Review of Two Studies on African Orphans
[ send me this paper ]
A 12 page paper reviewing two studies of orphaned African children. There are many conflicting reports coming out of Africa regarding the status of children. At the same time that portions of the popular press are reporting that fully one million AIDS orphans have nowhere to go, nowhere to live and no one to care for them, at least two large studies find that there are no great health or social differences between orphans and those living with biological parents. The purpose here is to review "Health and nutritional status of orphans <6 years old cared for by relatives in western Kenya" and "The social situation of motherless children in rural and urban areas of Guinea-Bissau" in context. Neither of these primary studies seems to answer any specific questions about the lives of orphans in two areas of Africa. They do, however, contribute to the body of knowledge surrounding conditions that are developing in response to the continued progress of the HIV/AIDS epidemic in sub-Saharan Africa. Bibliography lists 9 sources.

Review of Two Studies on African Orphans 2
[ send me this paper ]
An 11 page paper reviewing "Approaches to caring, essential elements for a quality service and cost-effectiveness in South Africa" and "Policy implications of the inadequate support systems for orphans in Western Kenya" for the purpose of evaluating their effectiveness in informing policy-making changes in sub-Saharan Africa. The focus is dealing with the exponentially-increasing numbers of AIDS-orphaned children. Traditionally, family units have cared for orphans, but their numbers are so high that they threaten to swamp that informal system. Bibliography lists 2 sources.

Rwomire/Social Problems in Africa
[ send me this paper ]
A 7 page book review. Editor Apollo Rwomire begins his preface for his text Social Problems in Africa: New Visions (2001), by pointing out that there is a "dearth of detailed, multidisciplinary, comparative, and accessible" research dealing with social problems in regards to Africa (Rwomire vii). The articles that Rwomire has selected for his text address this need. As editor, Rwomire adopts an eclectic, holistic approach due to the fact that social problems cover such a broad range of issues and policies. This examination of Rwomire's text will take a critical look at its structure and the research methods that the various authors employed. No additional sources cited.

Sacred Hunger: A Review of the Book by Barry Unsworth
[ send me this paper ]
A 6 page review of the fictional scenario of the events which impact the owners, crew, and cargo of an Eighteenth Century ship, “The Liverpool Merchant”. Unsworth uses the traditional sea story to provide an interesting view of the historical factors which made slavery an accepted part of white society. He takes tradition one step further, however, by setting up a scenario in which white and black alike search for a utopian society, a means by which all can once and for all be equal. This paper analyzes the factors which made that goal an impossibility. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
