  • Volume Xxiii
    ANTHROPOLOGICAL PAPERS OF THE AMERICAN MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY VOLUME XXIII NEW YORK PUBLISHED BY ORDER OF THE TRUSTEES 1925 Editor CLARK WISSLER FOREWORD Louis ROBERT SULLIVAN Since this volume is largely the work of the late Louis Robert Sulli- van, a biographical sketch of this able anthropologist, will seem a fitting foreword. Louis Robert Sullivan was born at Houlton, Maine, May 21, 1892. He was educated in the public schools of Houlton and was graduated from Bates College, Lewiston, Maine, in 1914. During the following academic year he taught in a high school and on November 24, 1915, he married Bessie Pearl Pathers of Lewiston, Maine. He entered Brown University as a graduate student and was assistant in zoology under Professor H. E. Walters, and in 1916 received the degree of master of arts. From Brown University Mr. Sullivan came to the American Mu- seum of Natural History, as assistant in physical anthropology, and during the first years of his connection with the Museum he laid the foundations for his future work in human biology, by training in general anatomy with Doctor William K. Gregory and Professor George S. Huntington and in general anthropology with Professor Franz Boas. From the very beginning, he showed an aptitude for research and he had not been long at the Museum ere he had published several important papers. These activities were interrupted by our entrance into the World War. Mr. Sullivan was appointed a First Lieutenant in the Section of Anthropology, Surgeon-General's Office in 1918, and while on duty at headquarters asisted in the compilation of the reports on Defects found in Drafted Men and Army Anthropology.

  • Philippine Case Global Crisis Local Response March 2010 Vers
    International Labour Office Policy Integration Department Global Transmission Mechanisms and Local Policy Responses Philippine Cases Jude Esguerra 1 Paper for the Policy Coherence Forum Overcoming the jobs crisis and shaping an inclusive recovery: The Philippines in the Aftermath of the global economic turmoil 11 – 12 March 2010, Makati City, Philippines March 2010 1 The opinions expressed in this paper rests solely with the author 1 Executive Summary The impact of the Global Financial Crisis in the Philippines has been mild overall. This is due to the small size and stagnation of the economy's tradables sector (Medalla 2007, Lim 2009) and its limited exposure to global financial markets. There have been dramatic declines in the export sector in 2008 i; but again, the export sector, especially in the export processing zones, generates limited local value-added -- at twenty percent of export value -- and is largely located in the National Capital Region ii and its environs. Transmission mechanisms Export-related job losses in the capital and in the other urban areas will of course reverberate in the rest of the country because urban and rural economies continue to be linked by the long-term trend of rural-to-urban migration . (Quisumbing and Nieven, 2005, 2007). To the extent that migrants to urban areas remit to rural areas, the urban-rural migration link is one mechanism through which the largely-urban impact of the crisis is getting transmitted to rural areas. International migrants are a transmission mechanism for the crisis but, on the other hand, remittances have also been an important safety net in the past for idiosyncratic as well as locally and nationally correlated income shocks (Yang, D and H Choi 2005).

  • ADDRESSING ILLEGAL WILDLIFE TRADE in the PHILIPPINES PHILIPPINES Second-Largest Archipelago in the World Comprising 7,641 Islands
    ADDRESSING ILLEGAL WILDLIFE TRADE IN THE PHILIPPINES PHILIPPINES Second-largest archipelago in the world comprising 7,641 islands Current population is 100 million, but projected to reach 125 million by 2030; most people, particularly the poor, depend on biodiversity 114 species of amphibians 240 Protected Areas 228 Key Biodiversity Areas 342 species of reptiles, 68% are endemic One of only 17 mega-diverse countries for harboring wildlife species found 4th most important nowhere else in the world country in bird endemism with 695 species More than 52,177 (195 endemic and described species, half 126 restricted range) of which are endemic 5th in the world in terms of total plant species, half of which are endemic Home to 5 of 7 known marine turtle species in the world green, hawksbill, olive ridley, loggerhead, and leatherback turtles ILLEGAL WILDLIFE TRADE The value of Illegal Wildlife Trade (IWT) is estimated at $10 billion–$23 billion per year, making wildlife crime the fourth most lucrative illegal business after narcotics, human trafficking, and arms. The Philippines is a consumer, source, and transit point for IWT, threatening endemic species populations, economic development, and biodiversity.
