Ignorance of International Law Is No Excuse, or How the Florida Legislature Ticked Off Canada
During its 2012 session the Florida Legislature amended the text of the Florida Statutes which lists exemptions from the requirements of obtaining a Florida drivers' license. Removed from the text of Florida Statute 322.04 was the line concerning nonresidents, both fellow Americans and international visitors, "who has in his or her immediate possession a valid noncommercial driver's license issued to the nonresident in his or her home state orcou…
Social and cultural influences on tobacco-related health disparities among South Asians in the USA
Many cultural factors govern tobacco use among diverse global populations. Especially for migrants with a common regional origin, the role of ethnic identity may strongly influence culturally specific tobacco patterns. Qualitative inquiry helps elucidate such culturally framed behaviour in culturally diverse populations. These cultural contexts should be integrated into research and practice. Understanding multidimensional factors influencing non…

Constructing Images of Deviance: A Look at State Intervention into the Problem of Wife-Battery
Patricia Morgan's paper describes what happens when the state intervenes in the social problem of wife-battering. Her analysis refers to the United States, but there are clear implications for other countries, including Britain. The author argues that the state, through its social problem apparatus, manages the image of the problem by a process of bureaucratization, professionalization and individualization. This serves to narrow the definition o…

Determinants of the Psychiatric Patient Career: Family Reaction Patterns and Social Work Intervention
The ways in which the family responds or fails to respond to deviance are crucial determinants for the evolution of the psychiatric patient career of the deviant member. Various conclusions in respect to pathways to hospitalization, readiness to accept the sick role, extent of adjustment to hospitalization, favorability of attitudes toward the treatment staff, and likelihood of readmission can be deduced by examining two "sensitizing concepts" or…
The Prediction of Economic Absorption and Cultural Integration among Mexican-Americans, Negroes, and Anglos in a Northern Industrial Community
This is a report on a three-year study of immigrant labor in Racine, Wisconsin. The study has proceeded on the assumption that variations in economic absorption and cultural integration may be explained by: 1) antecedent experiences of a handicapping nature; 2) attitudes and values acquired previous to arrival in the community; and 3) present patterns of association, as well as by the attitudes and behaviors of people in the host community. The b…
