Values and Beliefs



Each society or culture is distinct from all others because it has its own values and beliefs, in the twenty-first century societies have lost many traditions where are involved the values and beliefs of ancient societies, the current society has changed rasticamente.


In the case of Spain values and beliefs have beeing conserved, since as we see in cities such as Avila, Valencia, Barcelona and Madrid you see the typical spain of the previous decade while maintaining their beliefs and their values for example some of the major beliefs of spain society is the religion catholicism remains, as well as their values reflected in their customs and traditions in the way of life, another value is reflected by caring adult people are very well treated in society.


Society Spain has kept its values and beliefs, but even so with the passage of time is going to be losing or changing all their customs, traditions and ways of facing the world today. Spain is one of the only society in this decade that still retains its old values and beliefs.

Criminals



As we all know every country in the world has to do with the issue of criminals, but in the last decade the criminals has increased markedly. Each country has their problems in this regard, as well as how to assess the crime or given in case the values that have a criminal.


In the case of spain, the criminals are not very developed because the only problems that they face in this moment are the rasism and also as a rejection to tourists. But even so it is very controlled as any type of crime in spain is heavily punished, criminals obviously has its values which must be respected by the government, but these values are limited because after a crime is necessary a good sancion over this. Also a criminal that is highly recognized in spain Jaime Gimenez Arbe, he is a dangerous offender and robbery of banks Spanish known as "El Solitario". He attributed more than thirty robberies at gunpoint in banks throughout Spain, as well as the murder of a pair of Civil Guards in Castejón.


Finally we can say that Spain does not suffer a lot with this issue of criminality, Spain is considered a safe country and full of values which are respected. The criminal is a very sensitive issue that must be strongly controlled by the government to the country maintain its security.
