Reinventing Rural Sociology: Processes and Substance1
Major shifts in the terms of the social contract between society and land grant universities have implications for the research, teaching, and extension agenda of rural sociology. By tracing the legislative, academic, and social context of these changes, one can understand the evolving process, the forces of change, and the necessity for new organizational strategies to respond to society's needs. Better networking with constituencies and use of …
Sociology in Agricultural Administration
Very late one night, as an assistant professor, I was working on a research paper with a graduate student and the student asked, Do you intend to keep working these hours after you get tenure? I don't recall my answer, and I doubt it was very pithy; but I'm sure I intended to ease off the late night schedules of graduate student and junior faculty member. Unfortunately, it never happened. I became a university research administrator! The combinat…
The Organization and Funding of Social Science in the NSF
The legitimation of federal funding of social, economic, and behavioral science research faced a major challenge with the budget reductions of the Reagan Administration in 1981-1982. This article reviews the history of support and opposition to the social sciences in NSF and the collective response of the social science research community to the budget cutbacks. The consequences for research directions as a result of retrenchment and for the futu…

Residential preferences in a model of migration intentions
Residential preferences, community satisfaction, and the intention to move
This paper explores the role of size of place residential preference in the evolution of the intention to move out of the present community using data from the March 1974 NORC Amalgam Survey. People who prefer to live in a community having different size or location characteristics than their present residence are five times more likely to intend to move than those who have attained their preferred type of residence. Within these two groups, howe…
Residential preferences and population distribution
Public opinion research has revealed decided preferences for living in rural areas and small towns, and proponents of population deconcentration have interpreted this as support for their policies. This study, based on a national sample, yielded similar results, but when we introduced the additional possibility of a preference for proximity to a larger city, then the rural areas preferred were found, for most respondents, to be those within the c…

Another Look at Residential Turnover in Urban Neighborhoods: A Note on "Racial Change in a Stable Community" by Harvey Molotch
Evidence has indicated that property turnovers in a racially changing area are a function of the structural conditions of the housing and demographic characteristics fo the white residents in a Chicago community. Analysis of the Chicago case study raises questions about the validity of the evidence. A test of the hypothesis in Cleveland subareas revealed that, in some racially changing areas, the high turnover can be explained by the housing and …
