There were no academic programs producing certified demographers, no body of theory and methods that all agreed constituted the field, no consensus on which population problems posed the most serious threat to the nation or human welfare more generally.

Weeks (PAA Historian, 1994 to present) With the collaboration of the following members of the PAA History Committee: David Heer (2004 to 2007), Paul Demeny (2004 to 2012), Dennis Hodgson (2004 to present), Deborah McFarlane (2004 to 2018), Karen Hardee (2010 to present), Emily Merchant (2016 to present), and Win Brown (2018 to present) HENRY S.

CAREER HIGHLIGHTS: Henry Shryock grew up in Baltimore, Maryland, where he was born in 1912. He received the B.A. in mathematics from St. John's College, Annapolis, Maryland, in 1932; did graduate work in sociology at Duke University; and received the Ph.D. in sociology from the University of Wisconsin in 1937. In the fall of 1936 he joined the newly established Office of Population Research at Princeton as its first Research Associate.

  • Immigration and Assimilation: the Greeks of Lowell
    tT Λ ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to express my appreciation to Dr. J. Oscar Alers for all his invaluable assistance throughout this study. With­ out his continuous suggestions, advice, comment, and la­ borious working over the manuscript, the present study would never have been completed. Dr. Seymour Leventman has also made many valuable sug­ gestions and comments. I am also deeply grateful to the forty respondents for their contribution. Special thanks go to the Reverend John Sarantos of the Greek Orthodox Church of the Holy Transfiguration in Lowell, who gave much of his time and shared many of his immigration and experiences. assimilation: PREFACE Among modern nations the United States presents the Greeks a classic example of the problems and opportunities of immigration. The entire course of American his­ of Lowell tory has been shaped by successive waves of im­ migrants, representing diverse nationalities from the whole world. Almost every national group has taken its place in American culture. Thesis Upon settling in a strange land, the new immigrant faces several serious crises. He is legally and socially an alien. He embodies a cultural heritage that in­ cludes a different language, political tradition, val­ by ues and goals. He brings a strange style and standard of living. He expresses a temperament which allows Eleni Drakopoulou him to accept change or reject it. The life of the new Lawyer, Member of immigrant is precarious. Athens Bar Association In view of this situation certain practical and theo­ retical factors intervene concerning his adjustment. The main purpose of this thesis is to investigate the problem of assimilation with respect to a particular national group and place: the Greek minority in Lowell, Massachusetts.

Weeks, Chair (PAA Historian, 1994 to present) Paul Demeny David Heer Dennis Hodgson Deborah McFarlane 2005 ABOUT THE PAA ORAL HISTORY PROJECT AND THESE INTERVIEWS This series of interviews with past presidents and secretary-treasurers and a few others for the oral history project of the Population Association of America is the brainchild of Anders Lunde, without whom PAA would scarcely have a record of its 60year history. Dismayed by the dearth of usable PAA files he inherited as secretary-treasurer in 1965-68, Andy later determined to capture at least the reminiscences of some of PAA's longest-time members. When written pleas yielded few results, he set about doing taped interviews with past presidents and secretary-treasurers and conducted over a dozen (with help from Abbott Ferriss and Harry Rosenberg) between 1973 and 1979. Andy also assembled core records of meetings, membership numbers and officers and Board members since PAA's founding in 1931. He established PAA's official archives and arranged--with the help of Tom Merrick and Conrad Taeuber--for their cataloguing and deposit in the Georgetown University library. [Note: the archives were removed from Georgetown University in the late 1990s, and are now housed in a storage unit rented by the Population Association of America, accessible through the Executive Director of the PAA.] With Con Taeuber, he organized the "PAA at Age 50" session at the 1981 50th anniversary meeting in Washington, which produced four valuable papers on early PAA history by Frank Notestein, Frank Lorimer, Clyde Kiser, and Andy himself (published in Population index, Fall 1981).

American Sociology and the Genealogy of its Missing Women on Wikipedia Wei Luo, Julia Adams and Hannah Brueckner “People just don't vanish and so forth.” “But she has.” “What?” “Vanished.” “Who?” “The old dame.” … “But how could she?” “What?” “Vanish.” “I don't know.” “That just explains my point. People just don't disappear into thin air.” --- Alfred Hitchcock, The Lady Vanishes (1938)1 INTRODUCTION In comparison to many academic disciplines, sociology has been relatively open to women since its founding, and seems increasingly so. Yet many notable female sociologists are missing from the public history of American sociology, both print and digital. The rise of crowd- sourced digital sources, particularly the largest and most influential, Wikipedia, seems to promise a new and more welcoming approach.

  • Public Sociologies / 1603 Public Sociologies: Contradictions, Dilemmas, and Possibilities*
    Public Sociologies / 1603 Public Sociologies: Contradictions, Dilemmas, and Possibilities* MICHAEL BURAWOY, University of California, Berkeley Abstract The growing interest in public sociologies marks an increasing gap between the ethos of sociologists and social, political, and economic tendencies in the wider society. Public sociology aims to enrich public debate about moral and political issues by infusing them with sociological theory and research. It has to be distinguished from policy, professional, and critical sociologies. Together these four interdependent sociologies enter into relations of domination and subordination, forming a disciplinary division of labor that varies among academic institutions as well as over time, both within and between nations. Applying the same disciplinary matrix to the other social sciences suggests that sociology’s specific contribution lies in its relation to civil society, and, thus, in its defense of human interests against the encroachment of states and markets. In 2003 the members of the American Sociological Association (ASA) were asked to vote on a member resolution opposing the war in Iraq. The resolution included the following justification: “[F]oreign interventions that do not have the support of the world community create more problems than solutions . Instead of lessening the risk of terrorist attacks, this invasion could serve as the spark for multiple attacks in years to come.” It passed by a two thirds majority (with 22% of voting members abstaining) and became the association’s official position. In an opinion poll on the same ballot, 75% of the members who expressed an opinion were opposed to the war. To assess the ethos of sociologists * This article was the basis of my address to the North Carolina Sociological Association, March 5, 2004.
