.... Œyouth¹ can be difficult and is described in the Concise Oxford Dictionary as: ³the state of being young, the period between childhood and adult age² - Oxford Dictionary (1990). This would indicate that youth is described as an age group and people can be distinguished by the different age groups. However, it could be questioned that not all children stop being children at the same time. Frith describes youth as ³not simply an age group, but the social organization of an age group² Sociologists of youth, according to Frith, describe youth culture as ³the way of life shared by young people². Subculture, as defined in the Concise Oxford Dictionary, is a  ....

.... The Amish are fine craftsmen, skilled in everything from building the barns to sewing some of the finest quilts around. In recent years, many Amish have opened small shops to help supplement their modest earnings from farming. Skills handed down from generation to generation have resulted in the best quality products, a proud Amish tradition. Of course, the Amish did not choose this newly found way of life, they were forced in by greater urbanization and the diminished availability and affordability of farmland. They would rather stay and go into small business than move to a more rural state. One of the most known societies is in the town of Lancaster County, Pennsylvania ....

.... it encompasses. It holds position as the fourth most populated nation in the world, containing a diversity of people including Javanese, Sudanese, Malays, and Balinese and other smaller groups which make up fifty-five percent of the population. Four of its largest islands are known as the Greater Sunda Islands. Jawa has the smallest area but is largest in population density (with about 120 million), Sumatera is in the west across from Malaysia, Kalimantan (which shares land space with Malaysia on Borneo), and Sulawesi, which is also called Celebes, the “wishbone – shaped” island of the east. The fifth largest island is New Guinea, which is not primarily a part of ....

.... students to study their heritage's. This movement became popular in many schools until around 1950. Now, these days in education, the term multicultural education never escapes a teacher's thoughts (Ryan, 26). What does the term "multicultural education" mean to you? I means different things to different people. For instance, to some minority communities, it means to foster pride and self-esteem among minority students, like the progressive movement in the 1930's. Another example would be in the white communitites, that multicultural programs are designed to cultivate an appreciation of various cultural, racial, and ethnic traditions. Cortes defines multicultural ....

.... Therefore it is hard for a Japanese man to learn to be independent. After he gets married, he now relies on his bride for having foods, doing laundry, and many other things. Takeo Doi explains it with the term of amae that means the seeking or causing of oneself to be loved, nurtured, and indulged. He says it is an active attempt to make oneself into a passive love object. One reason why a man continues depending on someone else is that he has been witnessed what his parents have been done and now he considers himself as a head of his own family. In case of woman, it is difficult to keep her job after the marriage, because she needs to take care of her child, whic ....

.... they attempt to make women feel imperfect about their own bodies through advertisement. Advertisers manipulate women into thinking their value is dependent on their physical appearance. An overweight person is seen as lazy. Women, especially, are told that their efforts to exercise and to stay fit will be rewarded by success in their personal and professional lives. If they fail at the idea they are encouraged to try harder. The cruel thing is that the social requirement that we achieve the "ideal weight" is based on the presumption that we can completely control our body size, which is not true. The only things that seem to sell these days are young faces. It seems as if the ....

.... needs liquidity or has no relative or partner to pass the ownership to is the main time that owners think about where their business might be going. Many owners of a family business don’t do estate planning or strategy until it’s too late. Even when the owner tries to plan for the inevitable, he has minority shareholders or kids who don’t want to run the business. Every option for the owner has a downside. Selling usually means the owner must give up control. Going public often creates an orphan stock. Employee-stock-ownership plans can burden the CEO with "onerous regulatory-compliance issues," and leveraged recaps can load the firm with debt. Company ....

.... but it is as overlooked as a crumb on a kitchen floor. Factory life is hard, but for the workers they have no choice. This is why it is called slavery, because they must work or die from lack of supplies and sustenance for them and their entire family. The working conditions are beyond horrid. Women anywhere from ages thirteen and up work in a dark and crowded rooms with dangerous heavy machinery, working feet or even inches from a soon to be severed limb, and just adding to the noise that falls on soon becoming deaf ears. If these women are lucky enough to have children, they are fortunate enough to come to work with their mothers, and spend the days in a dan ....
