    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.

  • Calp Case Study Vouchers for Flood Relief in Cotobato City and Sultan Kudarat, ARMM, the Philippines Action Against Hunger / ACF International
    CaLP Case Study Vouchers for flood relief in Cotobato city and Sultan Kudarat, ARMM, the Philippines Action Against Hunger / ACF international The Cash Learning Partnership In response to a rapid-onset emergency, Action Against Hunger / ACF International, with funding from AECID, implemented a cash transfer program in Cotobato City, situated in the Autonomous Region of Muslim Mindanao in the Philippines. The project established a cash voucher program through local supermarkets to provide flood-affected people with essential food and non-food items. The program also piloted the use of debit cards for the first time in the Philippines. 1 Humanitarian context Background Natural disasters, particularly typhoons, are a common occurrence in the Philippines. In May and June 2011 tropical storms brought heavy rains that forced the Rio Grande de Mindanao over its banks which led to extensive flooding in Cotabato City and Sultan Kudarat in the Autonomous Region of Muslim Mindanao (ARMM). As a result, more than 20,000 people were forced to seek refuge at evacuation centers (ECs) in the area. ACF began working in the Philippines in 2000 to aid persons displaced due to conflict in the ARMM. Clashes between the national government and the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF), a local separatist ACF responded to this disaster with a cash transfer group, have contributed to instability within this program (CTP). A small proportion of beneficiaries also region. Political tension in the ARMM influenced ACF’s received debit cards in lieu of paper vouchers. While programming, as did the limited amount of time they this was ACF Philippines’ first experience with a CTP had to plan and implement the program.

  • 08 Incursion of Technology the Case of the Kaliwa Kanan Dam in Tanay, Rizal
    • INCURSION OF TECHNOLOGY: THE CASE OF THE KALIWA·KANAN DAMIN TANAY, RIZAL ~CTF Research Staff "/ The worldwide reorganization of industrial production brought about by changed conditions for capital expansion 1 on the one hand, and the rise of authoritarian states in the Third World on the other - serve as the context against which the nature and extent of the impact of technology in the Philippines could be better understood. It is only in understanding such a context that "development" and ''underdevelopment'' could be seen as related facets of a single process rather than separate phenomena. In the mid-fifties, a new scientific and technological revolution swept • the industrialized countries bringing forth a new basis in the international division of labor. 2 The innovations that emerged out of sophisticated high technology brought with them new conditions for the expansion of capital. 3 Technological advancement in transport, communications, data trans­ mission and processing rendered production control less dependent on the geographic distance of industrial locations.
