1.INTRODUCCIÓN
Para determinar la causa de la pobreza, no es acertado relacionarlo con una causa económica ya que hay otros aspectos que determinan esta situación como es, la ausencia de una vivienda y la finalización de los estudios en una etapa prematura lo que conlleva que exista dificultades para mantenerse en el mercado laboral
Los datos estadísticos sobre la pobreza en el mundo muestran el aumento de las desigualdades como refleja el reciente informe del PNUD 1 del 2013 se destaca que “hay suficiente riqueza para todos, pero un ser humano de cada tres no dispone de las instalaciones sanitarias más elementales, uno de cada cuatro no tienen electricidad, uno de cada siete vive en un barrio de chabolas, uno de cada ocho tiene hambre y uno de cada nueve no dispone de agua potable”.
El siguiente fragmento, extraído del Informe de la ONU de 2005 sobre la situación social del mundo, ilustra esta situación: “El 80% del producto interno bruto mundial pertenece a los 1.000 millones de personas que viven en el mundo desarrollado, el 20% restante se reparte entre los 5.000 millones de personas que viven en los países en desarrollo. Mientras no se resuelva este dilema de la desigualdad, seguirá siendo difícil alcanzar la justicia social y unas mejores condiciones de vida para todas las personas, y todas las comunidades, los países y regiones seguirán siendo vulnerables a los trastornos sociales, políticos y económicos” (ONU, 2005).
En la actualidad, los Servicios Sociales Municipales, han desarrollado determinados programas para que las personas que estén viviendo en esta situación puedan incorporarse en la sociedad, aunque el día día muestra muchos casos que tienen grandes dificultades para progresar hacia la integr...

The Carrillo Adobe is in a dire situation. It has not only fallen into disrepair from the many years of weather and use by so many individuals, but by visitors and citizens have been less that kind and considerate of its age and the prominence that it deserves. After Carrillo’s death her house was given to three of her daughters, Marta, Juana, and Felicidad. Then her belongings were distributed between all of her children. In the first decade after her death her different children each occupied the house at different times. One of her daughters, Juana and her husband ran the home as a tavern. They then converted the adobe into the first post office in the town of Santa Rosa. After her daughters no longer had a need for the adobe it was turned into a trading post where numerous individuals...
Juveniles are being taught that in order to have a nice car, branded cloths and the house of their dreams, by getting into an expensive mortgage, they have to be an employee of a huge corporation. In addition, they have to undergo to a prestigious school, study hard, have excellent grades in order to become popular and respectable in the world. However, many people would not become those super leaders, but these majority of people have a great role in the capitalism society of the US. As Gatto says, “We buy televisions, and then we buy the things we see on the television. We buy computers, and then we buy the things we see on the computer. We buy $150 sneakers whether we need them or not, and when they fall apart too soon we buy another pair” (38). Such results are in part of a wrong education that teenagers have received trough many decades. In addition, Gatto highlights that modern educational system has been working in a six basic functions methods that makes the system strong and unbreakable: The adjustable function, indulge students to respect authorities. The integrating function, which builds the personality of the students as similar to each other as possible. The diagnostic and directive function, which allows a school to set permanent scholar grades in order to determinate his or her future role in society. The differentiating function, which gives to the student a good education and after his or her role is diagnosed, they prevent any educational progress. The selective function, function that the system has used to prevent academic growth for the non-selected students. The propaedeutic function, which works in the selection of specific groups of intellectual adults to keep perpetuating the system all over again making it a continuous sequence. (Gatto 34). Gatto’s facts revealed the survival of the educational system for decades,

The economic successes of many of these businesses are undeniable in one factory alo...

El Recado es un cuento de la esperanza y amor. La protagonista viene a visita Martin, pero el no esta en su casa. Entonces ella esperas en peldano, y esperanza que el aparece pronto. Esperanza es una palabra muy importante en el cuento. La palabra es usado directamente tres veces en la obra 26, 31, y 39. Tambien en el principio de el cuento todo es de un afecto sensual. Mientras ella esta en el peldano vea el jardin de Martin. Da caracteristicas humanos (personificacion) a los flores en el jardin ( 6-7), estos caracteristicas como honesto y graves probablamente tambien de su amante. Luego ella hace una comparacion directa entre el y el jardin “Todo el jardin es solido, es como tu, tiene una reciedumbre que inspira confianza.” Este oracion no solamente tiene un simil, pero tambien ayuda en mostrando la comparacion a un mujer de un hombre. El hombre es personificado con palabras de fuerza, mientras todo el cuento muestra una mujer debil.
Every individual has encountered social issues within a community. A social issue is often the consequence of factors extending beyond an individual 's control and local geographical environment. Social issues have evolved over time, ranging from underage drinking to gay marriage. What all social issues have in common is the affect that these issues have on a community. These problems point to the lack of balance and inequality which is a law of nature. History has proved that equality cannot be achieved on a physical level, but the idea of equality is still alive. Throughout, my paper I will discuss interrelation between discrimination, poverty, health, and violence. I will also explore their impact on the individual social issues.
In today’s society, schools in wealthy communities are better than those in poor communities, higher income schools are simply better at preparing their students for their future. In the reading “The Banking Concept Of Education As An Instrument Of Oppression” by Paulo Freire, he believes that teachers are depositing information into their students. He states that there are two educational systems, the “banking concept” is when teachers are filling their students up with information but the students aren’t fully understanding the material. On the other hand, the “problem posing concept” is when the teacher lets the students communicate with each other. It opens the classroom to a learning environment. Especially when students are more comfortable enough to ask the teacher a question. Esentionally he prefers the problem posing concept. Futhermore, “Social Class and The Hidden Curriculum Of Work” by Jean Anyon an educator at Rutgers University, Newark. She researches how students of different economic backgrounds are interacting with school work and teacher interaction in their elementary schools. Also, she supports her research by looking at the various ways public schools provide particular types of knowledge and educational experiences of the different social classes.
There are many perception and judgement toward “social problems”. Henshel (1990) argues that social problems are social factors that adversely impact significant numbers of individuals in a similar way, but not all stressful conditions defined as social problems (pp. v-4). According to Moulder (2000) social problems are socially constructed by interaction of people with another in society as they define something as a problem and how they will regconize nature of the problem (p. 3). Social problems are also refer to behavior and condition that fail to comply with existing norms and values found in society (Long, 2012).
In this Film Reaction paper will be about the documentary FOOD INC on how policies have affected human rights as well into international. The social problem is often our starting point as social workers, it is our awareness of some global problem that leads us to take an interest in international social work. As well on how international policies and on how our government is. We are expected to apply our strategies to make this world a better place.
Social policy is widely seen to include policy and programmes which aims at dealing with income security and income redistribution as well as well being, education and social services that support individual’s quality of life in the communities. Economic activities by the government and authority bodies such as social groups, charities and local associations bring about the material means to promote and encourage healthy economy. Social welfare is not only determined by the government services as it includes the way families take responsibility for their own welfare such as solving their own problems through their efforts and hard work to earn income that would sustain them. Also the contributions made by the Religious bodies for example tite payment in church and specialised institution they provide for the elderly, mentally ill and orphans is one of the means welfare of people is met (Titmuss 1947, p.30-31). Social policy can include a number of purposes; it can help to distribute resources among members of a country to ensure that good standards of living are maintained, It can shape individuals social and economic behaviours, it can alter
There are three main theories of sociology; functionalism, conflict theory and symbolic interactionism. This paper will focus on two of those theories, functionalism and conflict theory. The objective is to delineate the assumptions of two out of the three theoretical perspectives and apply these assumptions to an analysis of social stratification. How this will be accomplished will be by comparing and contrasting their assumptions and by analyzing the two theories affect on social stratification. Then I will state my opinion on which of the two better fits my personal sociological views. Functionalism is many people's way to view the world sociologically. It states clearly that the objectivity of the researcher is necessary and can be accomplished. There are three main points, which make up a functionalist theory on sociological expression. The first point is that culture is made up of interacting, interdependent parts. Each of these parts has a function in maintaining the society as a system on the whole. The second point states that shared values and expectations(or beliefs) among the members of the society help hold the society together. The third point states that these systems have a need for stability and a need to try to keep all the parts working together congruously in a sort of system. Social change in this system is uncommon, and when it does happen, it is a very gradual change. Conflict theory is centered on the tension, or struggle that goes on in everyday life. There are many different parts, which make up the conflict theorist's view on the sociological perspective. The first main part is that society promotes general differences in wealth, power, and prestige. Wealth...

... in the new environment and fully embrace the socio-economic and political aspects of the new environment. Nevertheless, this paper has refuted the fact that one may completely forget the social conditions of their home country by permanently living in another country. In conclusion, living in another country involves change. However, the change is never permanent and is only oriented towards the interest that made one move into another country.
The problem is the occurrence of a person or several people in an alley or a dilemma, there are many aspects of the problem, political and social and personal. In this paper, I will discuss the social problems and their definitions and stages. The definition of social problems changed over time because the problems that have occurred in the past may not be congruent with what is happening now because of the evolution of time and the difference of individuals living in society. Social problems are the general factors that affect and damage society.
Las empresas tienen un rol fundamental para el crecimiento de una comunidad y generan a su vez la creacion de riquezas, el crecimiento tecnológico y el desarrollo. Hoy en día las empresas buscan integrar en su organización la responsabilidad social que tiene el objetivo de apoyar a la comunidad en la resolución de problemas sociales, ambientales y económicos. La Responsabilidad Social Empresarial, como menciona Gonzalo Vargas Forero en su escrito Responsabilidad social empresarial, Ciudadania y Desarrollo, se define como un conjunto de políticas y acciones que las empresas adoptan de manera voluntaria para contribuir a la sociedad, proteger a la naturaleza y mantener buenas relaciones con los agentes interesados en ellas.
