Drug Use and Treatment of Hispanic Immigrants
[ send me this paper ]
A 24 page paper discussing the influence of culture on addiction treatment. This paper includes a 5-page section on clinical implications not contained in the shorter paper of the same name. Much of the research into drug use among Hispanics of the past has identified Hispanics only by cultural identification, without giving a clear picture of those cultural matters that can influence whether a Mexican American chooses to seek help in breaking an addiction. There are several aspects of the Mexican American culture that prevent Mexican Americans from moving along the same path of addiction resolution that individuals of other ethnic groups navigate in similar journeys. This paper discusses some of these points, including acculturization and the tradition of relying on family groups in times of crisis. Counselors need to realize that Hispanics who enter treatment likely already have used these social structures without success. Includes an abstract and an outline. Bibliography lists 19 sources.

Economic Development in Cuba
[ send me this paper ]
7 pages. Revolutionary regimes in
Cuba have not proven themselves to be very effective in achieving
economic development. The majority of this lies in the fact that
the United States embargo continues, which greatly cripples the
Cuban economy in some ways. However, there are industries in
which Cuba has apparently found a niche which can help to bolster
their sagging economy of recent years. Bibliography lists 9
sources.

Eight Factors Of Irony And Complexity: Influence Upon Cycles In Mexican History
[ send me this paper ]
8 pages in length. Much like Murphy's Law by virtue of its facilitating effect for change but at the same time more comprehensive in nature, the eight factors of irony and complexity have proven to be an instrumental force in the formation and subsequent progress - or failure - of man's entire growth and transformation as a species. While Murphy's Law is based upon what people have already experienced and therefore warn against, the eight factors of irony and complexity serve as the precursor for those events prior to man's ability to experience either the consequences or benefit of said event. Mexican history is no stranger to this truth, with corn playing an integral role in myriad cycles. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
