Here's some original text from page xviii of
Culture of Fear by Barry Glassner One of the
paradoxes of a culture of fear is that serious
problems remain widely ignored even though they
give rise to precisely the dangers that the
populace most abhors. Poverty, for example,
correlates strongly with child abuse, crime and
drug abuse. Income inequality is also associated
with adverse outcomes for the society as a whole.
For each of the following, is it an acceptable
paraphrase or is it plagiarism?

• Is the following it an acceptable paraphrase or
  is it plagiarism?
• A paradox of a culture of fear is that real
  problems are seriously ignored because they give
  rise to precisely the dangers that the people
  most abhor. For example, poverty correlates
  greatly with child abuse, crime and drugs.
  Different incomes are also associated with
  inverse outcomes for the society as a whole.

• Is the following it an acceptable paraphrase or

• According to Glassner, a culture of fear appears
  paradoxical because it treats only symptoms
  rather than the underlying causes of serious
  social problems. This means, in a culture of
  fear, our actions often make even worse the very
  problems were trying to solve. Theres a strong
  positive correlation between poverty and child
  abuse, crime and drugs. By focusing on child
  abusers, burglars and drug dealers rather than
  the income inequality a culture of fear
  guarantees these social problems will continue.
