Antarctica - Much Ado About Nothing?, Paul F. Jean, John-Paul Rosario
Antarctica - Much Ado About Nothing?, Paul F. Jean, John-Paul Rosario
Bridgewater Review
Since the Antarctic Treaty came into force in 1961, the signatory states have cooperated in the region and international conflicts have not been allowed to intrude. In Antarctica, politics has indeed made for “strange bedfellows”; included among the major treaty states are the United States, the Soviet Union, the United Kingdom, Argentina and Chile. Yet, Antarctica remains an oasis of stability in spite of the fall of east-west detente, the Falkland/Malvinas Conflict and until recently, a simmering dispute between Chile and Argentina over rights in the Beagle Channel. Recently, however, both external and internal challenges have surfaced which threaten the …

The Elephant And The Mouse: Canada And The United States, John F. Myers, Mary H. Myers
Bridgewater Review
Throughout their history, Canadians have been constantly aware of the Republic to the South. In 1775 the American Revolution spilled over into Canada as the Americans seized Montreal and tried to capture Quebec City. During the War of 1812 Canada received the brunt of American hostility toward Britain, being invaded by the United States at various points along the border, particularly along the New York State frontier. Although successful in repelling the Americans, Canada became very sensitive to her own weakness as contrasted to the growing power of the United States.
Completing The Missing Link: The Economic Impact Of I-495 On Southeastern Massachusetts, Glenn Miller
Completing The Missing Link: The Economic Impact Of I-495 On Southeastern Massachusetts, Glenn Miller
Bridgewater Review
The long-anticipated final link of Boston’s outer beltway, I-495, was opened in southeastern Massachusetts in November of 1982. South Shore residents who watched enviously as Rt. 128 and the North Shore experienced rapid economic growth and all the benefits (and possible drawbacks) of “high-tech” development, can now anticipate some of those changes in the area between Brockton and New Bedford. The catalyst, according to a wide range of indicators, is the completion of Rt. I-495.
It is generally accepted that access to a major highway provides the impetus for economic development and population growth. The full impact of circumferential beltways, …

Feminist Theory And Social Policy Or Why Is Welfare So Hard To Reform?, Dorothy C. Miller
Feminist Theory And Social Policy Or Why Is Welfare So Hard To Reform?, Dorothy C. Miller
The Journal of Sociology & Social Welfare
More than 10 years ago Henry Aaron wrote a classic paper entitled "Why Is Welfare So Hard to Reform?" (1973). This paper answers that question from the perspective of the new discipline of Women's Studies. The author suggests that the use of feminist theories; notably those of Hartsock and Chodorow; can further one's recognition and understanding of male bias in social policy development. Tracing the history of U.S. welfare policies for women and children the analysis provides explanations for the differential treatment of women in the welfare system and the failure of work strategies to increase poor women's economic independence. …

Addressing Socio-Legal Problems: A Unifying Perspective For Social Workers, Raymond Albert
Addressing Socio-Legal Problems: A Unifying Perspective For Social Workers, Raymond Albert
The Journal of Sociology & Social Welfare
Problems where social work and the law overlap have consistently challenged social work professionals, and the challenges promise to continue. The overlap exposes important interdisciplinary issues, which are best addressed when certain conditions are met. The article describes these conditions within the context of a perspective that underlines the interaction between the two fields and structures the professional's approach to these interdisciplinary problems.

Informal Helping Networks And Social Service Changes: A Community Perspective, Charles Hoch, George Hemmens, Rojean Madsen, Wim Wiewel
The Journal of Sociology & Social Welfare
Interviews with 112 household respondents and 58 social service agency directors in three ethnically and racially distinct Chicago neighborhoods provided a comprehensive assessment of -- household helping relationships in a community context. Reliance on informal helping greatly exceeded use of formal agencies at the household level. Households were twice as likely to give help as receive it in a complex variety of ways, while agencies struggled to add new functional programs in a time of retrenchment. What households gave and got did not overlap with agency programs in any coherent way. Further, household respondents and agency directors disagreed in their …
Predictors Of Depressive Symptoms And Unemployed Black Adults, Diane R. Brown, Lawrence E. Gary
Predictors Of Depressive Symptoms And Unemployed Black Adults, Diane R. Brown, Lawrence E. Gary
The Journal of Sociology & Social Welfare
Using data from a probability based survey of unemployed Black adults residing in an urban area, this study explores factors related to the presence of depressive symptoms. Findings indicate that depressive symptoms are less among unemployed persons with higher levels of income, education, religiosity, age and satisfactory social support. Age, however, is the single best predictor of depressive symptoms among unemployed Blacks. There were no significant differences by gender.
The Effect Of Changes In The Federal Disability Programs On State And Local General Assistance Programs, Courtney Scherer Petersen, Eric R. Kingson
The Effect Of Changes In The Federal Disability Programs On State And Local General Assistance Programs, Courtney Scherer Petersen, Eric R. Kingson
The Journal of Sociology & Social Welfare
Since early 1981, there has been a large-scale removal of persons from the SSI and Social Security disability programs as a result of the Social Security Disability Amendments of 1980. This article reports on the findings of a national survey designed to determine whether the removal of persons from the federal disability programs had an impact on state and local General Assistance programs and the extent to which older recipients of General Assistance are in need of long-term income assistance for health and other reasons.
Some states and jurisdictions have noticed an increase in applications as a result of federal …
Issues In Assessing Community Resources For The Leisure-Time Needs Of The Elderly, Jordan I. Kosberg, Juanita L. Garcia
Issues In Assessing Community Resources For The Leisure-Time Needs Of The Elderly, Jordan I. Kosberg, Juanita L. Garcia
The Journal of Sociology & Social Welfare
The growth of leisure-time, following retirement, is potentially problematic for the elderly and can result in such adversities as depression, problem drinking, loneliness, and boredom. Leisure-time resources include recreation, education, volunteerism, training, voluntary associations, familialism, and solitary activities. The use of resources for leisure-time needs of the elderly are influenced by idiosyncratic differences; cultural background, financial resources, geographic variations; and the characteristics of programs and services. There is a need to better prepare individuals for the use of leisure-time. Each community must ensure that leisure-time resources exist and do not exclude any elderly from possible involvement, for either structural, programmatic, …
Demographic Understanding Of Volunteerism, David F. Gillespie, Anthony E. O. King I
Demographic Understanding Of Volunteerism, David F. Gillespie, Anthony E. O. King I
The Journal of Sociology & Social Welfare
A large sample of volunteers from a midwestern city chapter of the American Red Cross were studied to identify demographic correlates of the reasons given for volunteering. The findings suggest that the reasons people give for doing volunteer work are conditioned by their age, sex, and marital status. Implications for volunteer programs and future research are discussed.
The Social Support Networks Of Indochinese Refugees, Peter J. Pecora, Mark W. Fraser
The Social Support Networks Of Indochinese Refugees, Peter J. Pecora, Mark W. Fraser
The Journal of Sociology & Social Welfare
Refugee sponsors and social service staff of agencies serving Indochinese refugees in Utah were surveyed to determine the relationship between social support and economic self-sufficiency among refugees. Agency staff and refugee sponsors rated contacts by family, work, school, and sponsors who are family members as most useful, with differences emerging between the two groups regarding other sources of social support. Respondents who had been refugees rated some forms of social support higher than nonrefugee respondents. Mutual Assistance Associations were seen as underutilized resources for helping Indochinese refugees build and maintain networks of social support.
Social Development In Nigeria: A Case Analysis, Gloria Mead Jinadu
Social Development In Nigeria: A Case Analysis, Gloria Mead Jinadu
The Journal of Sociology & Social Welfare
Nigeria is plagued by a social poverty that continues to escalate dramatically, in spite of the rapid economic growth associated with the "petrol naira." Efforts to check this deterioration and ensure development are hindered by the lack of culturally rooted structural and conceptual supports in the social development sector. These support components have been, and still are absent and until they are established, economic growth and ideological choices will be irrelevant to any rational effort to halt the escalation of social poverty and enhance the quality of life enjoyed by Nigerians.
