APPROVED BY MEMBERS OF THE THESIS COMMITTEE: zr~COb Fried, Chairman Daniel/Scheans Tom Ne\-nnan Northeast Brazil is a region characterized by economic poverty and human misery. Poor ecological conditions con tribute to the nature of the dilemma, but another factor in the apparent cultural stagnation of the Northeast, may be the persistence of values and social practices traditiona.lly alig!1ed with the colonial sugar plantation system.

Paper We Map the Long-Term, Worldwide Shift in Gender Ratios Among Migrant Populations
Gender Ratios in Global Migrations, 1850-2000 J. Trent Alexander Minnesota Population Center University of Minnesota Katharine M. Donato Department of Sociology Vanderbilt University Donna R. Gabaccia Department of History and Immigration History Research Center University of Minnesota Johanna Leinonen Department of History University of Minnesota April 2008 Funding for this project has been provided by the University of Minnesota's Office of International Programs, the Minnesota Population Center and the University of Minnesota's Immigration History Research Center. The collection of the source data was supported by grants to the Minnesota Population Center from the National Institute for Child Health and Human Development and the National Science Foundation. 1 Introduction Scholars in many disciplines have observed that men historically far outnumbered women among international movers. Two of geographer E.G. Ravenstein's late- nineteenth century "laws of migration" asserted that (1) short-distance migrants generally outnumbered longer distance ones, and that (2) within-country moves were usually dominated by women and between-country moves were dominated by men. Although many geographers have critiqued and extended Ravenstein's work, these two often- repeated laws have rarely been challenged since they were written in the late 1800s. Many textbooks in demography and world history presented these theories as conventional wisdom for much of the twentieth century (e.g., Peterson 1969: 264; United Nations 1979: 4; Manning 2005: 11). In the early 1980s, however, researchers at the U.S. Department of Labor and elsewhere pointed toward a "remarkable shift" in migrant gender ratios, from women constituting less than one-third of all U.S.-bound migrants in 1900 to almost one-half in the 1970s (Houston et al. -
John J. Marchi Papers
John J. Marchi Papers PM-1 Volume: 65 linear feet • Biographical Note • Chronology • Scope and Content • Series Descriptions • Box & Folder List Biographical Note John J. Marchi, the son of Louis and Alina Marchi, was born on May 20, 1921, in Staten Island, New York. He graduated from Manhattan College with first honors in 1942, later receiving a Juris Doctor from St. John’s University School of Law and Doctor of Judicial Science from Brooklyn Law School in 1953. He engaged in the general practice of law with offices on Staten Island and has lectured extensively to Italian jurists at the request of the State Department. Marchi served in the Coast Guard and Navy during World War II and was on combat duty in the Atlantic and Pacific theatres of war. Marchi also served as a Commander in the Active Reserve after the war, retiring from the service in 1982. John J. Marchi was first elected to the New York State Senate in the 1956 General Election. As a Senator, he quickly rose to influential Senate positions through the chairmanship of many standing and joint committees, including Chairman of the Senate Standing Committee on the City of New York. In 1966, he was elected as a Delegate to the Constitutional Convention and chaired the Senate Judiciary Subcommittee on Constitutional Issues. That same year, Senator Marchi was named Chairman of the New York State Joint Legislative Committee on Interstate Cooperation, the oldest joint legislative committee in the Legislature. Other senior state government leadership positions followed, and this focus on state government relations and the City of New York permeated Senator Marchi’s career for the next few decades. -

INFORMATION TO USERS This reproduction was made from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technology has been used to photograph and reproduce this document, the quality of the reproduction is heavily dependent upon the quality o f the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help clarify markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “ Missing Page(s)” . I f it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark, it is an indication of either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, duplicate copy, or copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed. For blurred pages, a good image o f the page can be found in the adjacent frame. I f copyrighted materials were deleted, a target note will appear listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part o f the material being photographed, a definite method of “sectioning” the material has been followed. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand comer o f a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. I f necessary, sectioning is continued again-beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. -
