Social Issues

Social Issue "A social problem is a social condition (such as poverty) or a pattern of behavior (such as substance abuse) that harms some individuals or all people in a society and that a sufficient number of people believe warrants public concern and collective action to bring about change" (Kendall, D. Social Problems in a Diverse Society (4th ed). Boston: Pearson, 2007, p. 4.

Social Issue "A social problem exists when people subjectively perceive and have empirical evidence to show that social conditions combine at a local, societal, or global level to cause personal problems" (Crone, J. How Can We Solve Our Social Problems. Thousand Oaks, CA: Pine Forge Press, 2007, p. 2)
