Sexuality In Chile, Elana Jacobs
Sexuality In Chile, Elana Jacobs
Independent Study Project (ISP) Collection
This paper explores contemporary sexuality in Chile, through an analysis of the institutionalized rules and regulations, comprised of the many laws and regulations determined by Chile’s governing bodies and embodied by the words and actions of State Officials, and the police force: los Carabineros; to the societal norms and collective values, which include the position of the Catholic Church, the media, and the sociological investigations which analyze Chile’s collective understandings and dominant discourses, determining what is acceptable within the realm of sex and sexuality, and what is not. Additionally, this paper seeks to understand the efforts of the many organizations …
La Lucha Del Mocase Para Desarrollo Y Autonomía, Katie Metcalf
La Lucha Del Mocase Para Desarrollo Y Autonomía, Katie Metcalf
Independent Study Project (ISP) Collection
This study is an analysis of the current situation of the small producers of the Movimiento Campesino del Santiago del Estero (MOCASE) to determine the extent they are obtaining a sustainable and autonomous existence by means of rural development projects, with a specific focus on MOCASE from the region of Bandera Bajada, department Figueroa, and their interaction with the Programa Social Agropecuario (PSA). The history of repression and social exclusion of the small producers, both on a provincial and national scale, through the implementation of neoliberal macroeconomic policies, massive land sales to large enterprises, and corrupt government policies have severely …
Inmigración Marroquí En Granada = Morrocan Immigration In Granada, Emily C M O’Neill
Inmigración Marroquí En Granada = Morrocan Immigration In Granada, Emily C M O’Neill
Independent Study Project (ISP) Collection
In today’s world of increased globalization and great economic disparities, the discussion of immigration has become all the more controversial, complicated, and relevant. I believe in the right to immigrate. The nation into which one is born strongly determines the destiny of the individual. I was born in the United States, a rich democratic country and subsequently may have greater opportunities than someone from an impoverished nation, this does not mean, however that I have more right to life than the latter. It is a sad reality that people are forced to leave their homeland in search of a better …

Un Tren Que Pasa: La Lucha De La Faa Por Alcanzar La Representación En El Mercosur, Heather John
Un Tren Que Pasa: La Lucha De La Faa Por Alcanzar La Representación En El Mercosur, Heather John
Independent Study Project (ISP) Collection
In response to the Common Market of the South (MERCOSUR) process of regional economic integration which began in 1991, in 1994 national organizations of family farmers from the member countries formed a transnational coalition entitled La Coordinadora de Organizaciones Agricultores Familiares del MERCOSUR (COPROFAM) to represent themselves at the regional level. This study examines the reasons why the Federación Agraria Argentina (FAA), the largest member from Argentina and a longstanding Argentine institution, chose to represent itself as part of a transnational coalition at this regional level. Furthermore, it attempts to answer what the obstacles and successes of COPROFAM have been …
Leaving The Streets, Jane Slater
Leaving The Streets, Jane Slater
Independent Study Project (ISP) Collection
Currently thousands of children and adolescents live in the streets of Managua, and this phenomenon is moving rapidly into the smaller cities of Nicaragua. In other countries around the world, civil war is a leading cause of street children, but in Nicaragua, physical, emotional, or sexual abuse, often committed by the father or stepfather, combined with poverty is usually why children and adolescents turn to the street. Street kids range in age from about 5 or 6 years old to 18 years old, and many kids living in the streets have children of their own. The majority of street kids …
Citizenship In The Republic Of Ireland: In The Context Of The European Union And The Citizenship Referendum, Cora Bruemmer
Citizenship In The Republic Of Ireland: In The Context Of The European Union And The Citizenship Referendum, Cora Bruemmer
Independent Study Project (ISP) Collection
In a world of increased globalization, the importance of citizenship may seem less and less important. However, I would assert that political belonging is becoming ever more important and is undergoing radical changes. The European Union (EU) is rapidly changing people’s understanding of citizenship. Rather than calling themselves Irish, people may soon be calling themselves European instead. Borders between countries are weakening and movement between them is increasing. Today a citizen of Latvia can live and work in Ireland as long as he or she so chooses. These changes in citizenship may actually have great implications for citizenship policy in …
La Crise Du Vin Français ? L’Effet Des Évolutions Sociaux Et Culturelles Sur L’Adaptabilité De L’Économie Du Vin Français = French Wine In Crisis? The Effect Of Culture And Social Changes On The French Wine Economy, Andrew Mckibben
Independent Study Project (ISP) Collection
On lit souvent dans les journaux français qu’il y a une crise du vin. Le terme « une crise du vin » doit d’abord être plus spécifié pour vraiment comprendre l’état actuel de l’économie du vin. Ces articles font références aux plusieurs d’indications économiques et sociales que le vin français souffre d’une demande qui baisse et qui baissera de plus en plus. En citant des statistiques et des chiffres, il paraît qu’il y a un problème dramatique.
Depuis les années cinquante, lorsque la consommation du vin a atteint son niveau le plus haut, la consommation nationale, et mondiale, est fortement …
