Perceived Discrimination In Ancestral Homeland: Filipino Nikkeijins And The Dynamics Of Migrant Resistance, Ron Bridget Vilog
Perceived Discrimination In Ancestral Homeland: Filipino Nikkeijins And The Dynamics Of Migrant Resistance, Ron Bridget Vilog
Asia-Pacific Social Science Review
The Immigration Control Act of 1990 formally allowed the nikkeijins or descendants of Japanese nationals who were born in foreign countries to enter Japan and work without restriction. Following the rapid migration of Latin American nikkeis, thousands of Filipino nikkeijins had taken advantage of their “ethnic right” by working in Japanese factories. In spite of the privileges bestowed upon them, issues about discrimination, prejudice, and even exploitation had been reported in various fora. This paper examines the reconfiguration of ethnic self-identification as Filipino nikkeijins face social discrimination in Japan. The narratives of second and third generation Filipino nikkeijins reveal that …
Chapters Of The Civil Jury, Doug R. Rendleman
Chapters Of The Civil Jury, Doug R. Rendleman
Doug Rendleman
The civil jury, though constitutionally protected by the seventh amendment, has remained a controversial institution throughout much of Anglo-American legal history. Our romantic ideals are questioned by critics who view the civil jury as prejudiced and unpredictable; proponents note the sense of fairness and "earthy wisdom" gained by community participation in the legal process. This debate surfaces in the process of accommodation between certain substantive goals of the law and the pre-verdict and post-verdict procedural devices courts have employed to control the jury. In this article, Professor Rendleman examines this conflict in his three "chapters" involving racially motivated discharges of …
Experiences Of Discrimination Among Arab Americans And Muslim Americans Post-9/11 Attacks, Lenna Jawdat
Experiences Of Discrimination Among Arab Americans And Muslim Americans Post-9/11 Attacks, Lenna Jawdat
Theses, Dissertations, and Projects
This study explored the experiences of discrimination among Arab Americans and Muslim Americans in the United States following the attacks of September 11, 2001. Although previous research has documented discrimination among these groups, many of these are quantitative studies that fail to capture their qualitative experiences. Twenty-eight Arab American and Muslim American adults completed a mixed methods survey which asked respondents how the events of 9/11 impacted their sense of safety and security. Additionally, they were asked to explore their experiences of discrimination since 9/11 and to speak about their experiences of media bias. The findings indicate that many Arab …

Jewish Cultural Aspirations, Ruth Weisberg
The Jewish Role in American Life: An Annual Review
In the late nineteenth century in Europe and to some extent in the United States, the Jewish upper middle class—particularly the more affluent families—began to enter the cultural spheres of public life, especially in major cities such as Vienna, Berlin, Paris, New York, and London. While many aspects of society were closed to them, theater, the visual arts, music, and art publication were far more inviting, especially if they involved challenging aspects of modernity that might be less attractive to Gentile society. Jews had far less to lose in embracing new forms of expression, and they were very attracted to …
Organizationally Mandated Diversity Training: Participants’ Perceptions At A Southeastern State University, Michelle Lynn Hurley
Organizationally Mandated Diversity Training: Participants’ Perceptions At A Southeastern State University, Michelle Lynn Hurley
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
An amplified emphasis on global competency and a projected demographic shift toward an increasingly diverse population necessitates that businesses and organizations prepare adequately to remain competitive and effective. Training to enhance employees' multicultural competence is often used by organizations to address these impending changes; however, there is little research documenting the degree to which these trainings are effective. Using archival training evaluation data, the purpose of this study was to examine participant estimations of the effectiveness of one such training and also to determine if participant demographic variables including gender, age, ethnicity, sexual orientation, and employee classification (faculty or staff) …

Suturing A Torn System: How To Reduce Discrimination Against Hiv-Positive Medical Care Workers, Scott M. Engstrom
Suturing A Torn System: How To Reduce Discrimination Against Hiv-Positive Medical Care Workers, Scott M. Engstrom
Scott M Engstrom
Although HIV has qualified as a disability under the Americans with Disabilities Act (“ADA”) ever since the Supreme Court’s 1998 decision in Bragdon v. Abbott, the ADA’s “direct threat” defense has been broadly used and interpreted expansively. Although many sub-categories of individuals with HIV have meritorious legal issues that demand analysis, the complexities of the medical profession coupled with HIV’s stigma have rendered confidentiality and disclosure issues ripe in that field. For the purpose of this note I have grouped together all individuals who provide medical services into a class which I call “Medical Care Workers” or “MCWs.” More specifically, …

Academic Achievement And Attitudes Of Arab-American Immigrants, Nour Fakhoury
Academic Achievement And Attitudes Of Arab-American Immigrants, Nour Fakhoury
Master's Theses and Doctoral Dissertations
There is no single predictor of economic success in modern America more than one’s education level. There has been much empirical research examining immigrant students and academic achievement, in order to provide the necessary support to increase the likelihood of academic success. However, there has been little research to investigate the case of Arab-American immigrants. The influx of immigrants from Arab countries that have recently experienced much instability due to war and conflict, and the increased negative visibility of Arabs post-September 11, make it vital to examine the experiences of Arab immigrant students and how their experiences affect their academic …

The Relationship Between Loneliness, Ethnic Identity, And Dimensions Of Membership Across First, Second, And Third Generation Americans, Rajni Sharma
Colonial Academic Alliance Undergraduate Research Journal
The current study sought to explore the relationship between loneliness, ethnic identity, and dimensions of membership across generational statuses in the United States. One hundred ninety-four first, second, and third generation Americans participated in an online study which questioned the degree to which they participated in their native culture, their level of loneliness, and their experiences of discrimination, perceived inclusion, and how positively they view their ethnic group. As hypothesized, the more first generations participated in their native culture, the less loneliness they experienced. The more second generation Americans were educated about their native culture from their parents, the less …
Research Report: A Profile Of Racial Vilification Complaints Lodged With The New South Wales Anti-Discrimination Board, Luke Mcnamara
Research Report: A Profile Of Racial Vilification Complaints Lodged With The New South Wales Anti-Discrimination Board, Luke Mcnamara
Luke McNamara
In 1989 New South Wales became the first State in Australia to legislate against racial vilification. The introduction of this legislation, and discussion of similar provisions in other jurisdictions, rekindled debates about the legitimacy of legal limits on hate speech. However, little is known about the practical operation of antivilification laws. This report presents the results of a survey of more than 160 racial vilification complaints handled by the New South Wales Anti-Discrimination Board from 1993 to 1995. The profile of the legislation in practice presented here provides a valuable empirical foundation for critical assessment of anti-vilification provisions and of …

An Economic Theory Of Discrimination, Nadeem Naqvi
An Economic Theory Of Discrimination, Nadeem Naqvi
Nadeem Naqvi
Discrimination involves rewarding or penalizing persons based on their respective social identities rather than on their merits or qualifications. All explanations of discrimination, including contributions in Becker (1957) and Akerlof and Kranton (2000), ascribe a utility function to each individual. This is deeply problematic, because I prove that assigning to individuals binary preferences or their utility function representations entails the impossibility of interpersonal social-identity diversification, rendering all persons in society indistinguishable by identity. Instead, I identify individuals with non-binary preferences, and prove the existence of endogenous social diversification in a Pareto optimal state that exhibits discrimination.
The When (And How) Of Intergroup Competition And Discrimination: Distinguishing The Contributions Of Competitive Perceptions And Motivations, Matthew A. Maxwell-Smith
The When (And How) Of Intergroup Competition And Discrimination: Distinguishing The Contributions Of Competitive Perceptions And Motivations, Matthew A. Maxwell-Smith
Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository
A new framework is proposed to examine the effects of intergroup competition on discrimination by assessing the influence of participants’ subjective construal of potentially competitive events. It posits that competitive intergroup perceptions (CIP; the perception that one’s ingroup and another group(s) are attempting to gain a reward or desired outcome at the expense of each other) and competitive intergroup motivations (CIM; the desire for one’s ingroup to acquire more of a reward than the other group(s)) are related but distinct constructs. This distinction implies that CIP and CIM should be strongly related, but not to the point of suggesting they …
Equality Standards For Health Insurance Coverage: Will The Mental Health Parity And Addiction Equity Act End The Discrimination?, Ellen M. Weber
Equality Standards For Health Insurance Coverage: Will The Mental Health Parity And Addiction Equity Act End The Discrimination?, Ellen M. Weber
Ellen M. Weber
Congress enacted the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act in 2008 to end discriminatory health insurance coverage for persons with mental health and substance use disorders in large employer health plans. Adopting a comprehensive regulatory approach akin to other civil rights laws, the Parity Act requires “equity” in all plan features, including cost-sharing, durational limits and, most critically, the plan management practices that are used to deny many families medically necessary behavioral health care. Beginning in 2014, all health plans regulated by the Affordable Care Act must also comply with parity standards, effectively ending the second-class insurance status of …
