Race, Gender, And The Status-Quo:Asian And African American Relations In A Hollywood Film, Clarence Spigner Jan 1994

Race, Gender, And The Status-Quo:Asian And African American Relations In A Hollywood Film, Clarence Spigner

Explorations in Ethnic Studies

Hollywood films play a significant role in constructing and reinforcing inter-ethnic tensions through negative representations of Asian Americans and African Americans. While white males are most often depicted as smart and romantically desirable, thereby reinforcing an ideology of white male dominance, Asian Americans and Blacks are typically diminished to demeaning and secondary status. Thi[this] article explores these racist steretotypes [stereotypes] in director Michael Cimino's 19985[1985] film Year of the Dragon (as well as a number of other Hollywood films), arguing that such race and gender-specific imagery is functional; for while it promotes race/gender stereotypes, it also serves to rationalize white …


Family, Gender, And Population Policy: Views From The Middle East [Arabic], Jodi Jacobson, Barbara L. Ibrahim, Carla Makhlouf Obermeyer Jan 1994

Family, Gender, And Population Policy: Views From The Middle East [Arabic], Jodi Jacobson, Barbara L. Ibrahim, Carla Makhlouf Obermeyer

Poverty, Gender, and Youth

This paper explores the relevance of international debates to the realities of the Middle East, an important but understudied region that has often been subject to stereotyping. The region’s wealth of traditions and diverse contemporary experience offer insights to those who venture beyond the surface appearance. This paper provides a broad introduction to the connections between family, gender, and population policy in the Middle East. It is based on studies by a diverse group of Middle East scholars and the discussions they generated in Cairo at an international symposium sponsored by the Population Council in February 1994. The paper was …


Gender Inequalities And Demographic Behavior: Ghana/Kenya, Anastasia J. Gage, Wamucii Njogu Jan 1994

Gender Inequalities And Demographic Behavior: Ghana/Kenya, Anastasia J. Gage, Wamucii Njogu

Poverty, Gender, and Youth

Ghana and Kenya were the first countries in sub-Saharan Africa whose governments recognized the potentially detrimental effects of rapid population growth on economic development and, as a result, adopted and implemented national population policies. This is one of three reports on the relationship between gender equity, family structure and dynamics, and the achievement of reproductive choice that was prepared by the Population Council for the 1994 International Year of the Family and the 1994 International Conference on Population and Development. These reports provide critical reviews of the relationship between gender inequality and demographic behavior in three demographically significant, culturally distinct …

Gender Inequalities And Demographic Behavior: India, Sonalde Desai Jan 1994

Gender Inequalities And Demographic Behavior: India, Sonalde Desai

Poverty, Gender, and Youth

As India prepares for the 1994 International Conference on Population and Development (ICPD), it is clear that the country’s population policy faces a number of serious challenges. Although India was the first country to announce an official family planning program in 1952, its population has grown from 361 million in 1951 to 844 million in 1991. This is one of three reports on the relationship between gender equity, family structure and dynamics, and the achievement of reproductive choice prepared by the Population Council for the 1994 International Year of the Family and the 1994 ICPD.

Gender, Crime, And The Criminal Law Defenses, Deborah W. Denno Jan 1994

Gender, Crime, And The Criminal Law Defenses, Deborah W. Denno

Faculty Scholarship

This Article attempts to explain some of the disparity in criminality between males and females by analyzing the results of the “Biosocial Study,” one of this country's largest longitudinal studies of biological, psychological, and sociological predictors of crime. Section II analyzes the literature and research on gender differences in crime. Section III describes the Biosocial Study and its results, noting the gender differences in the prevalence and prediction of crime and the inability of any one factor to be a strong predictor of crime. Section IV considers whether gender differences warrant disparate types of punishment or treatment within the criminal …

Sexuality Research: Untested Gender Assumptions Amid Paradigm Shifts, Donna J Walker Jan 1993

Sexuality Research: Untested Gender Assumptions Amid Paradigm Shifts, Donna J Walker

UNLV Retrospective Theses & Dissertations

Content analysis of 803 sexuality research abstracts selected from Sociological Abstracts published from January 1974 to August 1992 answers three questions: (1) Are there trends in sexuality research? (2) Is there a paradigm shift? and (3) Is gender differentiation present? Research between 1973 and 1991 displayed a consistent division between the positivist "nature" paradigm and the interactionist "nurture" paradigm. The proportion of studies which attempt to be non-gender specific has declined annually while researchers have consistently neglected to study male sexuality. Although there has been little change in basic principles, there have been trends in interpretations of research data. Conclusions …

Feminist Theory, Professional Ethics, And Gender-Related Distinctions In Attorney Negotiating Styles, Lloyd Burton, Larry Farmer, Elizabeth D. Gee, Lorie Johnson Jul 1991

Feminist Theory, Professional Ethics, And Gender-Related Distinctions In Attorney Negotiating Styles, Lloyd Burton, Larry Farmer, Elizabeth D. Gee, Lorie Johnson

Journal of Dispute Resolution

Historically, law has been a male-dominated profession; only recently has it become possible to consider the woman's experience and perspective with respect to law practice generally and negotiation practice in particular. This paper addresses two gender-related issues: first, are there identifiable gender-related distinctions in the negotiating behavior of attorneys? Second, if there are discoverable differences, are they attributable to ethical perspectives linked to gender? In addressing these questions, this article begins by reviewing the literature on feminist theory, moral development, and negotiation theory. These themes are tied together in a review of the small but growing literature on negotiation ethics. …
