The Patron-dependant Relationship in Brazil: A Preliminary Examination
The Patron-Dependant Relationship in Brazil: A Preliminart ExaminationIn considering problems of economic development in the underdeveloped countries, too little attention has been paid to the possibility of a social ethos inimical to changes in work habits. It is suggested that one such obstacle visible throughout Brazilian life is that of the patron-dependant relationship, which substitutes for self-reliance a dependence on the assistance of th…
Fertility, social mobility and urban migration in Brazil
In the course of a sample survey of the adult population of eight cities in southcentral Brazil conducted in 1959 and early 1960, material was obtained respecting total family size after ten or more years of marriage. This was analysed in order to determine what variations in mean family size could be observed in relation to class status and social mobility. The results generally corroborate those of J. Berent for England and Wales–that is, that …

Some Social Consequences of Missionary Activity among South African Bantu
The article which follows is the last half of a paper published in Africa. In the first half of the article the author traces the beginnings of missionary work among the Bantu in the early nineteenth century, stressing its initial friendly reception, the development of its patterns of instituting culture change, and its gradual effect on African cultures. In the following section, the author goes on to trace later developments, and the disturbing…
Race differences in fertility: A note on their estimation in Brazil
A recently published estimate of differential “racial” fertility in Brazil concludes that fertility is significantly higher among the white than among the black population. However, the problems of defining racial categories in Brazil are great, if not insuperable, and it may be shown that the “racial” distribution of the population varied widely between the census of 1940 and that of 1950, owing to changes in definition. The calculation of ferti…
Structural and exchange mobility in the assimilation of immigrants to Brazil
Data obtained from a study of social mobility in the Brazilian city of Sao Paulo are used to show how far there exist differences in mobility rates as between immigrant and Brazilian-born sections of the adult population. The Index of Association, based upon a comparison of filial with parental status, while revealing a significant difference in mobility rates as between those of purely Brazilian and those of mixed origin, seems, however, to conc…
The Social Grading of Occupations in Brazil
t S A PRELIMINARY PHASE of a studyl of social mobility and educa> tion among the population of the Brazilian city of Sao Paulo £ X (population 2@25 million) an inquiry is being made into the social grading of occupations, on lines already made familiar by similar inquiries camed out in Britain, New Zealand, Australia and elsewhere. The Brazilian results are of interest in that they emerge from a history and a cultural tradition that are widely di…
Some evidence related to matrimonial selection and immigrant assimilation in Brazil
Data obtained from a random sample show that in São Paulo intermarriage between Brazilians and foreigners gradually increased from the onset of heavy foreign immigrant in the 1870's up to the 1920's. Intermarriage occurs most frequently between Brazilians and those of Mediterranean origin, least so with Japanese. It is concluded that common cultural characteristics facilitate intermarriage and that it is doubtful whether, as Savorgnan suggests, I…
Some Social Consequences of Nineteenth Century Missionary Activity among the South African Bantu
Opening ParagraphThe missionary in South Africa found himself, from the earliest years of the 19th century, in an equivocal position, and the role he actually played was the result of the varied and sometimes conflicting hopes and expectations entertained by the Bantu people, by the white settlers and, not least, by the missionary himself. Though he was at this period usually racially tolerant, the missionary was nevertheless out of sympathy with…
