Topic: Status group


  
  Social status - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Social status is the "standing", the honour or prestige attached to one's position in society.
In modern societies, occupation is usually thought of as the main determinant of status, but even in modern societies other memberships or affiliations (such as ethnic group, religion, gender, voluntary associations, fandom, hobby) can have an influence.
Status inconsistency is a situation when an individual's social positions have both positive and negative influences on his social status.

 The Constitution of Status-- Part I
Groups whose world-views are most undermined by such changes, as well as people who have the most to lose from a change in status relationships, will understandably seek to halt what they see as an accelerating slide toward moral degeneration.
Groups lower in a status hierarchy may respond to their lower status by developing a compensatory sense of esteem in their own ways of living, condemning the lifestyles of higher status groups as immoral or inauthentic, or attempting to turn their lower status into a point of pride through irony.
The idea of "status groups" may be confusing at first because lawyers have their own concept of "status" which is used in a number of legal contexts and forms the basis for many important doctrines.

 The Constitution of Status-- Part II
Groups who fear a loss of status, either due to competition from other groups or general social and economic changes, experience status anxiety; often this leads them to try to reassert their status through new forms of status competition.
Increased respect for lower status groups means a corresponding loss of respect for higher status groups because their identity has been constructed around their greater prestige and the greater propriety of their ways of living.
Because status competition is zero-sum, this increase in status necessarily occurs at the expense of heterosexuals.

 Status of Women in India: A Comparison by State
Status rank differences between males and females are higher in the case of employment than in health or education.
In terms of health status, a comparison of the ranking of males shows that their status is not much different from that of women, since nine out of the 14 States show the same rank for both sexes.
In the final analysis, status is a personal, innate experience of an individual resulting from his or her life situation and that of others acting upon and reacting to each other.

 IJNL Group 2 - Decision Makers
In general, group discussions led to the conclusion that there is a wide variety of solutions to the problem of who should have decision-making authority for the granting of public benefit status.
The group discussed the draft Romanian law under which a 3-years’ qualification period is required before an NGO is granted public benefit status and during which it has to meet certain criteria.
The group reached the conclusion that such criteria should include: the purpose of the NGO, the non-distribution of profits, and the degree to which the activities of the organization are in the public interest.

 SOCIAL CLASS, CONFLICT, AND DISTANCE   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-01)
Relative status ranks, status disequilibrium, and incongruence have consequences for conflict and social interaction among individuals, as argued in Chapter 18.
In every modern democracy conflict among different groups is expressed through political parties which basically represent a "democratic translation of the class struggle." Even though many parties renounce the principle of class conflict or loyalty, an analysis of their appeals and their support suggests that they do represent the interests of different classes.
By characterizing labour disputes as group conflicts one is in danger of conveying the impression that such disputes presuppose the existence of established and coherent groups.

 International Crisis Group - 161 Kosovo Toward Final Status
As evidenced by the deadly rioting in March 2004, Kosovo Albanians are frustrated with their unresolved status, the economic situation, and the problems of dealing with the past.
But the proposed process should not be held hostage to that eventuality: the situation on the ground in Kosovo is too fragile, and the status quo too unsustainable in too many ways, for the international community to allow its future status to be put on indefinite hold.
The international community, in particular the member states of the Contact Group, must decide whether to regain control of the agenda or allow matters to slip until unpleasant new facts are created on the ground that they will have to deal with.

 DSFA » Publications » Employment Status Group Report - PPF 18/04/01
The group was set up because of a growing concern that there may be increasing numbers of individuals categorised as 'self employed' when the 'indicators' may be that 'employee' status would be more appropriate.
While it was accepted by the Group that the Code of Practice does not have legislative effect, it was expected that its contents would be considered by those involved in disputes on the employment status of individuals or groups of individuals.
Under Tax and Social Welfare law if the status of 'employee' is found to be appropriate the person engaging the 'employee' is the accountable person for any PAYE tax and PRSI deductible while that person was engaged (whether or not any deductions were made) together with appropriate interest and penalties that may arise.

 Articles / Impact / Rate Group Prepares Status Report - Institute for Creation Research
The research group studying Radioisotopes and the Age of the Earth (RATE) met on June 3 and 4 in Albuquerque, New Mexico, to receive the first draft of its Status Report on radioisotope dating to be published in 2000 and establish priorities on research projects.
It is hypothesized by the RATE group that at some time in the past a much higher rate of radioisotope decay may have occurred leading to the production of large quantities of daughter products in a short period of time.
For example, the expected rate of escape of helium from rocks which have undergone a large degree of nuclear decay only a few thousand years ago would seem to indicate that much of the helium should still be trapped in the rocks.
