Religion And Church Attendance
[ send me this paper ]
This 9 page paper discusses three articles that appeared in the Journal of Contemporary Religion in 2002. The first article by Bruce, Praying Alone? Church-Going in Britain and the Putnam Thesis, spurred the responses of two other authors. This essay also discusses Robert Putnam's thesis regarding the decline in voluntary associations among the populous and the premise that declining church attendance is just another example of a general shift away from collective activity. Using the three articles, Putnam's article and book and other sources, the writer asserts this is too simplistic. There are many factors involved with lower church attendance. Social capital is also discussed. Bibliography lists 11 sources.

Religious Profiling Or Reasonable Outreach?
[ send me this paper ]
3 pages in length. The interpretive nature of how the LAPD attempted to gain information about the Muslim community for the antiterrorist agenda is what resides at the core of this civil rights issue and the primary reason why the operation was halted. The single most damning aspect of the strategy was an arbitrary understanding of what the word "moderate" meant within the context of flushing out vulnerable individuals who may have the potential for becoming mixed up with Iraqi fundamentalists? To what extent did personal opinion play a role in determining someone's moderate stance if he merely stated how wrong he thought the war was? Would that be considered a veiled threat to the safety of the United States? The level of subjectivity inherent to this type of broad-brushed operation cast the LAPD in a very awkward and inappropriate situation whereby their actions can indeed be construed as religious profiling. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

Rent Control: Impact Upon The Economy
[ send me this paper ]
3 pages in length. Obtaining - and keeping - affordable housing within one's budget is one of contemporary society's most painful problems. The extent to which rent control has provided many the opportunity to find suitable housing where they otherwise would not is both grand and far-reaching; that the very aspect of rent control represents a dichotomy of tremendous proportions: It is a godsend for low-income people while at the same time a financial disaster for property owners locked into artificially low rents. One of the hardest hit populations where rent control - and its ultimate deregulation - is concerned is that of the homeless. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Reporting Abuse And Duty To Protect/Warn: California & Arkansas
[ send me this paper ]
6 pages in length. The prevalence of abuse throughout the United States is not restricted to any age group, gender or ethnicity; that abuse crosses all lines of demarcation speaks to an equal opportunity offense where verbal or physical harm often goes undetected when the victim is either unable or unwilling to report the abuse. For those in California and Arkansas who have suffered at the hands of an abuser but are either afraid or wholly incapable of saying so, laws exist so that others may step in and ultimately make the report in the victim's defense. Nowhere is this more important a legal intervention than when children are targets of abuse. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
