How inequality and vulnerability impact intercultural migrants.
Social Inequalities and Vulnerability in Intercultural Venezuelan Migrants
Culture is the beliefs of people. How does cultural diversity lead to vulnerability? How are the immigrants treated in a new culture? The research majored on these questions.
We had a discussion with the chairlady of a social worker group who answered the key questions. She majored in various approach and models. Through her guidance and observation were able to consolidate some field notes.
Concept and Model’s
Multi-level analysis approach rationale vs Intra and inter-categorical approach
The goal of intersectionality theory is to explore various overlapping categories, their identity and role to individuals and institutions. Despite this, it has been critiqued by a section of personnel as inherently ambiguous.
In sociology and health, it refers to simultaneous categorical experience and classification hierarchy. This classification is as per class, gender, sexuality, race and nationality. In conceptualizing the whole process, involves a framework for categorically identifying a person a group of individuals, the incidents caused by social problems such as discrimination including the various cons or disadvantage. To understand the complexity in relation to the prejudice, it takes into account various identities overlapping of the individuals. As per the rational on the usage of multilevel analysis. There is an assumption that the diseases are well conceptualized and best measured at per person, that is the individual level. When the individual-level information is not available, variables on group-level acts as variables. Intra and intercategorical approach are mainly based on key patterns.
How Constructs Such as Age, Gender, Race Affects the Health Access its Relation
Individual vulnerability
The individual vulnerability it’s a situation where there is a weakness in a system, that levels the individuals exposed to risks or threat of a certain disease. The vulnerability and the health system is affected by various constructs such as gender, age and race, hence affecting the overall health access. The constructs are related in such that the class, gender and race are associated with the shaping of various people. As per the new research, we find they are defined as categories of interlocking experience which usually affect different aspects of life. As per the structured experience of the group of people in a society, proves to be simultaneous. Various constructs and their effects on health access.
Ethnicity and race have effects on health care. There is a flow of discrimination in relation to different categories and groups within society. The different treated is due to differences in race and general ethnicity division. As per NAM, the ethnic and racial minorities get lower attention on health care; in relative to white people. Minorities receive very low-quality health care. NAM is referred to the blacks when referring to inferior health care offered by medics and health system. Hence there a lot of disparities in health care as per consideration to race ethnicity and culture compared to the whites where the minorities receive preventive service. At various conditions, most of the health outcome is worse for minorities. (5,6)
Gender has an impact on well-being outcome and health overall. On mental health, more women relative to men do experience health problems such as anxiety and depression. The harmful stereotype on body image and sexuality, constitute to this. There is an extension of gender payback in the workplace contributes to and risks women physical and mental health. The disparities are not dependent on biology but as per gendered life course experiences. The factor such as the women is constricted to resources access affecting the quality health access too.
Age affects the accessibility to quality health care. The elderly are more vulnerable in relation to the population access to health care. This is due to other factors that re-strict the elderly such as social-economic status, sociodemographic factors and type of insurance cover. In the overall we find the physical and psychological barriers of seniors affect the health access. Most of the barriers are due to poverty in relation to race. The ageing population, encounter various struggle on an illness such as stroke, heart disease and cancer. The chronic conditions management and other level and forms of disability by the patient lead to very high financial demands as per the health system.
As per the immigration in America base on economic history. International migration was a defined and selective process. Where some of the individual drivers, turning to persecution in the flow of the migrants, during the time of mass migration. There are various drivers for migration as per their types. The four key types of migration include; immigration, conquest, colonization and invasion while an individual may opt to move from home to a new place due to civil disturbance as natural disasters but within the home country. The migrant is classified as an internally displaced person. Drivers of migration relate to selective out-migration. There many macro factors and drivers to migration which include; Wars, demographic increase, urbanization, environment changes and social factors. This represents key factor drivers in a forced or unwilling migration in a given group or individual, 1.2.2 structural vulnerability.
Economics; How economic aid for disparities in Latin America and Peru
( Mention health GDP, this creates more inequities and vulnerability)
Vulnerability and economic insecurity caused household vulnerability to poverty. The rate of poverty is compatible with the flow rate of the population. Vulnerability is measured by risks to fall to poverty. There was an overall decrease in poverty over the last two decades as per the static indicators. Though it doesn’t give clear dimensions of the dynamics of poverty that is the outflow and inflow of poverty. There is a category of different household proportions; the household that remains in poverty, those who exit from poverty, new who fallen to poverty and those who have never experienced poverty. The relation of the population is eight million, where accumulative 74.1% have been associated with poverty. The reduction process of poverty was due to a drop in the amount relating to the redistributive effort. As per the fiscal reserves and as a matter of facts, the fiscal pressure is minimal relative to economies of other countries with the same range of gross domestic product (GPD) levels. Poverty suppression using transfer of poverty-stricken household in achievable goals. Though this calls for consistency that is a whole decade. (1,2)
Using a method that takes into account addictive nature in components of income and counterfactual distribution where one component of the income is removed. Consequences of variation in economic inequality are per the redistribution policies. They depend on the perception of the population on distribution, distributive justice, equality of income preference. Analysis of Latin Ob rometro approach explains the Peru case as per the context in Latin America.
Politics: how politics, corruption and political instability affect inequalities.
Political instability refers to a situation of leadership change that is sudden, significant and potential to sudden change due to the unplanned leadership changes which are likely to affect the policymakers plan and horizons. The abrupt change leads to a short optimal term on microeconomic performance. Instability affects the business environment both small micro-enterprises and corporate business environment. The resulting impact is to the investors that tend to lower consumer confidence, hence the high level of instability in political leadership or regime lowers the economic growth. In relation to the private investment, instability in social-political areas give rise to the uncertainty I the economic and political environment. This results in high risks within the economic field as the key players suffer insecurity. The investors lower there motivation due to fear if unknown especially in case of change of economic- policies causing them to incur a loss. Hence there is a general decrease in the investment rate. The relationship between politics and economy is that, economics deal with resources distribution such that there is the satisfaction of the material want in the society, enhancing the well-being of the society. In the other hand, a high degree of corruption suppresses economic growth and overall development. The inefficient allocation of resources results in a shadow economy. This is characterized by low-quality sectors
The inequality and vulnerability at different levels such as politics, economic and social challenges have a key impact on the migrants.
