  • Race, Migration, and Chinese and Irish Domestic Servants in the United States, 1850-1920
    An Intimate World: Race, Migration, and Chinese and Irish Domestic Servants in the United States, 1850-1920 A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Andrew Theodore Urban IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Advised by Donna Gabaccia and Erika Lee June 2009 © Andrew Urban, 2009 Acknowledgements While I rarely discussed the specifics of my dissertation with my fellow graduate students and friends at the University of Minnesota – I talked about basically everything else with them. No question or topic was too large or small for conversations that often carried on into the wee hours of the morning. Caley Horan, Eric Richtmyer, Tim Smit, and Aaron Windel will undoubtedly be lifelong friends, mahjong and euchre partners, fantasy football opponents, kindred spirits at the CC Club and Mortimer’s, and so on. I am especially grateful for the hospitality that Eric and Tim (and Tank the cat) offered during the fall of 2008, as I moved back and forth between Syracuse and Minneapolis. Aaron and I had the fortune of living in New York City at the same time in our graduate careers, and I have fond memories of our walks around Stuyvesant Park in the East Village and Prospect Park in Brooklyn, and our time spent with the folks of Tuesday night. Although we did not solve all of the world’s problems, we certainly tried. Living in Brooklyn, I also had the opportunity to participate in the short-lived yet productive “Brooklyn Scholars of Domestic Service” (AKA the BSDS crew) reading group with Vanessa May and Lara Vapnek.

  • In Guadalajara, Mexico: Rethinking South-South Migration Flows
    Chinese “Paisanos” in Guadalajara, Mexico: Rethinking South-South Migration Flows Aida Patricia Palma Carpio Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree Bachelor of Arts with Honors in International Relations, Brown University Primary Thesis Advisor: Dr. Matthew Gutmann Secondary Thesis Advisor: Dr. David Lindstrom Honors Seminar Instructor: Dr. Claudia Elliott PROVIDENCE, RI MAY 2016 © Copyright 2016 by Aida Patricia Palma Carpio Signatures iii ABSTRACT What are the processes and mechanisms that initiate, perpetuate, and give continuity to long-distance South-South migration flows? Scholarship of international migration has historically emphasized the study of South-North Migration. While South-South Migration is not new, research over the past decade finds that it consists primarily of back-and-forth seasonal labor and transit route migration occurring predominantly at an intra-regional level. However, these studies do not account for newer South-South Migration flows between countries that are geographically distanced. I argue that long-distance South- South Migration is best understood as long-term and economically driven migration. Migrants undergo high initial costs expecting to find opportunities of capital accumulation and upward mobility in the receiving society. Based on nearly three months of ethnographic research in 2015, I evaluate the case of Chinese restaurant and cultural shop sector immigrants in Guadalajara, Mexico. I find that social connections are fundamental to long-distance South-South movements, that low-skill international migrants find opportunities in urban pockets of development in the Global South, and that long-distances encourage family immigration—which promotes long-term settlement in the receiving society. Thus, long-distance South-South Migration exhibits similar traits to South-North Migration, and these similarities display beginnings of a bottom-up globalization processes in the Global South.

Hogan: Cultural Creolization, Optimism, and National Identity in <em>Pao</em> While scholars have long considered Caribbean nations as mixed, blended, and multicultural societies, acknowledging the role of many different ethnic, national, and racial groups in the formation and ongoing lives of these societies, the Chinese Caribbean community has received comparatively less attention than the Afro- or Indo-Caribbean ones. Yet many Caribbean countries experienced significant Chinese migration. Beginning in the nineteenth century and through the twentieth century, thriving Chinese communities could be found in Guyana, Jamaica, Trinidad, and other islands. The Chinese Jamaican community was both representative and unique: arriving in Jamaica at the end of the 1800s, Chinese immigrants established prosperous shops and other businesses throughout the island.

  • The Perspectives of Scientific Research Seen by Grigore C
    THE PERSPECTIVES OF SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH SEEN BY GRIGORE C. MOISIL FORTY YEARS AGO EUFROSINA OTLĂCAN* Motto: “There are people whose contribution to the progress of mankind is so great that their biography is put into the shade, the life is hidden away by the work”. (Gr. C. Moisil at the W. Sierpinski’s death) Abstract. The creation, the personality and the entire activity of the Romanian mathematician Grigore C. Moisil (1906–1973) are illustrative of the idea of universality in science and cultural integration. Moisil obtained his degree in mathematics at the University of Bucharest and became a PhD in 1929, with the thesis “The analytic mechanics of continuous systems.” The three years of courses at the polytechnic school did not finalize with an engineer diploma, they only meant an opening towards the understanding of technical problems. The scientific area of Moisil’s work covered, among other domains, the functional analysis applied to the mechanics of continuous media, to differential geometry or to the study of second order equations with partial derivatives. One of the most original parts of Moisil’s creation is his work in mathematical logic. Within this frame Moisil developed his algebraic theory of switching circuits. By his theory of “shaded reasoning”, G. C. Moisil is considered, besides L. Zadeh, one of the creators of the fuzzy mathematics. Apart from his scientific and teaching activities, Moisil was a highly concerned journalist, present in many newspapers and on television broadcasts. Keywords: Grigore C. Moisil, mathematical creation, mathematical analysis, mathematical logic, differential geometry, physics, mechanics. 1.

  • Examining Race in Jamaica: How Racial Category and Skin Color Structure Social Inequality
    Race and Social Problems https://doi.org/10.1007/s12552-020-09287-z Examining Race in Jamaica: How Racial Category and Skin Color Structure Social Inequality Monique D. A. Kelly1 © Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature 2020 Abstract Jamaica’s social inequality is primarily held to be class-based due, in part, to the country’s perceived ethno-racial homoge- neity and to the particularities of its colonial past. However, whether “race” also systemically shapes inequality in Jamaica remains understudied. To address this empirical lacuna, I examine the efects of two measures of race—categorical race and skin color—on years of schooling and household amenities using data from the 2014 AmericasBarometer social survey. I fnd that access to household amenities and years of schooling are starkly structured by racial category, and even more robustly by skin color, across all dimensions. The fndings challenge long-held assumptions that marginalize race with regards to social inequality in Jamaica. They also suggest the importance of a multidimensional approach to studying the efects of race for understanding stratifcation dynamics in Jamaica. As an English-speaking, majority Afro-descent society in the Caribbean, the study’s fndings add a unique country case for comparison to Latin America and may also speak to other similar contexts in the region. Keywords Race · Skin color · Social inequality · Caribbean · Jamaica Inequality in the Anglo-Caribbean country of Jamaica is [We] are made up of…predominantly Negro or of substantial: about 20% of the population lives below the mixed blood, but also with large numbers of others, poverty line, while three-ffths of the country’s wealth is and nowhere in the world has more progress been held by only 10% of its population (World Bank 2013).

  • Culturing on the Borderlands—A Critical Ethnography On
    CULTURING ON THE BORDERLANDS—A CRITICAL ETHNOGRAPHY ON TAIWANESE AND CHINESE TRANSNATIONAL PRACTICES Hsin-I Cheng A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2006 Committee: Alberto González,, Advisor Robert M. Buffington Graduate Faculty Representative Bettina Heinz John T. Warren Copyright 2006 Hsin-I Cheng All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Alberto González The U.S.-Mexico border has long been a site for cultural intermix and struggles as the global territories become more connected for capital flows. Such a space has drawn researchers from various disciplines to understand the impacts of the high as well as unequal volume of traveling. This ethnography critically examines the everyday communicative activities enacted and cultural identities (per)formed by a group of Taiwanese and Chinese transnationalists who arrived to the borderlands of El Paso and Juárez in the beginning of the 21st century. Rather than viewing culture as static, this research approaches it as an active creature which changes and grows through communication—traveling and dwelling on the border. This dissertation narrates daily interactions where space such as El Paso is (re)constructed during daily interactions in relations to places of Taiwan, China, Mexico, and the United States. Moreover, these relationships are ordered hierarchically, thus places are fixed in to ranked spaces. This spatial hierarchy then serves as the logic determining which communicative activities are to be engaged in on the El Paso/ Juárez border. Drawing mainly from S. Hall, H. Bhabha, and G. Anzaldúa, cultural identities are understood as processes of hybridizations.
