The paper used a literature review methodology to reflect on substance abuse trends, legislations, methods and strategies towards revealing their inherent weaknesses and shortfalls which are rendering NDMPs ineffective and/or unsuccessful in South Africa. The findings of the paper demonstrated that poor articulation of the NDMPS, poor boarder control mechanisms, corruption, emphasis on supply reduction and neglect of harm reduction strategies, lack of social capital and repugnant and unpalatable religious and cultural beliefs are some of the factors causing the NDMPs to continue to fail in their quest of rehabilitating South African environments of drugs. The paper concluded by proposing that, for NDMPS to be a success, South Africa needs to mobilize adequate social capital for NDMPs, make available enough financial resources for treatment and preventative work, upgrade boarder control systems, make treatment services easily available to disenfranchised groups including women, children and rural populations, create knowledge sharing platforms for those who work with addictions and build community based detoxification facilities.","PeriodicalId":334805,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF SOCIOLOGY AND SOCIAL ANTHROPOLOGY","volume":"80 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117256476","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This research aimed at assessing the awareness of Social Studies’ teachers in South-West Nigeria about the effects of economic and social integration in the region. Data were collected through self-administered questionnaires through the use of random sampling. The objectives of the research were to examine the perception and also to assess the awareness of Social Studies’ teachers on the economic and social integration in South-West Nigeria. Data analysis was conducted using descriptive statistics. The field survey confirmed that some of these barriers were notably political in nature. They include: cultural values, religion and beliefs, needs, social themes and economy. The findings also identified the search for solutions to these barriers faced by the people in South-West Nigeria by providing an insight for further research regarding the institutional weaknesses and policy issues in this part of the world. The implications of the findings were that unless the limitations named above are resolved, the economic and social integration in the South-West Nigeria will continue to experience poor economic growth and development. Recommendations to overcome these barriers are suggested.","PeriodicalId":334805,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF SOCIOLOGY AND SOCIAL ANTHROPOLOGY","volume":"97 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124458649","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The objectives of the study were: i) to investigate the impact of household characteristics on academic outcomes of students. ii) determine the relationship between access to home resources and academic achievement of students. Random sampling was used to select 60 males and females from first year diploma in plant production and bachelor qualifications. The range for result from first semester was categorized for all courses offered. The data obtained were analysed using logistic regression to determine relationship between the listed socio-economic variables and academic performance of participating students. Language of expression at home (β= -4.698, P≤ 0.022); Parental assistance (β=5.583, Pd≤ 0.028) and Home Learning Resources (β= 4.069, P≤ 0.045) were predictive of academic achievement respectively.

This study, therefore, showed a comparative analysis of students’ performance in Economics Concepts and other Social Studies Concepts with a view to determining the relevance of Economics Concepts among other Concepts in the Social Studies Curriculum. Descriptive research was carried out in twenty (20) junior secondary schools with 200 respondents in Nigeria. Two instruments whose reliability coefficient values are 0.78 and 0.82 were used. Data was analyzed using the Pearson Product Moment Correlation (PPMC) and t-test to determine the differences in students’ performance. The study showed that the inclusion of economics concepts into the content of social studies curriculum is justified and capable of helping to achieve the objectives of social studies but not in isolation of other concepts. The study concludes that the economics concepts in social studies curriculum is imminent, as the knowledge acquired from it by students is applied even after graduation at school to solve emergencies.","PeriodicalId":334805,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF SOCIOLOGY AND SOCIAL ANTHROPOLOGY","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130196655","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
