Open AccessRuth Hill UseemARTICLEThe Annals of the American…1966Cited by: 7
In India, overseas American men under govern ment, business, missionary, and cultural-exchange sponsorship typically are married. Although their wives perform many of the same functions abroad as at home, the cultural, social, and physical contexts are quite divergent. In addition, their "de pendency" and "representational" statuses mean that family life and work life of husbands are closely intertwined. There are three areas which are unusually …

Men in the Middle of the Third Culture: The Roles of American and Non-Western People in Cross-Cultural Administration
John Useem, Ruth Hill Useem et al.ARTICLEHuman Organization1963Cited by: 21
Cross-cultural research among the various social sciences can be grouped into three basic types: the comparative study of phenomena in a series of different societies; the exploration of a society, or some aspect of it, by a foreign scientist; and the study of patterns generic to the intersections of societies. Each type involves a distinctive set of variables and methodological problems and all three are in need of further development of appropr…

The Function of Neighboring for the Middle-Class Male
Ruth Hill Useem, Ruth Useem et al.ARTICLEHuman Organization1960Cited by: 1
The popular literature on man in a modern urban civilization presents the image of persons divested of enduring social ties, caught between conflicting pressures, and vulnerable to a depersonalized social world. This imagery of man accommodating to a new kind of human environment needs careful appraisal before it can be assumed that structural tensions have a one-to-one relationship with tensions experienced by individuals or that the passing of …

The majority are currently employed in colleges and universities, the government, business and industry; a few are unemployed; and the rest are engaged full time in political affairs, as editors of newspapers, and in the social services.

Minority-Group Pattern in Prairie Society
John Useem, Ruth Hill UseemARTICLEAmerican Journal of Sociology1945Cited by: 1
A study of first- and second-generation Norwegians in a prairie tow and a farming community shows that four classes may be conceived of as takin their places along a continuum of acculturation. Most striking is the fact that, while the country people "live" Norwegian-speaking the language, telling the folk tales-twice as many townsmen join Norwegian societies and symbolically express their cultural identification. Yet, never having been made to f…
Wartime Employment and Cultural Adjustments of the Rosebud Sioux
John Useem, Gordon Macgregor et al.ARTICLEHuman Organization1943
In 1942, the Dakota Sioux made an unprecedented exodus to off-reservation work due to cessation of reservation relief and the attraction of high wages in military construction work and agricultural labor. The Indians have not been slow to share in the quickening of economic activity that has come to the Great Plains after a decade of drought, depression and poverty, and to contribute their services in war production. To understand the adjustments…
