Session 2 theoretical family perspectives
The document discusses the development of family policy and legislation in the UK over the past 100 years. Key acts and reports that shaped the modern welfare state include the Poor Law Amendment Act of 1834, William Beveridge's 1942 report which led to the NHS and welfare benefits, and the Children Act of 1989. Sociological perspectives that have influenced understandings of the family include functionalism, Marxism, and feminism. Family theories such as Bowlby's attachment theory and Bronfenbrenner's ecological systems theory also provide frameworks for analyzing the relationship between children, families and their environments.
Familydisorganization 150903062335-lva1-app6891
The document discusses family disorganization and its causes and effects. It defines family as a group of two or more related individuals living together. Family disorganization refers to a breakdown in the family system due to factors like loss of role models, parental overburdening, and conflicts between family members. This can lead to a loss of social controls and increase criminal and antisocial behavior. Causes of family disorganization include unemployment, poverty, lack of communication, and domestic violence. Effects involve mental health issues, low self-esteem, and risky behaviors in children. Improving rules, roles, and rights within families can help address family disorganization.
double standard final
This document discusses various double standards faced by women. It outlines how women are described differently than men for the same actions in both the workplace and home. In the workplace, women tend to be steered towards certain stereotypical careers like teaching or nursing, while men dominate fields like engineering. At home, women are often expected to be caretakers and homemakers, while fathers are seen as head of the household. The media exacerbates these issues by portraying women primarily based on their sexuality and focusing on their appearance rather than accomplishments.
Juvenile delinquency
This document defines key terms related to juvenile delinquency. It defines juvenile delinquency as any offense considered a crime under legal codes committed by a juvenile under 18. A juvenile delinquent refers to a child under 18 who has committed an offense under Philippine law. A child at risk is one vulnerable to committing crimes due to personal, family or social circumstances such as abuse, exploitation, abandonment, or living in an area with high criminality.

How to become a part of the next generation of winning brands
The document discusses how to build winning brands through a sustainable business model called "Sustain." It notes that incremental progress is not enough to solve issues like hunger, inequality, and climate change, and that businesses need to leave the world better than they found it. Sustain aims to address issues like poverty, disease, and lack of healthcare through their condom brand, with the goal of empowering women and starting a movement. They plan to provide condoms where women are and address today's most pressing social and environmental issues through intergenerational cooperation.
Divorce, corruption, dowry
There are separate rules for divorce for men and women under Islamic law. For men, divorce is called talaq and is easily obtained. For women, divorce is called khula and is typically more difficult to obtain. There is a waiting period required between the three times a man can declare divorce according to the Quran.
Social marketing campaign dowry
This document discusses dowry practices in Pakistan and proposes a campaign to promote dowry-free marriages. Some key points:
1) Dowry (jahez) involves money and gifts brought by the bride's family, but it is not an Islamic practice and can lead to abuse and violence against women who don't bring sufficient dowry.
2) The proposed campaign would target parents and students to change norms and behaviors around dowry, focusing first on urban then rural areas of KPK province.
3) Challenges include financial constraints and resistance from traditional parts of society, but support from scholars and a spirit of social change are opportunities. The perceived benefits of dowry-free marriages include peace
Is Family is An Organization
1) The document discusses how families and organizations are similar in that they are both managed by leaders with unique responsibilities.
2) It argues that in both families and organizations, all people must be valued and heard, and leaders should practice conflict management to build trust and relationships.
3) The author believes great leaders are born and shaped by their upbringing and experiences, not just taught, and that caring about employees/family and having emotional intelligence are signs of strong leadership.

Marriage in Canada: Purposes and Legal Issues
Social scientists study marriage from different perspectives to understand its common purpose. Sociologists view it through structural functionalism, seeing marriage as perpetuating social norms and roles. Anthropologists use systems theory, arguing marriage provides pair-bonding for survival. Psychologists apply social exchange theory, viewing marriage as a tradeoff where individuals seek benefits and minimize costs. While modern marriages vary, laws govern the legal institution, requiring licenses and defining eligible partners and rights.

Sociology notes
This document discusses several topics related to families in the UK, including views from both conservatives and their critics on issues like benefits cuts, bedroom taxes, and policies regarding child intervention. It also examines declining marriage rates and the rise in cohabitation and divorce. Conservatives are criticized for policies that hurt the poor, while their supporters argue measures like tax breaks could encourage more marriage. Factors discussed as influencing family trends include rising costs, career priorities, tolerance of alternatives to marriage, and women's increased independence. Risks of cohabitation and divorce mentioned include family instability and children facing difficulties.
Equality policy naike godelet gasana
This document summarizes the UK Equality Act of 2010. It established protected characteristics including age, disability, gender, pregnancy, race, religion, sex, and sexual orientation. Public authorities and those exercising public functions must eliminate discrimination based on protected characteristics, advance equality of opportunity, and foster good relations between people. They must also remove or minimize disadvantages for people with protected characteristics. The Equality Act permits treating some groups better to comply with its duties, but does not allow conduct otherwise prohibited in the act, such as breaching non-discrimination rules. It compares the UK's Equality Act to laws in the USA regarding protected characteristics and focus areas.

Jaseem
Indirect taxes are paid by one person but the burden is shared partly or wholly by another person, such as sales tax and excise duty. Some merits of indirect taxes are that they are convenient to collect, revenue adjusts to economic activity so they are elastic, and they promote social welfare. However, some demerits are that indirect taxes can be regressive in nature, create uncertainty, discourage savings, be uneconomical, inequitable, and have no direct link to the government.
Persons (Private Law)
This document discusses the different types of persons under law - natural and artificial/juridical. Natural persons are human beings, while juridical persons are legal entities like corporations or organizations granted legal status. It outlines several factors that affect a person's legal rights and duties, such as age, sex, marriage status, mental capacity, citizenship status, and death. Juridical capacity refers to a person's basic legal qualification to hold rights, while capacity to act means the ability to perform legal acts; full civil capacity involves possessing both.
Systems thinking requires thinking in systems
Systems thinking requires considering problems holistically by understanding interrelationships and patterns of change rather than isolated parts. It is a discipline for seeing wholes and subtle interconnectedness in living systems. When addressing the rising cost of college tuition, a systems thinking approach is needed to understand how factors like student loan debt, job prospects, and affordability impact individuals and society. Failing to address the root causes with a band-aid approach will only prolong and worsen problems by ignoring important details and cues.
Childprostitutionmarylopeznew
The document discusses the issue of child prostitution in Thailand, which affects an estimated 200,000 children annually. Weak laws and corruption allow the problem to persist for economic and political gain. Poverty, lack of education, and low social views of women and children are among the key causes, while effects include health issues, lost opportunities, and damage to society. Potential solutions like stricter laws and increased education face challenges from costs and lost revenue from the existing system.

The document discusses the issue of child prostitution in Thailand, estimating that 200,000 children, mostly girls, are exploited. Weak laws and corruption allow the problem to continue for economic gain. Poverty, lack of education, and low social views of women and children are cited as leading causes. Effects include health issues, lost education and opportunities for the children, and perpetuation of the cycle that also damages Thailand's society. Potential solutions proposed are stronger law enforcement and providing alternatives through education programs.
Sex in the media
The document discusses differing feminist views on how women's sexuality is portrayed in media. Radical feminism sees women as victims exploited by male desires, while post-feminism sees women in control with empowered sexuality. The UK government is concerned that sexualized content in music videos influences young girls' behavior and risks social issues like teen pregnancy. The government may restrict highly sexual videos to those over 18 if the music industry does not respond to these concerns.
Child prostitution Mary Lopez
Over 200,000 children, mostly girls, are exploited through child prostitution in Thailand, the third highest rate in the world. Weak laws and corruption allow the problem to continue for economic gain. Poverty, lack of education, and societal views of women and children as commodities contribute to the issue. Children face health and developmental problems as a result of the physical and psychological trauma. Non-profits work to prevent child prostitution through education programs that provide alternatives to vulnerable girls.
Thai child prostitution -Mary Lopez
Over 200,000 children, mostly girls, are exploited through child prostitution in Thailand, the third highest rate in the world. Weak laws against sex offenders and corruption among government officials and police allow child prostitution to continue. Poverty is a major driving factor, as families can earn more through selling their daughters into prostitution than they could make in years through regular work. The practice brings significant profits into Thailand's economy but takes a heavy social and health toll on victims through diseases, unwanted pregnancies, and increased suicide rates. Educating girls about alternatives to prostitution could help address the root causes.

Violence and Abuse in Families
Family abuse comes in many forms, including physical, emotional, financial, and sexual abuse. Abuse can happen to people of any age, from children to seniors, and most often occurs at the hands of someone close like a parent, spouse, or other family member. Abuse has significant costs on individuals and society, and changing social attitudes is important for addressing the root causes and reducing its occurrence. Support for victims, education, and social programs can help prevent family abuse.
Domestic violence- A Social Issue
Global issues such as climate change, pandemics, and poverty are interlinked and require cooperation among nations to solve. Each issue affects large numbers of people across borders and concerns most countries. No single government has the power to impose solutions, and market forces alone will not be enough. Domestic violence is a pattern of abusive behavior used to gain power and control over an intimate partner. It is a social issue with historical roots and causes like control issues, jealousy, and traditional beliefs about gender roles. The impacts of domestic violence are wide-ranging from low self-esteem to physical harm. Many countries now have laws and acts against domestic violence to uphold civilians' rights.
Domestic violence
Domestic violence occurs in all societies and affects people from all backgrounds. It can take many forms including physical, sexual, verbal, emotional and economic abuse. Laws have been enacted to help protect victims, especially women who represent the majority of victims. However, domestic violence often goes unreported due to social stigmas. Raising awareness and providing support to all victims is important to address this issue.
Module 3 process
The document outlines the writing process for ESL/EFL students. It includes 5 steps: 1) brainstorming, 2) outlining, 3) rough draft, 4) peer reviewing, and 5) final draft. Each step is described in 1-3 sentences with examples to help students structure and develop their writing.
Juvenile delinquency
Juvenile delinquency is a gateway to adult crime, since a large percentage of criminal careers have their roots in childhood causing serious problems all over the world. Delinquency has always been considered as a social problem over and above the fact that it is a legal problem it is also a psychological problem. Hence to avoid this social evil one has to tackle the complex problem of delinquency from the social psychological and to familial angles.
Although laws regarding Juvenile delinquencies have been formed long since, they are also being changed from time to time. Currently, in all the progressive and civilized countries of the world the laws with regard to the Juvenile delinquents have been changed.
Murder, rape, dacoity, burglary, kidnapping are a few more that add to the rest of it. On the basis of the available statistics, an inference can be drawn that these crimes are on the increasing path.
On the whole, current efforts to fight juvenile delinquency are characterized by the lack of systematic action and the absence of task-oriented and effective social work with both offenders and victims, whether real or potential.

help and I knew I needed it.
Even when I tried to speak
up, I was told to shut up and

WHO Definition
• “Elder abuse is a single or repeated act, or
lack of appropriate action, occurring within
any relationship where there is an
expectation of trust, which causes harm or
distress to an older person. It can be of
various forms: physical,
psychological/emotional, sexual, financial,
or simply reflect intentional or unintentional
neglect.”
Scope of the Problem
• The WHO estimates that the rate of elder abuse
across Canada, the Netherlands, the United
States, Finland, and Great Britain is between 4%
and 6%
• A recently released U.S. nationally
representative sample found that 5.1% of adults
over the age of 60 reported emotional
mistreatment, 5.2% reported financial abuse,
1.6% reported physical mistreatment, and 0.6%
reported sexual mistreatment in the past year
Elder Abuse Legislation
• 1987: The federal Older Americans Act was
amended
– Provides definitions of elder abuse and direct the use of
federal funds
• 2010: The Elder Justice Act
– Reports on activities, accomplishments, and challenges
– Makes recommendations to congressional committees
– Provides states with resources to prevent elder abuse,
increase prosecution of those who mistreat the elderly, and
provide victim assistance
• All U.S. states have enacted legislation authorizing
the use of adult protective services (APS) in cases

Most criminals come from broken homes or experienced abuse as children. Witnessing domestic violence as a child can harm psychosocial development and increase likelihood of continuing the abusive behavior. Early intervention programs that promote resilience can help deter children from joining gangs and using drugs, which often lead to criminal behavior.

Domestic violence-1
Domestic violence is the willful intimidation, physical assault, battery, sexual assault, or other abusive behavior perpetrated by one intimate partner against another as part of a systematic pattern of power and control. It includes physical, psychological, sexual, and emotional abuse. Domestic violence is prevalent in every community regardless of demographics, often accompanied by controlling behavior, and can result in injury, trauma, or death. Signs of domestic abuse may begin subtly with name-calling or possessiveness and intensify over time. The effects of domestic violence are far-reaching, impacting the physical and mental health of victims as well as children, family, and the community.
Violence
Violence is defined by the WHO as intentional use of force that results in injury or harm. Globally, over 1.5 million people die from violence annually. Violence has lifelong health, social, and economic consequences. Violence can be categorized as self-directed, interpersonal, community, and collective. The causes of violence are complex and occur at personal, relationships, community, and societal levels. Approaches to preventing violence include criminal justice, human rights, and public health methods like strengthening relationships, teaching life skills, reducing substance abuse, and limiting access to harmful weapons.
Social issue - Sexual abuse
Sexual abuse and violence are serious social issues that disproportionately impact women and children. The document discusses the definition and forms of sexual abuse, including child sexual abuse, incest, and sexual assault. It provides statistics on the prevalence of sexual abuse, noting that most victims know their abuser and that 1 in 6 boys and 1 in 4 girls will experience sexual abuse by age 18. The document also examines how the media portrays sexual abuse, often using vague language that obscures the severity of abuse. It notes that media coverage frequently focuses on criminal justice aspects rather than prevention. Understanding media influences is important to constructively advocate for victims of sexual abuse.
Domestic Violence
Domestic violence can take many forms including physical, sexual, emotional, economic or psychological abuse used by an intimate partner to maintain power and control over the other. Victims of domestic violence can be anyone in one's family including sisters, brothers, mothers, and fathers. While women ages 20-24 are most at risk, domestic violence often goes unreported and causes homelessness. The document provides information on different types of abuse and advises victims to find safety, get help, and contact authorities.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
