid is a federal program administered at the state level that aids individuals with low-income, insufficient or no health insurance. Health care needs are paid directly to care providers, in whole or partially subsidized."

The Identity of Jamaica and Bermuda, 2008.
This paper explains that the national identity of Jamaica and Bermuda is complicated and troubled by a history of colonialism, race, sugar and slavery.
1,390 words (approx. 5.6 pages), 10 sources, APA, $ 46.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper explains that, from a legacy of colonialism, Jamaica and Bermuda have carved out a more independent path through which they are better able to express an authentic local culture and identity. The author points out that, while Jamaica is the island with actual independence, Bermuda appears to be developing the more versatile and durable society. The paper states that the education system of Jamaica is still hampered by colonialism insofar as external imagery and tourist considerations actually determine what is taught to Jamaican school children so a citizenry is created, which will behave appropriately in the presence of white tourists. The author underscores that the Bermudans are moving towards eradicating the island's over-dependence upon tourist dollars although its education system and no doubt its society remains not wholly dissimilar to the systems of Great Britain.
From the Paper
"Continuing onward, the racial legacy of colonialism manifests itself in many ways. For one thing, there is evidence (at least in the popular press) that racial identification has grown stronger in Bermuda in recent years; unfortunately, the pyramidal arrangement of historic Bermudan society (one in which certain groups are associated with power) has lingered: as one example, it is noteworthy that a Caucasian British subject was chosen to head Bermuda's judiciary over many other qualified candidates - at least some of whom were non-white Bermudans."

Health Promotion, 2008.

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper explains that the social determinants of health are the mediating processes between the economic and social conditions in a society that influence whether people stay healthy or become ill. The author reviews the social determinants of health: poverty, class, gender, race, ethnicity and the weakening of working class power. The paper relates that the materialist, neo-materialist and the social comparison approaches have been developed to explain how political, economic and social forces shape health and health inequalities. The author explores the work of several health promotion organizations that believe that health is a fundamental human right.The paper underscores that the attainment of the highest possible level of health is a most important world-wide goal, which requires the action of many other social and economic sectors to support community groups that do not have the resources needed to ensure their health
From the Paper
"Advocates also need to focus on primary health care since it is based in economic conditions as well as the political and sociocultural features of an area. Primary health care is fully based on the determinants of health such as education, proper nutrition, adequate water and basic sanitation, child health care, and prevention and control over disease. Governments should be lobbied so that they implement national policies and strategies to develop and maintain primary care as one aspect of the national health system."
