Being prejudiced usually means having preconceived beliefs about groups of people or cultural practices. Prejudices can either be positive or negative; both forms are usually preconceived and difficult to alter. The negative...

Stereotypes are exaggerated labels that are put on certain people of a group without considering the individuals themselves. Prejudice is similar to stereotyping due to it being directed at a group. However, it goes so far as to be the negative attitude towards those groups based on race or religion. Discrimination is actually denying the rights of those individuals based on their ethnic background or race. Where stereotyping and prejudice are only frowned upon, discrimination is illegal and punishable by law. If you or your business is caught discriminating then you can be looking at jail time. Stereotyping and prejudice are beliefs. Discrimination is taking those thoughts and beliefs and creating actions against those people due to their color, age or ethnic background. For example, Hitler discriminated against the Jews because he took their rights away. For a long time America discriminated...

...ETH/125 05/06/2012 Debra Bloom Appendix H Women have been looked at as the naturally weaker then the men. Domestic chores is what women were put to do as a job. Men were to keep to the heavy work such as hunting and plowing in labor. Women are taught to care for the children they beard, cook and clean for the household. In laws around the world women were allowed to make contracts, own land, and be sued by others if unmarried. A women who became married gave up everything to her husband, even her name. During the history the men effectively owned his wife and the children as material possessions. Two women, Elizabeth Stanton and Susan B. Anthony, who were temperance and antislavery advocates formed the National Women Suffrage Association (NWSA) in New York in 1869. Another women, Lucy Stone, organized American Women Suffrage Association (AWSA) in Boston at the same time. As women start to become leaders in the professional world, they have also jobs once regarded as too physically strenuous. Women have become coal miners, fire fighters and police officers. As they advance professionally, so do their self image. In the professions there are more opportunities. There seems to be a "glass ceiling" a level which women do not rise. Women were, however, paid much less for such work than men, and their economic "value" decreased. It took many decades of determination for the legal reform to end the discrimination against women. Femininity is changing, girls are less romantic...

...Axel Dreher Martin Gassebner Lars-H. R. Siemers ISSN: 1439-2305 Globalization, Economic Freedom and Human Rights Axel Dreher a Martin Gassebner b Lars-H. R. Siemers c October 2010 Abstract Using the KOF Index of Globalization and two indices of economic freedom, we empirically analyze whether globalization and economic liberalization affect governments’ respect for human rights using a panel of 106 countries over the 1981-2004 period. According to our results, physical integrity rights significantly and robustly increase with globalization and economic freedom, while empowerment rights are not robustly affected. Due to the lack of consensus about the appropriate level of empowerment rights as compared to the outright rejection of any violation of physical integrity rights, the global community is presumably less effective in promoting empowerment rights.
