SOCIAL CAUSE
ISSUE
Domestic According to the Duluth Domestic Abuse Intervention Project, there
Violence are 8 main methods of domestic abuse, particularly against women.
Against All of these, stem principally from control. It is generally agreed that
Women abusers harm their victims to control them. Viewed through a feminist
lens, it can be argued that men, empowered by a patriarchal society,
view women (consciously or unconsciously) as their lesser, their
servant, or even their property. This can lead them to desire and even
expect women to be obedient, unquestioning, and subservient.
Low wages According to Marxism- The value of goods is derived from “labor
among time” (the amount of time and effort spent on making goods), workers
workers therefore, produces the value of goods and services. This means that
the owners of businesses cannot give workers wages that equal the
value they produce. Otherwise, there would be no profit. To maximize
profits and maintain the services they provide, business owners pay
laborers only what is required to keep them working at the business.
This means that companies can pay some workers lower wages than
others (even if we all have to eat) because those workers, for reasons
such as desperation, a competitive job market, and few skills, require
less incentive to stay with a firm. See Capital: A Critique of Political
Economy, Volume 1, Chapter 1.
SOLUTION
According to Feminist Theory, in a patriarchal
society, the violence waged against women;
especially women who are in significant
relationships with men, be it their fathers, their
brothers, or their partners, there is a perceived
degradation and mockery of the status of the
concept of the woman. The woman in a man’s
world is stuck in a rock and a hard place. To
submit or to resist, to follow the whims of the
man, or to break free from the chains of the
patriarchy and the hands of their privileged
thumbs. The only real solution to domestic
violence, particularly for women, is to see the
system for what it is, without exception and
without mercy. To not spare the abusers and
their enablers. The fruit tree and its roots. We
must cut them down and burn them, leaving no
trace of their wickedness alive.
If we are to follow Marxist and Socialist theory,
then the best course of action for low wages
among workers, both men and women, then the
logical solution would be the concept of
unionizing/unionization. And according to
Pannekoek (1913), it is said that in order for
change to happen, the proletariat must gather
together in order for their presence and their
needs to be addressed. In a capitalist society, the
worker must open their eyes to the concept that
without them, the system of capitalism that the
world revolves around would crumble if there
were no workers left. So by unionizing and

Juvenile According to research done by the United Nations, juvenile
Delinquency delinquency is caused by a handful of social and environmental
factors in a child’s life, such as their economic situation, their family
life, their peers, and more. This aligns with the “Human-Environment
System” which states that humans do not exist in a vacuum, instead
they are a part of and thus molded by their environment.
Climate
Change
According to scientists, climate change is caused (PRIMARILY) by
environmentally damaging business practices. According to Marxist
theory, businesses must engage in environmentally damaging
practices as they need to put profit above all other goals. “The
partaking in the politics of the workplace, the
home, and government, the proletariat may gain
positive change by forming groups that show
their political and economic presence for better
wages and better treatment overall.
Applying the concepts of the Human-
Environment System and the concept/act of
psychoanalysis by Freud, the solution we may
bring to the acts of juvenile delinquency is to
first find the root cause of it. To find out if the
cause is trauma, a sense of rejection from
society, a warped view of the world as shaped
by the parents and others around them, and of
course, how systems of oppression work to
make these thoughts that turn into plans occur.
Slowly but surely, through putting the pieces
together, can concrete measures and changes be
made to further personal and societal
development which may lead to the eradication
of juvenile delinquency from the courts of law
and society in general.
In a more environmentalist approach, while also
applying concepts like Marxism and Human-
Environment Systems, the most grounded in-
reality solution we may bring to the table is the
interrogation and the elimination of the
practices that serve to only boost profit while
disregarding the lives and the states of workers
and the environment. To put in motion practices
that may damage the environment and only
boost the state of production in the name of
profit, there is a blatant disregard for the lives
of workers and the environment the services are
 being taken from. So by finding out why and
how to eliminate these harmful practices
bourgeoisie [...] has created more massive and more colossal (mining, oil harvesting at a large scale, mass
tree cuttings, plastic formulation) we can reduce
the effect of climate change and bring about
productive forces than have all preceding generations together. better social equality among workers and
business owners.

forces slumbered in the lap of social labor?”
