Abstract "American society produces numerous social movements to address perceived problems affecting segments of the population or the population as a whole. For a social movement to occur, the following must take place: 1) some members of society must share a grievance they want to correct; 2) they must have hope and think there is a possibility of success; 3) there is often a precipitating event that ignites these grievances and convinces the people that the time for action has arrived; 4) people are recruited through a network of attachments.

Pro-Life or Pro-Choice?, 2000. This paper considers both sides of the abortion debate and the ethics surrounding each viewpoint. 1,115 words (approx. 4.5 pages), 5 sources, APA, $ 38.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract The paper discusses the continuing pro-life versus pro-choice arguments surrounding abortion in the United States. It examines both sides of the debate including the ethics involved. It shows that the notion of legal abortion as a necessary evil is based on a series of myths widely disseminated since the 1960s. These myths captured the public mind and have yet to be rebutted. It shows as an example of one of these myths, where it is believed that one to two million illegal abortions occurred annually before abortion legalization, when in actual fact there were far fewer.
From the Paper "It seems that Americans want to oppose abortion and yet keep it legal. The public debate on this subject has reached an impasse, yet the issue continues to be debated (Kavanaugh 1997). While there is little change in public opinion, it does not mean that the abortion issue is going to lessen in intensity any time soon. There are many reasons for this, but the abortion issue is not going to recede in intensity any time in the near future. While there are many reasons for this, the most important might be simply that "the majority of Americans morally disapprove of the majority of abortions currently performed," as University of Virginia sociologist James Hunter concludes in his path-breaking 1994 book, Before the Shooting Begins: Searching Jar Democracy in America's Culture Wars."

Pro-Choice or Pro-Life?, 2004. A philosophical approach to the abortion debate. 2,065 words (approx. 8.3 pages), 6 sources, MLA, $ 65.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper examines the philosophical and moral consequences of the choice to abort a child and leans to the pro-life side by arguing that it is morally harmful to terminate someone's life and alienate the opinions and role of the father in the act.
From the Paper "Utilitarianism is a theory that states action is perceived as right or wrong depending on the consequences of that action (Boss, 2004). Utilitarianism should not be considered because it fails to take seriously the distinction between persons. Different people have different needs and different goals. Utilitarianism alienates us from our personal responsibility for our actions, but also from our moral sentiments and conscience (Boss, 2004). It is hard to say whether we can say that not have an abortion is for the greater good of the community because in some cultures, like China it is not considered bad and is encouraged to keep the population down."

Abstract This paper paper introduces, summarizes and discusses an article about the stance on abortion taken by pro-life feminists entitled, "Abortion and the Sexual Agenda: A Case for Pro-life Feminism". The paper examines the moral and philosophical questions involved in this hotly debated topic and examines the arguments against abortion put forth by pro-life feminists.
From the Paper "There are few debates that rage as passionately as the argument regarding abortion and women's reproductive rights. Indeed, this topic inevitably gives rise to the discussion of moral and philosophical questions about personhood and fetal rights. The debate becomes even more interesting, however, when approached from opposing feminist perspectives, as both pro-choice and pro-life feminists are committed to bringing about full social equality for women, yet view the abortion issue in entirely different lights. While it may seem that feminism requires a certain support of abortion as part of..."

Abstract The paper reviews the debate between the anti-abortion movement - "National Right to Life Committee" and the pro-abortion group - "National Abortion and Reproductive Rights Action League".
From the Paper "Every year for the past 28 years, Washington D.C. has been invaded twice yearly by two opposing forces; the Pro-Choice advocates and the Pro-Life lobby. Since the 1973 Roe vs. Wade Supreme Court decision that legalized abortion in the United States, these two opposite sides have actively campaigned to either reverse this decision or have it upheld and strengthened, respectively. Two of these interest groups have gone so far as to establish Capitol Hill offices to promote their agendas- The National Abortion and Reproductive Rights League and the National Right to Life Committee."

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This essay asserts that in the broader issue of reproductive rights, pro-life strategists apply a double standard when it comes to minorities and their reproductive rights. The paper maintains that when the focus is changed from abortion to broader reproductive freedom, the pro-life advocates apply race and class criteria that distinguish between the rights of white, middle-class women and low-income women of color. The paper further asserts that pro-life activists advocate policies that discourage childbearing by depriving low-income women of the means to support a child and that the pro-life movement has sought to discourage women on welfare from becoming pregnant by punishing them when they bear children.
From the Paper "These policies designed to control the child-bearing of poor women are but the latest in a series of practices that date back to the eugenics movement of the 19th century, which promoted, racial theories of "fitness" and "unfitness." During this time of a significantly declining birth rate within the white population, politicians and eugenicists raised the specter of white "race suicide." The eugenics movement, which was adopted briefly by the birth control movement in the early 20th century, advocated a higher birthrate for white, middle class, "fit" women and a lower birthrate (aided by birth control) for poor women, especially poor "unfit" women of color and immigrant women."

Conclusion
From the Paper "It is the status of the fetus that appears to be at the center of the controversy. In the first trimester of pregnancy, an "embryo is clearly pre-human; only the mystical notions of religious dogma treat this clump of cells as constituting a person" (Peikoff). And, with this infliction of religious beliefs on others, as mentioned earlier, begins the slippery slope to infringing on others religious freedom."

Conclusion
From the Paper "Abortion is perhaps one of the most emotionally charged debates this country has endured for decades. Two diametrically opposed positions have continued to butt heads over the topic, despite legislation and legal rulings that should have ended the debate years ago. Yet, the fact that the issue is so intertwined with religious and moral beliefs has supercharged the topic to a point that neither side can let go. And, therefore, the debate continues."

School Choice: Pro and Con, 2005. A discussion of the pros and cons of school choice. 1,350 words (approx. 5.4 pages), 5 sources, $ 53.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract The paper examines the subject of school choice. After quantifying what school choice is, the paper discusses whether this should be accepted by the legislature, by schools and by parents and whether it is the best decision for children. The paper further analyses how it affects the way children learn. A further question of whether school choice will result in needy children or children from minorities being segregated, as this could mean they attend schools with little funding and few opportunities, is addressed.
From the Paper "Choice is everywhere in American education" (School Choice Facts). When a person stops to think about school choice, he or she will realize that school choice is quite common to every parent. Parents decide where they want their children to go to school and move into the residential areas where those schools are located (School Choice Facts). Sometimes this means paying high costs of rent, but it is worth it to the parents. Some parents make the decision whether to send their children to private school. This means that parents decide the cost of the private school is worth paying fees, books, and other costs. Some parents decide to home school and mothers often decide not to work so they can teach their children at home. All of these involve school choice. School choice is not new. Different countries have tried programs similar to what the U.S. calls school choice."

From the Paper "This paper will argue in favor of the pro-choice point of view in the current abortion issue. A movement has recently developed in America in which members of various fundamentalist Christian and right-wing conservative groups are seeking to outlaw the practice of abortion. One such group, known as "Operation Rescue," has sought to dramatize this issue by blockading women's health and family-planning clinics. At the same time, pro-choice rallies across the United States have begun to attract hundreds of thousands of participants who want to protect women's rights to legal abortion. Indeed, the right to choose whether or not to have an abortion has been a constitutional right for women in the United States since the 1973 Supreme Court decision in the Roe v. Wade case "extended the protection of the Constitution to women's right to an abortion."."
