American Symbolism in Intercultural Communication: An Animosity/Ethnocentrism Perspective on Intergroup Relations and Consumer Attitudes
What leads to acceptance versus rejection of messages that represent one's own culture/in-group, or a foreign culture/out-group? We investigate how symbols in mass communication might be used to overcome biases toward in-group and out-group messages. We experimentally study these effects across countries representing varying levels of consumer ethnocentrism (which relates to attitudes about one's own country, or in-group) and country-specific ani…

The changing population at labor force ages along the U.S‐Mexico Border
NAFTA has replaced IRCA (Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 as amended) as the focal point in U.S.-Mexico relations, yet, underlying both are common themes related to population and economics. Disparities in economic opportunities and disparities in population dynamics are major defining elements of life along the U.S.-Mexico border. The decennial censuses in both countries provide an opportunity each decade to examine the evolving situat…

Economic Segmentation and Worker Earnings in a U.S.-Mexico Border Enclave
This study examines the effects of economic segmentation on worker earnings in El Paso, Texas, a city that is a major enclave on the U.S.-Mexico border. The investigation relies on the dual economy model, which maintains that the U.S. economy is divided into a monopoly and a competitive sector. This distinction is thought to be related to worker remuneration, with poorly paying jobs found primarily in the competitive sector. It is hypothesized th…

Metropolitan to Nonmetropolitan Migration: A Decision-Making Perspective
The decision-making process governing metropolitan to nonmetropolitan migration in the United States is examined. In particular the authors attempt to separate the decision to move from the selection of a destination in their analysis. The importance of previous ties to specific locations as a factor influencing destination selection is noted. Linkages of reasons for moving are used to examine geographic patterns of turnaround migration to midwes…
Motivations for the inmigration component of population turnaround in nonmetropolitan areas
Data from a 1977 survey of metropolitan and nonmetropolitan origin households migrating to 75 high net inmigration counties of the Midwest are examined to consider the motivational basis for the inmigration component of post-1970 non metropolitan migration trends. Findings suggest that the major stated motivations for leaving places of origin, especially among those from metropolitan areas, are “quality of life” considerations. About a fourth of …
Technology and Cultural Convergence: A Limited Empirical Test
Past research on individual modernity has concentrated on identification of the antecedents of more modern patterns of thinking, valuing, and behaving. The present study attempts to take a next step in this research tradition, to determine whether value modernization also implies cross-cultural value convergence. Data were obtained from samples at four levels of industry in each of three countries (Ghana, India, and Brazil) on 22 questions design…

Revision and Intention in Mark Twain's A Connecticut Yankee
TN I889, Mark Twain got free advertising for his forthcoming ]keen and powerful satire of English Nobility and Royalty by free-swinging attacks on England and all things un-American. On December io, for example, in an interview in New York Times, he derided English publishers who refused print his utter contempt for their pitiful Lords and Dukes and then-with notable inconsistency-went on deplore dissemination of foreign literature in America. Am…
