Caracteristicas de Guatemala como país subdsarrollado
A. Crecimiento elevado de la población.

1. Cómo: La población Guatemalteca (especialmente en el área rural) no está bien informada acerca de las precauciones que se deben tomar para disminuir el índice de natalidad ya que este está creciendo demasiado rápido. Hay muchos niños pequeños trabajando a muy temprana edad. Varias familias viven en hacinamiento. Hay casas en donde viven siete familias con cinco o seis miembros como mínimo. Esto es realmente preocupante. Además, se suman los problemas de falta de agua entubada y otros servicios, aunados al poco espacio donde viven. Las familias en el área rural tienen demasiados hijos y no tienen los recursos económicos para cuidar la salud de estos y por lo tanto, varios de estos mueren de enfermedades que pudieron haber sido tratadas. En los países subdesarrollados, la población es joven y se supone que esto es bueno porque hay mano de obra en abundancia. El problema es que no hay educación ni recursos para que le población pueda progresar.

2. Dónde: en toda la República de Guatemala.

3. Con Quien: Con todos los habitantes del país de Guatemala (especialmente en el área rural).

4. Cuando: 27 de febrero del 2003.

5. Posible solución:

Lo que se podría hacer en este caso para solucionar este gran problema sería educar a la población acerca de las prevenciones que deben tomar para no tener tantos hijos por familia. Se debe informarles acerca de los métodos anticonceptivos y enseñarles a usarlos.

Hay que hacerles ver el problema que están causando a toda la población y las posibilidades y oportunidades que tendrían sus hijos si fueran educados de manera apropiada.

B. Amplitud de formas de subempleo, altas tasas de desempleo y trabajo infantil.

1. Cómo: En Guatemala el subempleo se ha convertido en una salida alterna, los guatemaltecos por falta de fuentes de trabajo y oportunidades venden productos en las calles. En Guatemala más de 188 mil personas están desempleadas, esto equivale a un 6%. El 40% que equivale a un

    Latinos are constituted as the largest minority group in the United States due to high immigration and birth rates. Roberto Suro’s book discusses the changing social and economic policies in this country in accordance to the emergence of the Latino population. Latinos in the US, especially the younger generations and the children of immigrants, are closely tied to teenage pregnancies, gangs, and drug dealing. It is very clear that the Latino migrant experience is very different according to each respective community. As we see, the Cuban community in Miami is in some ways an exception to the stereotypes associated with Latinos that go hand in hand with the downward social and economic mobility of this population. The Guatemalan migrant experience in Suro’s book is closely linked to this idea of Latinos creating transnational networks, as there was a huge influx of Guatemalans into the Huston area. Suro outlines possible forms of stopping the flow of illegal immigration into the US. On of the main arguments in this research is the idea of short-term gains vs. long terms costs which is what Suro says is what Latino bring to the United States. His views on potential tactics that could be taken by the United States government to punish illegal immigration would somewhat be too costly but in the long run this country…

    During the 1930s, the United States of America fell into a depression, which affected the whole world. The United States of America being one of the most dominate countries in the world, left many other nations to rely on them for economic and social growth. Once the United States fell into this depression, others did too, leaving them to deal with a catastrophe on their own. It was a huge social and economical crisis for every country all around the world. For countries like Guatemala, during and after the depression was a remarkable time. Guatemala went through multiple presidents with different ideas to where they think which path Guatemala should take. During this time, the United States of America accepted some of Guatemala’s presidents. With presidential elections, groups arise and for many their main goal is help indigenous Guatemalans some dignity after all the humiliation and misery they been through.…

    La razón principal por el hecho de que las mujeres están a punto de sufrir de un ataque de nervios es que los hombres en las vidas de ellas son débiles e inútiles. Iván es un cobarde, quien está demasiado atemorizado de confrontar a Pepa y por esa razón no va al departamento de Pepa para colectar sus valija llena de su pertenecías. El no tiene las agallas para decirle a Pepa que la va dejar y se va ir de viaje con otra mujer. Igualmente, no tuvo las agallas de decirle que él tenía un hijo con su primera esposa. Lo más fácil para Iván es evitar a Pepa y esconderse para poder deshacerse de sus responsabilidades no solo con ella pero también con su hijo Carlos. Su cobardía e irresponsabilidad son demostradas en su facilidad de dejar sus problemas y responsabilidades atrás sin preocupación. Es más, durante la mayoría de la película él esta ausenta y parece ser un fantasma. El carácter y las acciones cobardes de Iván no son típicos de un hombre tradicional, el cual tomaría responsabilidad por sus acciones y por lo seguro no se escondería de una mujer.…

    They make sure Latino mothers can understand what is happening by having translators and make the surveys third grade level because most mothers had low education. The question they asked the mother and siblings were not bias and relevant to their lives. Although, there were some flaws in the study such as, the family disruption can be father of the baby moving in, financial problems, and teenager transition to parent. Since the researcher stated that younger sister had more impact than younger brother, they should have calculated between the siblings and difference of gender. Also, the loss of participants could have affected the result because they still included 243 participants instead of the 196 participants. In the future studies, the research should considered more of the age of the parenting teen and younger siblings. They should examine changes in father- sibling relationship. Instead of using low income Mexican Americans, they should study middle class Mexican Americans because would it be the same as low income? Even though adolescent’s childbearing affects the family, can the sibling’s friends also affect them as…

    Driving through Guatemala and talking to locals in Guatemala opened my eyes to the agriculture. Mostly everything that I saw was similar to the information that I found during the research in my presentation. But seeing what I learned about opened my eyes to the what the country of Guatemala was dealing with. Thought my time while driving through Guatemala I began to discover many interesting things about Guatemala. I noticed that all the farming fields seemed to take over the landscape. It seemed that there were just farming areas nestled in every which corner on the side of the mountains. I thought what happened to all the trees. It seemed that they had all been cut down. While in Guatemala I learned that many of the families that own the…

    This problem can be seen in the students that live in the Rio Grande Valley, also known as “The Valley”. “[The Valley] is a low-income, majority-Latina/o, border, rural community” with significantly lower high-school graduation rates and college attendance rates than the rest of the state (Cabrera, López, and Sáenz 233). The lower percentages of students from this area can be attributed to barriers such as “financial difficulties, teachers limited in their abilities to teach college knowledge, and the inaccessibility of counselors” (Cabrera, López, and Sáenz 239). The reason why many students face financial difficulties when they are trying to go to college is that many of these are from low-income families. The limited ability of teachers in The Valley to teach college knowledge can be attributed to the fact that schools in the area emphasize standardized testing, as “high school courses were heavily focused on preparing students for the [TAKS] exams,” leaving teachers with little time to teach about knowledge and skills necessary for college (Cabrera, López, and Sáenz 240). As a result, students are not often equipped with skills that will help them in college. The inability of students to have access to counselors can be attributed to the feeling that many students have “that there were too few school counselors given…
