What the Social Sciences Can Tell policy-Makers in Yemen
Instead of duplicating the media coverage of recent serious challenges to Yemen’s national leadership in different parts of the country, this article draws on the best social science studies to help explain some of the forces behind Yemen’s chronic instability, as well as to suggest what policies, programs, and management approaches might be most successful in moving the country and its growing population toward a more promising future. A state-o…
Antebellum Farm-Settlement Patterns: A Three-Level Approach to Assessing the Effects of Soils
Different soil classes offered varying economic results for farmers. The use of multiple data sets to analyze the connection between soils, economic benefits, and settlement patterns at three geographical levels-the five states of the Old Northwest, the sixty-eight counties in Michigan's Lower Peninsula, and the individual farms in one mid-Michigan county-tends to confirm that soils were a significant motivating factor in the locational decisions…
Race and Housing: A Review and Comments on the Content and Effects of Federal Policy
Unlike school integration measures, housing and community development policies attack the causes rather than simply the symptoms of racial segregation in urban communities. Federal policies are examined with regard to two goals: protection of the individual's right to a decent home and a suitable living environment, and the social goal of achieving stable interracial residential environments. Although both supply and demand housing strategies hav…
Similarities and Differences in Migration Flows to Urban Settlements in Five Southeast Asian Countries
Sufficient empirical research has accumulated in a number of regions of the less developed world to prepare state-of-the-art reviews of migration studies (Morse, 1965, 1971a, 1971b) as well as in-depth investigations of migration-related issues (Kuper, 1965). Despite its size and world importance, very little such research has been conducted in Southeast Asia. This is evident in both the articles and special bibliographic chapter published in a r…
Sociological Research on the Economic Myths of Housing
Economic perspectives dominate the formulation of housing policies and programs. Although sociologists have little to offer with regard to some economic justifications for government housing policy, there are many questionable assumptions about means-end relationships involving behavioral patterns that sociologists are especially equipped to study. Part I explores questionable economic assumptions pertaining to the institutional structure of cred…

Segmentation of Radicalism-The Case of the Protestant Campus Minister
Every Organization has its "radicals"-persons who may disrupt internal affairs, but who may also anticipate needed changes as the organization's environment changes. Viable organiztions, therefore, have structures for both containing and using radicalism, typically through segmentation. If radicalism is to be "used" as well as contained, there must be procedures whereby it can influence the organization. The Protestan campus ministry, as a segmen…
