Middle-Class Ideal Of The Suburban Community
[ send me this essay ]
5 pages in length. Suburbia represents a great deal of importance for cities today in that it provides an outlet for those who cannot or do not want to live within the confines of an overpopulated environment. There exist inherent problems for urban cities that have reached and surpassed the number of people they can comfortably and productively hold. This is when outlying districts come especially into play, as they grant city dwellers the opportunity to escape into a decidedly more serene atmosphere. Not only does this diversion help to diffuse potentially disastrous circumstances with respect to problems associated with overcrowding, but it also enables people to experience and appreciate a life other than that of the rat race.

Minority Immigrants Living in Poverty: Education and Employment Factors (Canadian Studies Highlighted)
[ send me this essay ]
This is a 10 page paper discussing minority immigrants living in poverty and the relation to education and employment. Within the last decade, increasing high levels of poverty have been recorded in the minority and recent immigrant populations in Canada and the United States. In Canada, recent immigrants make up over 52% of those under the poverty line in urban areas. Traditionally, immigrants coming into Canada whether skilled or unskilled laborers reached the average Canadian income in less than 10 years after their arrival. Educated immigrants previously had attained average or above income. Within the last 10 years however, this has not been the case and educated and professional immigrants are among the poorest population group in Canada along with the uneducated minority immigrants. Part of this is because it had been felt that due to the decline in the labor market, employers do not recognize the foreign credentials of immigrants but many critics also believe that discrimination plays a large part as well. Educational programs within Canada and the United States tend to focus on overcoming the language barrier firstly in addition to upgrading any educational or occupational labor skills. Regardless of the awareness of increased need in this area, many researchers still agree that the greatest barrier for most minority immigrants is racism which unless overcome will continue to reflect in an unequal representation of immigrant groups in poverty.

[ send me this essay ]
5 pages in length. According to Michael Ignatieff's Warriors Honor Ethnic War and the Modern, "nationalism does not simply 'express' a preexistent identity: it constitutes a new one. Nationalism is a fiction : it requires the willing suspension of disbelief" (Ignatieff 38).
