Ageism
[ send me this paper ]
8 pages in length. There are many ideals and attitudes for which North America is considered a precedent setter, not the least of which includes efforts to improve the workplace both personally and professionally, institute stronger health-related laws such as with smoking bans in public establishments, as well as leading the way toward more environmentally-friendly and healthy food through organic farming. However, despite these models of positive progress, North America fails miserably at addressing a fundamental component of any civilized society: respecting and appreciating the elderly. The reality of ageism - defined as "any attitude, action, or institutional structure which subordinates a person or group because of age or any assignment of roles in society purely on the basis of age" (Traxler, 1980, p. 4) - is a prevalent and ongoing social ill throughout North American societies this is manifested in individual conduct, media influence and workforce limitations.

Aggression, Domestic Violence And The Cycle Of Abuse
[ send me this paper ]
6 pages in length. The extent to which mankind behaves in most inhumane ways is both grand and far-reaching; that domestic violence continues to be one of humanity's most despicable acts of aggression speaks to a motivating force based in the fundamentals of patriarchy and gender oppression. Moreover, the prevalence of domestic violence does not end once the abuse stops or the victim has escaped but rather it perpetuates into a cyclical existence that prevents the abused individual from being fully able to break away from the physical and emotional torment. Many times - particularly in the case of childhood victims - this cycle of abuse stays with them into their adult years to be re-enacted with that person's own family. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
