The Shipibo-Conibo: Culture and Collections in Context
Fashioning Tradition: Maya Huipiles in the Field Museum Collections
This study analyzes 145 huipiles (Maya women's blouses) stored in the Department of Anthropology at the Field Museum. These blouses were collected during the period 1893–1995 from seven towns in the Guatemalan Highlands (Cobán, Santa María de Jesús, San Pedro Sacatepéquez, San Antonio Aguas Calientes, Quetzaltenango, Comalapa, and Chichicastenango). The huipil, usually elaborately brocaded by hand on a back strap loom, is a traditional garment th…
Intermetropolitan Variation in the Labour Force Participation Rates of White and Black Men in the United States
We decompose the variance in black and white male labour force participation rates across US metropolitan areas in 1990 into three effects: that due to variation in labour force participation within labour force categories across metropolitan areas (local labour market effects); that due to variation in the distribution of those categories across metropolitan areas (labour force structure effects); and that due to the covariation between these tw…
Changes in the Inequality of Earnings for Young Men in Metropolitan Labor Markets, 1979-1989: The Effects of Declining Wages and Sectoral Shifts within an Efficiency Wage Framework
Inequality in the earnings of young men with different educational backgrounds has grown rapidly in the United States in recent years, but the growth of inequality has varied widely across different metropolitan labor markets. We examine the increasing inequality of earnings among young men in the largest metropolitan areas of the United States for the 1979–1989 period and develop explanations for the growth of inequality that involve shifts of e…
Variations in the Labour Force Experience of Women Across Large Metropolitan Areas in the United States
ODLAND J. and ELLIS M. (1998) Variations in the labour force experience of women across large metropolitan areas in the United States, Reg. Studies 32 , 333-347. Variations in women's labour force experience rates across the largest metropolitan areas of the US are analysed by decomposing the intermetropolitan variance of experience rates for 1989 into a series of components that include intermetropolitan variation in the demography of female pop…

Interdependencies in the timing of migration and mobility events
Household organization and the interregional variation of out-migration rates
Regional out-migration rates may depend on localized conditions, but the range of possibilities for migration decision making in multi person households includes processes in which the response to variations in localized conditions depends on household size. Analyses of migration rates for households indicate that larger households exhibit more extreme responses to variations in localized conditions and that this is an important source of variati…
Sources of Change in the Process of Population Redistribution in the United States, 1955-1980
The location of population in the United States is being altered by processes of population redistribution which are themselves subject to change. A framework for the investigation of changes in a continuing process of population redistribution is introduced in this paper, and is used to test hypotheses about the sources of change in the process of the redistribution over the states of the USA. Changes in migration behavior are the major source o…
A Household Production Approach to Destination Choice
A general framework is presented which integrates destination choice and travel behavior with a more general model of the behavior of households. The general approach treats households as producers which use tangible goods as inputs to produce the more abstract commodities which are the direct objects of utility. The approach is adapted for spatial choice behavior by defining the inputs to household production as place-bound entities. Consumption…
A Conditional-Probability Approach to the Development of Spatial Pattern
A stochastic model for the development of spatial patterns is introduced and used to investigate the process of housing deterioration in an American city. Space is treated as a sequence of discrete locations and a spatial-lag structure is incorporated in the model by defining multivalued random variables whose values indicate conditions at a central location and at a series of spatial lags. The possible combinations of these values define the sta…

Prior Information in Spatial Analysis
Formal statistical procedures which incorporate prior, or nonsample, information can be used to enlarge the theoretical and empirical content of analytical models, and can be widely applied to adapt general statistical procedures for special investigative situations which arise in the analysis of spatial data. A class of methods which operate by modifying the parameter space of general statistical models in accordance with prior information is pr…
The Conditions for Multi-Center Cities
A set of formal conditions for multi-center versus single-center urban forms are derived in this paper, from a mathematical programming model of the spatial arrangement of a city. These conditions indicate that singlecenter arrangements prevail when the marginal costs associated with production, transportation, and residential crowding are small compared to the population and area of the city. The formal conditions are compatible with a class of …
The Spatial Arrangement of Urban Activities: A Simultaneous Location Model
The spatial patterns of urban activities are treated as the outcome of a balance between economic conditions that reward spatial concentration of employment activity on the one hand but favor spatial dispersion of residences on the other. The balance between these two sets of conditions is mediated by the cost of commuting. These three elements are formalized in terms of a mathematical-programming model that determines simultaneously the location…
Testing Hypotheses of Polarized Growth within a Central Place Hierarchy
A general method for testing hypotheses about spatial polarization with respect to an exogenously determined growth pole already has been published [3] and later extended to encompass a multiplicity of poles of different orders [4]. In this paper the method is extended to allow for the testing of hierarchical polarized growth. The latter is here defined as the dynamic pattern in a central place setting wherein the level of growth at any point in …
The Formalization and Testing of Concepts of Growth Poles in a Spatial Context
This paper commences with a discussion of the formal characteristics that economic growth in a spatial setting must possess in order to be legitimately regarded as polarized growth. The conditions both for the case of a single growth pole and for the case of several growth poles are considered. A method is then outlined for determining whether or not spatially polarized growth does occur in a particular context, the method being illustrated by us…

origin and destination [13, pp. 49-50]. In general, the net effect of these properties may be viewed in terms of the functional distance between any two places (or nodes). If each node's (n) properties are mapped in an n-dimensional space, it is possible to compute a measure of distance separating any two nodes, termed functional distance, such that it reflects the net effect of nodal properties upon their propensity to interact [6]. In this cont…
