African Businessmen and Development in Zambia

Originally published in 1979. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technolog…

Methods. A telephone survey assessed substance use and attitudes across 41 communities in an evaluation of a national community-based demand reduction program. Three waves of data were collected from more than 42 000 respondents. Results. Measur…
Does Neighborhood Matter? Family, Neighborhood, and School Influences on Eighth-Grade Mathematics Achievement
This paper explores ways by which neighborhoods and schools may influence the mathematics achievement of eighth grade students. We use data from the National Educational Longitudinal Study (NELS: 88) and combine it with U.S. Census data at the level of students' residential zip codes. These data allow us to analyze simultaneously all aspects of students' lives: their families, neighborhoods, and schools. Our findings suggest that “bringing neighb…
The Assassination of New York
Robert Fitch argues that, within a generation, New York City has been transformed from the richest city in the world to one of the poorest in North America. The pillars of its economy - Macy's, The Daily News, Citibank, Olympia and York, the Trump organization - have cracked or collapsed. Today, the officially poor in New York number nearly 2,000,000 and more than 400,000 residents of the city are without jobs. In this indictment of those who hav…

Local Lending Practice
An analysis of over 10,000 loans made by a major credit source in Keene, New Hampshire, from 1832 to 1897 is presented. The data sources are unique and include information on property ownership and wealth, occupation, involvement in businesses, age, and connections with the credit source.

Economic Independence, Indigenization, and the African Businessman
It pains me to see that three and a half years after Independence there is not a single Zambian-owned business in Cairo Road. There is not even a resident expatriate business or a foreign controlled business or any business for that matter with a Zambian manager in Cairo Road. (Kaunda, 1968: 30) Few African countries have much effective control of their economies. Foreign and alien minority interests are still dominant. Many have proclaimed polic…
