Abstract:
The Latinx audience is an increasingly important demographic for all television networks because they represent the fastest-growing U.S. minority. Therefore, producers attempt to target Latinx viewers who are more likely to watch the programs with their on-screen representation. This article examines how Hispanic women are portrayed in the comedy-drama series Devious Maids (Marc Cherry, 2013–2016). The first section presents the historical perspective of the ethnic typecasting for the roles of domestic workers in American motion pictures, accentuating the switch when Hispanic characters replac

Abstract:
This study examined differences in the attitudes of professional social workers regarding corporal punishment and the perception and reporting of child maltreatment, according to the worker’s ethnic group membership (Asian, Black American, Black Caribbean, Hispanic, and non-Hispanic White). Data were obtained by mailed questionnaires from 808 members of the New York City chapter of NASW. Data were analyzed by analysis of variance. Results indicate that approval of corporal punishment and perception of maltreatment differed according to ethnic group membership. However, ethnicity had no effect

Chronically ill patients commonly suffer from comorbid depression that negatively influences disease trajectories, reduces patients' quality of life, and renders them less able to cope with the challenges of daily living.

The burden of the COVID-19 pandemic has not been shouldered equally by American families.

For many Mexicans living in the United States, likewise, the Great Depression was a period of great angst and anxiety. As whites headed west from hard hit areas like Oklahoma and Kansas in search of work in the agricultural fields of California, they displaced many Mexican workers, as American businesses were often quick to hire wh

Through much struggle, the United Farm Workers of America leader César Chávez saw the hopes for better lives for Mexican, Mexican American, and Hispanic workers in the United States repeatedly raised, sunk, and revived again. Many factors contributed to this seemingly unending pendulum swing from hopefulness to despair, and the speech that Chávez delivered to the Commonwealth Club of California in 1984 highlights some of these factors. The address offers a window into Chávez’s keen awareness of the plights of the farmworkers whom he represented as well as of Latinos in general.

Abstract:
The Covid-19 pandemic has caused a series of hasty changes and spurred the digital transformation of various services. The pandemic itself has the greatest impact on the health system, which faces several challenges. Health-focused chatbots (“healthbots”) and apps have more and more important role in collecting quality information about health from credible sources and by doing so, they contribute to quality healthcare. Chatbots, which were used exclusively in connection with the pandemic, were used in more than thirty countries in the world. But there is limited evidence on how such healthbot

Abstract:
The proposal by Levy (2008) whereby a universal social insurance (USI) scheme is guaranteed to all workers, regardless of formality status, aims at abolishing the current contributory social insurance system and financing social insurance through value-added taxes instead (henceforth, the social security reform). We argue that this is a major reform as it breaks down the duality present in social insurance policy in Mexico and other Latin American countries and put an end to both informality and the truncated welfare state problem, in the sense that all workers would be covered by the same reg

Abstract:
This article compares inequality in US employment across social groups in the Great Recession and the COVID-19 pandemic. We develop an inequality measure that captures both how much employment declines during a recession and the persistence of those declines. The results show a significant shift of job loss from men in the Great Recession to women in the COVID-19 lockdown. White workers fare better than other racial/ethnic groups in both recessions. Black and Hispanic women are hit especially hard in the COVID-19 pandemic. With our job loss measure, less educated workers had modestly worse out

Abstract:
Latin American governments swiftly implemented income assistance programs to sustain families' livelihoods during COVID-19 stay-at-home orders. This paper analyzes the potential coverage and generosity of these measures and assesses the suitability of current safety nets to deal with unexpected negative income shocks in 10 Latin American countries. The expansion of pre-existing programs (most notably conditional cash transfers and non-contributory pensions) during the COVID-19 crisis was generally insufficient to compensate for the inability to work among the poorest segments of the population

Abstract:
The world has been increasingly interconnected both economically and politically ever since the end of the World War II. In addition to the increase in the movement of goods (international trade) and the movement of money (foreign investment), we have observed increased amount of movement of labor (international migration) in various parts of the world. For example, European countries, notably Germany and France, have accepted a large number of migrant workers from neighboring countries for many years. In the United States, huge number of migrant workers, both legal and illegal, have been flow

Abstract:
There are many aspects of the transportation industry that can be focused on, but the lack of resiliency is one of the most urgent. Enhancing resiliency and creative problem-solving is essential to the industry’s growth and survival. But it cannot happen without building a more diverse workforce. Women still make up a small fraction of transportation workers, and African American and Hispanic employees are even less represented. These disparities are increasingly pronounced in many senior positions, particularly in STEM fields. Meanwhile, the public transportation industry is experiencing a se

This growth occurred because rural in-migration was larger than declines in the natural rate (the number of births compared with the number of deaths) of population growth. The rural population is also experiencing declines in poverty.

Abstract:
In most Latin American countries, the upper and middle classes tend to meet their care needs through the market, resorting to options such as private schools and care centres, as well as the labour of domestic workers. However, these practices were affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and its containment measures. Drawing on a series of interviews with employers of domestic workers in Paraguay, this paper analyses the changes in convivial relations and arrangements regarding the distribution of care within households that outsource domestic chores and had to adapt to lockdown measures.
