This article considers how well the existing sociological literature on immigrant integration and assimilation responds to public fears over multiculturalism. The current backlash against multiculturalism rests on both its perceived negative effects for immigrants’ socioeconomic integration and its failure to encourage civic and political cohesion. I offer a brief review of multiculturalism as ...

The phenomenon of "judicial orphans" is frequent in trial practice, which leads to difficult problems sentence enforcement. Therefore, it necessary improve the enforcement system, appropriately increase number non-custodial sentences, set up a relatively unified department and strengthen law supervision, build social support system for orphans". In order ensure organic unity legal effects crimi...

Abstract The congruence of sociometry theory and social work theories is covered in detail this chapter. atom, cultural sociogram are described with visual depictions. Moreno’s interpersonal connection, networks, society depicted while introducing terms such as the sociodynamic effect, tele, organic unity mankind. Sociometry’s connection to work’s person-in-environment emphasized also consideri...

Iron deficiency in dwarf bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) induces an increased activity of a system in the rhizodermal cells, which reduces extracellular ferric salts, and an active proton efflux from the roots, which is coupled to accumulation of citrate and malate in the roots and subsequent export of these compounds in the xylem. During reduction of extracellular ferricyanide by Fe-deficient pla...

[1] As the water uptake by particles and clouds influences the radiative balance of the Earth, it is desirable to understand the mechanisms and parameters, which regulate water uptake in these colloidal particles. In this work, molecular dynamics simulations were used to simulate scattering or accommodation of water vapor molecules impinging on a slab of water and slabs of water coated by monom...

We describe the mechanization of recent examples of compositional reasoning, due to Charpentier and Chandy [4]. The examples illustrate a new theory for composition proposed by Chandy and Sanders [2, 3], based on the so-called existential and universal properties. We show that, while avoiding hand proof mistakes, a such compositional reasoning can be mechanized quite straightforwardly. We also ...

The effective action for type II string theory compactified on a six torus is N = 8 supergravity, which is known to have an E 7 duality symmetry. We show that this is broken by quantum effects to a discrete subgroup, E 7 (Z), which contains both the T-duality group O(6, 6; Z) and the S-duality group SL(2; Z). We present evidence for the conjecture that E 7 (Z) is an exact 'U-duality' symmetry o...

(2) Let D be a non empty set, S be a non empty subset of D, f be a binary operation on D, g be a binary operation on S, d be an element of D, and d′ be an element of S such that g = f [:S, S :] and d′ = d. Then (i) if d is a left unity w.r.t. f , then d′ is a left unity w.r.t. g, (ii) if d is a right unity w.r.t. f , then d′ is a right unity w.r.t. g, and (iii) if d is a unity w.r.t. f , then d...

the fundamental belief in sikhism is that god exists not merely as an idea or concept, but as a real entity. god is indescribable, yet knowable and perceivable to anyone who is prepared to dedicate the time and energy to become perceptive to his persona. the gurus never spoke about proofs of the existence of god. for them, he is too real, and something obvious does not require any logical proof...
