Therefore, it is not surprising to find extremely very few women in senior positions in many Chinese firms and organizations. This evidences the male-oriented culture as a dominant feature in China. Sexual harassment is very rampant especially against junior female employee. However, most of these offences go unpunished because females usually fear losing their jobs since it would be extremely difficult to get another job. In addition, female executives travelling alone or in the company of male associates are rare in China.
The UK usage of the term "Asian" is reflected in the "ethnic group" section of UK census forms, which treat "Asian" and "Chinese" as separate. Most respondents to the UK 2001 Census of non-Chinese East Asian and Southeast Asian descent chose to write-in their ethnicity in the "Other Ethnic Group" category rather than the "Other Asian" category, reflecting the association of the word Asian in the UK with South Asian. Despite there being a strong presence of East Asians in the United Kingdom there are considerably more South Asians, for example the 2001 Census recorded 1.05 million people of Indian origin and 247,000 of Chinese origin in the UK. In what ways has the ethnic group you selected contributed to American culture? The most contribution to American culture has been in the domain or cusine.
In Fishwick just over half of its residents own at least one car, this is a staggering comparison with 88.5 percent of Longton’s residents owning at least one car, this shows the difference in wealth between the two places and the difference in ease of access. Longton contrasts with Fishwick as Longton is very wealthy with a high percentage employed in the professional sector but many of Longton’s residents are forced to travel to work as jobs are not locally available around the area, in this sense Longton is quite isolated when compared with Fishwick and this can effect social wellbeing as the difficulty for some residents to reach the centre and services can be a problem. The level of education can also affect the welfare of people living in these areas, Fishwick naturally has the lowest levels of education and this has a negative effect on wages and contributes to the lower levels of wealth throughout which leads on to problems such as increased debt, less spending money for entertainment and leisure. These negative things can lead on to health issues such as
Van ijzendoorn and kroonernberg conducted a meta analysis of 32 studies in 8 different countries. They found that difference between cultures were small, secure attachments was the most common in every country, followed by insecure avoidant. These cross cultural similarties support the view that attachment is innate and that different cultural practices have little effect on attachment behaviour. Another study conducted by Takahahi demonstrated differences between cultures when the strange situation was used. 60 middle-class Japanese infants 1 years old and their mothers were observed in the Strange Situation It was found that 68% of infants were classified as securely attached/ 32% as resistant-insecure / none were classified as avoidant-insecure The Japanese infants were extremely disturbed when left alone.
“The Chinese worked very hard, eleven hours a day, six days a week. They were third on the pay schedule behind whites and Hindus earning a fraction of their pay. Yet the Chinese only grateful to have any work at all were not complainers.” (Page 59). The above example describes the circumstances that many immigrants might have gone through during that time. She also gave examples from her own family background so that she can trace the mixture of different cultures in her writings.
The most obvious form of political participation is, of course, voting- usually through general elections and referendums. However, the percentage of people who voted in a general election dropped from 83% in 1984 to 72% in 2000, and only 65% of people voting in the 2010 general election. This may well be due to a lack of interest in modern politics, or the feelings that your vote will not have a great impact on the outcome of the election, or a distrust of many of the politicians standing for election. In addition, Crewe’s survey of young people in Britain found that 80% of British pupils engaged in little or no discussion of political affairs at home. If the height of interaction between young people and politics is so limited, it seems doubtful that the political interest of tomorrow will be any better than the political interest of today.
Ans: El Paso has a population of 425,000 and 62.5% of this is of Hispanic origin. Its per capita income is lowest among the metropolitan cities. Owing to its Spanish spread in the population, print and electronic media owes allegiance to them and most of their work is concentrated to cater to this section of population. However, there are over 325 places of worship for Catholic, Roman, Protestants and other faiths. It’s evident from the
BucinBusiness Communication Trend Paper By Nicole Williams Com/285 Dr. Ronald Beach University of Phoenix 6/10/2010 In business communication at my previous job a person had to adjust to others speaking different languages. The job structured around many diverse nationalities. Some of the people at this particular workplace did not understand English, which is the primary language spoken in America. The most common language used on daily basics was very difficult for some of the employees to master. Bearing in mind 90 percents of the employee in which are from India, and he or she only understand and speak Hindi.
The results show that there are relatively low litter amounts compared to the amount of tourists they recieve each day A total of 1226 tourists were counted at 11:15 with only 678 pieces of litter. The graph shows the biggest percentage of litter was chewing gum and cigarette butts, these are small pieces of litter so are harder to notice and take more time to remove compared to crisp wrappers and paper. The reason the litter count is low is also because Keswick is cleaned 3 times a day because the amount of tourism is high, which means labour costs are higher than average. Litter can be linked to the enviromental quaility and as a year group we surveyed 36 sited for this but only 1 site, site 14 had a negative rating for litter. This could be due to the fact that it is in the CED with 79 people walking past it and a litter count of 54 it is also very close to the fast food outlets of the old Keswickian chip shop and Greggs.The questionnaire also links to my litter survey because when asked "What problems are caused by tourism?"
FRQ #1A Although the immigrants arriving during the periods1880 and 1900-1925 were markedly different in culture and origin, the overall American response remained the same. The second wave of immigration brought peoples from the Slavic and Baltic regions of Southern and Eastern Europe, and Chinese and Japanese immigrants on the west coast near Los Angeles and San Francisco. As opposed to the dominant Catholic Irish and English Protestant immigrants of the first wave, this second wave was composed mainly of Jews, Greek Orthodox Christians and Catholics. The period 1880-1925 also saw a decrease in literacy amongst immigrants, as many of the new Europeans were poor and illiterate. During both periods, there was a strong natives’ sentiment
