Humanities 2018
Discrimination
The five most common cases of discrimination are retaliation discrimination, racial discrimination, gender discrimination, disability discrimination and age discrimination.
Racism also falls into the category of discrimination, so be sure to not mix either of them up.
Individuals or an organisation are discriminating against you if they treat you differently from everyone else because of something about you that they don’t respect. Discrimination can be a horrible and hurtful experience and, in many instances, it’s against the law.
Civics
To elaborate on the topic of
civic duties
, here are some examples:
Paying taxes
Going to school
Serving as a witness in a court case
Selective service
There are also examples of civic governments:
Democracy
Non-democratic
Oligarchy
Monarchy
Dictatorship
Civics is the body of knowledge related to the organisation and workings of society. Civic duties include, for example, obeying the laws of the country, paying the taxes levied by the government, or serving on a jury or as a witness in court.
Citizenship
Citizenship rights involve activities like these:
SOCIAL: Donating blood to the Red Cross
ECONOMIC: Pay income and sales taxes

Naturalism Citizenship
Citizenship is the body of knowledge related to the legal status of individuals within a state (includes rights & responsibility towards (like voting) & social/community involvement.).
Modern Society
Modern society is also based on how a group of people communicate and come to grips on real-life situations, such as how we deal with civil unrest, the corruption of young minds, riots, political debates, religious extremism, etc.
Modern society is also viewed on the factors that have changed through long periods of time. For example, in Australia, lots of things have changed since the 1700s, when Captain James Cook 'founded' Australia.
Modern society is the current political, lifestyle, socialisation, artistic, educational, financial and health state. It is also stated as the lifestyle and events of most residents of a province, city, state or town.
Law
Law is what keeps the inhabitants of a province safe from harm, they are there to protect you. For example, if a man was to kill another, he would earn a lifetime (or shorter) sentence to prevent him from hurting anyone else. In my view, no one should be convicted of anything without a proper court case and irrefutable evidence, which has recently happened to a lot of people.
There are two main sources of law in Australia, case law or common law, based on the decisions of judges in the superior courts, and legislation, the law made by Parliament.
Law is a body of rules of conduct of binding legal force and effect, prescribed, recognized, and enforced by controlling authority.
Human Rights
The Universal Declaration on Human Rights in 1948 has been repeated in numerous international human rights conventions, declarations, and resolutions. For example, an event called the 1993 Vienna World Conference on Human Rights noted that it is the duty of States to promote and protect all human rights and fundamental freedoms, regardless of their political, economic and cultural systems.
The first and foremost Human Right was announced in September 1994: "We are all free and equal. We are all born free. We all have our own thoughts and ideas. We should all be treated in the same way."
Human rights are basically the responsibilities and roles that every human being is entitled to, no matter our race, gender, ethnicity, language or colour.
