Education is vital for everyone. It is a door of great opportunity not only confined in working fields but it cultivates the most significant aspect in life in oneself that is, knowledge. People who succeed are those who go through the door of opportunity and face an abundance of challenges and trials to shape their mind and thinking process in order to see the world in multiple perspectives.
In the world these days, accessing to education does not seem to be a problem to the modern society however, there is still a remnant from the conventional and traditional thought resided in a certain particular society regarding education and women especially in the third world countries in which women are being discriminated in many facets. For example,

The main focus of Aristotle 's idea is to create a just society or to achieve a good life (end). To have a just society is when everything is placed in order. Everyone including men or women have their own specific role to keep the state just. The role of women can be understood when the importance of household is being placed at an ultimate level of understanding. Family institution or household cannot be abolished because that is where root or the source of happiness to achieve in the end; where human beings have their mind relaxed, quality time is spent and interaction with family members. Family institution trains men to be a rational being. It is due to our natural instinct is insperable. Family as claimed by Plato as the source of destruction. However, Aristotle totally against it by saying, family is where the good things are trained or the cause of all causes. Hence, one thing may lead to another. It will help men to be a good or moral person, who makes a good judgement, performs their duty efficiently and to be loyal to the state, and those are for instance. When this institution is abolished, that causes humans ' important dimension lose and they will long for it. A family institution or household plays a very vital role in order to keep everything else
In the late 19th and early 20th century, family was the foundation and core of society in America (Hussung). During this period of time, the wife was in charge of raising the children and cleaning the house, while the husband worked and provided protection for the family. A strong family unit was something highly regarded and looked upon in society.
Many supporters of women’s education were opposed to women rising as social or political equals of their male counterparts. The rationalization of women’s rights to education were based on religion and sexism rather than gender equality as a whole. Even popular advocates discouraged women leaving their current social-spheres. Because of this, higher education was not a leading cause of the woman suffrage
I agree with James Baldwin because he gives lots of good reason of what is education and what education should need to be. For example he said we could look at the world for our self when we are educate. Also make our own decision and said what we feel or think about the thing that are going around us. Education is the things that make our dream come true and if we want to be something in our future than we need education to continue my dream. We also need education to become an independent our self.
Typically, society and family are the forerunners on what is believed by each new generation, leaving little room for change. Having a system based in tradition could, and most likely will, result in poor outcomes. Traditionally, women are seen as the weaker sex, the homemaker. This began to pose a problem when there became need for women to go out and find work in order to keep their families and themselves alive. Within the United States, immigration played a role in this.
Education is the core of life. Ever since the establishment of public schoolings it became the social norm for children and older to seek education. The reason varies. Although, an education means to gain insightful experiences or to either gain or take guidance, there are more than just two meanings. From the essays examined: “Frank Carothers and Ted Erlandson, Loyola University”, “Suddenly I Felt Really Strange” both by Mike Rose, and “Five Ways to Wisdom” by Otto Friedrich, which shares different perspective of education and the means to be an educated person.
What is the difference between a dystopian society to our society? How about the similarities between the two societies? There are definitely many discernible unorthodoxness in a dystopian society versus the “real world” like the fact, that a dystopian society is more grotesque, to the point that it’s boring. On the other hand, there are plenty enough similarities like, how both societies strive for better, a utopia. In other words, dystopia compared to society, more specifically dystopian society, education systems, rules/laws, and family between our society’s education systems, rules/laws, and family, is substantially different, but there are some associations that could be made.
In many countries living in extremely poor conditions, not only is basic health an issue but also the lack of education. Although it is a necessity, “more than 72 million children of primary education age are not in school and 759 million adults are illiterate” (Rights to Education 1). The deprivation of education should be taken serious if a change is wanted. People need to become aware of how important education is and the benefit that it has.
The significance of education cannot be stated enough, which is an investment to a better future. Getting an education is one of the most powerful things a person can ever obtain. It is crucial to the overall development of the individual and the society as a whole. When individuals do not have the option of getting an education due to the cost of the schools as well as the lack of schools itself. For those living in poverty it can be difficult to earn the same amount of education as other people who are considered middle or high class.
Through the socialisation of children, the family reproduces both labour power and a false ideology which keeps the capitalists system going. ‘Families thus support the concentration of wealth and reproduce the class structure in each succeeding generation (Macionis and Plummer 2002:440). Engles indicated that families turn women into the sexual and economic property of men. Woman perform unpaid work in the home that would otherwise cost a lot to those who benefit from it. Conflict theorists have seen the family as a social arrangement benefiting men more than women, allowing men to maintain a position of power.
In Book V of Plato’s “The Republic”, Socrates introduced the “Three Waves” and as discussed in class, these three waves pertained to the three reforms to the state necessary to transform it on what is or what it ought to be. The “three waves” of Socrates are the equality of women, community of wives and children and the emergence of the philosopher-king (Jowett, 2000). One of the three waves that Socrates proposed is the community of wives and children or the abolition of the family. As discussed in class, Socrates pushed for the abolition of the family because the family, according to him is the source of disunity in the society thus, the community of wives and children is a way of achieving the greatest good in the state.
This meaning that there would be a tight relationship between the individual and the state. The abolition of the family would also allow for every individual to find the skill they are truly best at with out the influence of the skills of their parents. Proposal 2 Conclusion: In the ideal society, there should be an abolition of the family, in order to allow for every individual to find their place in the natural division of labor and for individuals to feel as though their whole society is one individual. Socrates explains the abolition of the family as the women belonging to all men, and children belonging to everyone.
Public spaces do not help men and women to meet their needs because they must be commensurate with women 's need to feel secure and not to promote private spaces. The family maintains relations between the family at home and harmony because they manipulate the hierarchy of the family. To meet each other 's needs in public places and live happily in local places, manipulating and removing sex from buildings drives men and women away and destroys
Here we shall analyse the educational background of the respondents to have an idea about women’s education. Out of the total sample of 20 Meo women interviewed 15 women were educated and 5 were illiterate. 35 percent were highly qualified and acquired M.A, B. Ed degrees. 40 percent of the respondents were degree holders in various disciplines of Arts, science and commerce.
Social Problems in Societies Social problems are issues which are considered to affect majority if not all members of a society either directly or indirectly. Whenever people come to live together in a social setting, conflict arises from their differences in opinions regarding political issues, religion, ethnic issues, cultural practices and other health and hygiene issues. In such a situation, we can say a society inevitably develops social problems. The various social issues present today vary from society to society, and as such, we cannot say that all societies face similar social issues.
Malcolm X once said “Education is our passport to the future, for tomorrow belongs to the people who prepared for it today.” In the western world education plays a vital role in shaping our future; it determines if we will survive or fail in the world we created for ourselves. Our world is constantly changing and it requires a society that is well versed in understanding the problems deriving from cultural differences and tolerance of one another’s beliefs and perceptions. With the power of education we are able to deal with the problems of economic, government, religion and culture differences.
