Mobility and Employment in Urban Southeast Asia
This study represents a new generation of inquiry that attempts to gain a better understanding of smaller urban places in the remote and frontier regions in Southeast Asia. A set of intriguing hypotheses attempting to unravel the complicated relationships between population movements and employment opportunities as they relate to the growth of certain urban places and the rural hinterland have been posited. The study is aimed at illuminating the …

Mobility and Employment in Urban Southeast Asia
"Migration and employment characteristics are compared for two intermediate-sized cities in Southeast Asia: Cebu, the Philippines, and Medan, Indonesia. Using samples of household interviews as a source of information, the basic characteristics of migrant heads of household in the two cities are examined. In addition the nature of the employment and the search for employment are analyzed and contrasted."
Mobility and Employment in Urban Southeast Asia
Circulation in the Philippines
Based on a survey of 2741 randomly selected households this study examines the characteristics and effects of circular migration. Individuals who participate in this type of migration are young relatively well educated single and economically motivated. Circulation is an alternative to permanent migration and should be accommodated by planners and policymakers. The setting for this case study is Cebu and Misamis Oriental provinces the Philippines…
The Invisible Minority
Automated Cognitive Mapping
Completion test cognitive maps based on a standardized base map can yield valuable information for large population subgroups that can be objectively compared. By automating the tedious chore of manual measurement of the designative characteristics on this type of cognitive map, large samples can be manipulated. A computer program, COGMAP, was developed to use a scan line technique that allows coding of any enclosed mapped image. The program will…
Appalachian Vernacular Regions
The name Appalachia has wide recognition across America. It is associated with the upland sections of at least 13 eastern states and has become associated with coal mining, poverty, welfare programs and traditional social values. But do the people who live within the region recognize Appalachia as a place that fits the name? A survey of college students in and adjacent to the region revealed that residents use a variety of directional and topogra…
Cognitive Maps of Appalachia
OGNITIVE maps influence the geographical relationships between persons and places. Individuals constantly interact with an environment that is too complex to comprehend or understand fully. Cultural values, needs, and experiences provide a context in which persons observe their environment and order or eliminate the information that they may garner from it. The sorted cognitive information is functional because it becomes the basis for certain ty…
The Role of Urban Squatter Settlements∗
Peripheral squatter settlements may play a negative or a positive role in the urbanization of developing countries. Squatter settlements in Cagayan de Oro, an intermediate-sized city in the southern Philippines, reveal that the role such settlements play depends largely on their age and location relative to urban jobs and amenities. Other significant socioeconomic variables are related to the age of the settlement. Older squatter settlements have…

Migration to the Slum and Squatter Communities of Cagayan de Oro City, The Philippines
With regard to Southeast Asia and especially the Philippines there have been several social scientists who have examined squatter and slum populations in the urban centers. An overview into the urban squatter phenomenon in Southeast Asia is provided by Jackson who states that squatters now comprise between a quarter and a third of the total population of most of the regions capitals (1974:24; see also Poethig 1971). In the Philippines several soc…
