The author witnessed the boundless sufferings and struggles endured by alcoholic families, especially the spouses and children of alcoholics. This is what inspired him to work on this topic. Hence the first praxis of the thesis focuses on the prevalence of alcoholism and its alarming repercussions throughout the world, but particularly in the United States and still more specifically in the State of Texas, where he carries out his ministry. Therefore, the first part of the thesis analyzes the social landscape of alcoholism and its effects especially on family systems in American life. The thesis then proceeds to analyze alcoholism as a genetic, physiological, and environmental disease that results in lack of control over drinking and obsessive-compulsive alcohol consumption in spite of its adverse consequences. The National Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence states that alcoholism \u201Cis a primary chronic disease with genetic, psychosocial, and environmental factors influencing its development and manifestations.\u201D This view of alcoholism is substantiated in the thesis by clinical psychologists, sociologists and other clinicians such as Peter Meyers, James R. Milam and Katherine Ketcham. This view talks about the various factors that contribute to the development of alcoholism among which the genetic factor of it is strongly emphasized. Virtually most credible clinical approaches advocate the remarkable role played by genetics in the development of alcoholism. However, there are also sociological, psychological, biological and economic factors that contribute to the formation of alcoholism. As many authors point out, the cause of alcoholism is a complex one, and a combination of various factors interplay in the formation of the disease. Alcoholism affects the user, the family and even the society in myriad of ways. Besides the biological consequences, everyone in the family including the alcoholic is affected mentally, emotionally and spiritually. Children carry it to the coming generations. Society is threatened by the drunken driving and violent behaviors of alcoholics. Human dignity which is sacred as it based on the Imago Dei, can be profaned by alcoholic behaviors." ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Classification" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "BV4596.A48 U53 2017" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Publication Date" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "2017" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Genre" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Academic theses" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Holding Location" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Barry University Archives and Special Collections" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Resource Identifier" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "BV4596.A48 U53 2017_UlahannanLukeKalarickal" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Language" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "English" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Permanent Link" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "http://sobekcmsrv.barrynet.barry.edu/AA00001708/00001" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Creator" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Ulahannan, Luke Kalarickal" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Note" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Thesis (D.Min.)--Barry University, 2017.", "Includes bibliographical references (leaves 302-313)." ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Physical Description" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "xiv, 315 leaves ; 28 cm" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Publisher" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Barry University" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Place of Publication" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Miami, Fla." ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Type" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Book" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Rights Management" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Copyright Rev.
