Korea on the edge
The East Asian countries of China, Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan share many cultural similarities and connections. As a group, they have the lowest birth rate in the world. Among them, South Korea (henceforth, Korea) has the lowest birth rate, equivalent to less than one child per woman. If this continues, it will bring severe population decline and aging, approximately halving the population size by the end of the century and creating an aged s…

Anne Marie Wolf. Juan de Segovia and the Fight for Peace
Anne Marie Wolf’s analysis of the life and thoughts of fifteenth-century Castilian conciliarist and Church reformer Juan de Segovia is an accessible and engaging intellectual history of a figure that historians have traditionally found difficult to classify. Juan de Segovia and the Fight for Peace: Christians and Muslims in the Fifteenth Century focuses on situating Segovia’s controversial ideas concerning Christianity’s relationship with Islam f…
Jonathan Gorry. Cold War Christians and the Spectre of Nuclear Deterrence, 1945–1959
Through much of the Cold War, the threat to use nuclear weapons was implicit, and sometimes explicit. And yet those weapons have never been fired in anger since Nagasaki. A so-called nuclear taboo took hold, a habit of nuclear non-use that has, so far, become entrenched and strengthened into a self-imposed prohibition and stigmatization of the use of nuclear weapons. But that was by no means preordained. During much of the period covered by this …

The Death of the West
Much has been written about the 'Death of the West', a demise threatened by the low level of reproduction in Western countries. That fate is contrasted unfavourably with the rapid growth of the populations and economies of less developed countries, and the prospect of the numerical and political marginalization of the formerly dominant developed world. We believe that trends in European fertility have been misunderstood and that, with effort and …

Creating Christian Granada
Creating Christian Granada provides a richly detailed examination of a critical and transitional episode in Spain's march to global empire. The city of Granada—Islam's final bastion on the Iberian peninsula—surrendered to the control of Spain's "Catholic Monarchs" Isabella and Ferdinand on January 2, 1492. Over the following century, Spanish state and Church officials, along with tens of thousands of Christian immigrant settlers, transformed the …

A One-Year Introductory Robotics Curriculum for Computer Science Upperclassmen
This paper describes a one-year introductory robotics course sequence focusing on computational aspects of robotics for third- and fourth-year students. The key challenges this curriculum addresses are scalability, i.e., how to teach a robotics class with a limited amount of hardware to a large audience,student assessment, i.e., how to assess the students' success on robotic design and programming assignments, and depth versus breadth, i.e., how …
New Measures of Population Reproduction for an Era of High Migration
Migration has become a key factor in the growth and replacement of populations. But demographic tools for its analysis remain simple. This paper is our response to those problems. We propose a set of simple, single‐number indicators, which summarise the aggregate effect of the major contributing factors to the reproduction of populations. Our estimates imply that the persistence of rates observed since 2004 would lead to robust population growth …
Before the Comuneros
Following its Christian conquest in 1487, Málaga became the Crown of Castile's busiest Mediterranean seaport. The influence of Genoese merchants in Málaga's commercial and political life led historian López de Coca to suggest that the city's 1516 rebellion against the Cisneros regency reflected the influence of Genoese ideas. Using previously unexamined evidence, I conclude that while Genoese influence was important, the Málaga rebellion reflecte…
Of Corsairs, Converts and Renegades
Historians have long debated whether or not the cultures of the Mediterranean constitute a singular unit of geo-historical analysis. The Alborán Sea—the Mediterranean’s far western corner that narrowly separates the Iberian Peninsula from Africa’s northwestern shore—has long been an important “frontier” zone in which arguments for and against Mediterranean unity are put to the test. This essay contends that endemic practices of corsair activity a…

Projections of the Ethnic Minority Populations of the United Kingdom 2006-2056
The ethnic minority populations in the UK are growing substantially through immigration, a youthful age structure, and in some cases relatively high fertility. Their diverse demographic and socioeconomic characteristics have attracted considerable academic and policy attention, especially insofar as those distinctive characteristics have persisted in the generations born in the UK. No official projections of the UK ethnic populations have been pu…
Divergent Patterns in the Ethnic Transformation of Societies
The uneven timing of the demographic transition in different countries of the world will lead to divergence between countries in ethnic and religious homogeneity. Developed-country populations that began their fertility transitions relatively early are becoming increasingly diverse with respect to the ethnic origin and religion of their inhabitants, primarily as a result of high recent levels of immigration. Many demographic patterns of the devel…

Recent Studies in Religion and Renaissance Drama
Although early works of new historicism and cultural materialism stressed the significance of early modern religion as a context for Renaissance drama, criticism in the 1990s was largely secular in focus. However, more recent years have seen the intensive development of a school of criticism which uses the methodology of historical materialism, but analyses the religious discourses and institutional structures of early modern England. This articl…
The Missiles of November, December, January, February
This article examines how the Kennedy administration assessed the risk posed by Soviet short-range missiles in Cuba and the associated combat troops, particularly in the months after the peak of the Cuban missile crisis. The issue had a strong domestic political subtext that played out for months. Missiles in Cuba had been a topic of discussion well before the dramatic events of October 1962, and the dispute about them dragged on well past the fa…
An Increase in the Sex Ratio of Births to India-born Mothers in England and Wales
Male preference in many Asian cultures results in discriminatory practices against females, including neglect and infanticide. This preference, together with the availability of prenatal sex determination and sex-selective abortion, has led to an increase in sex ratios at birth in China, India, and South Korea. The resulting expected gender imbalances raise ethical, demographic, and social concerns. We analyzed birth statistics to see whether sim…

The Economic Effects of Immigration into the United Kingdom
This article is concerned with the economic effects of immigration. The emphasis is on Britain, but extensive material is also provided on other countries. Since 1997 a new British immigration policy has displaced previous policy aims, which were focused on minimizing settlement. Large-scale immigration is now seen as essential for Britain's economic well-being, and measures have been introduced to increase inflows. The benefits claimed include f…

Europe's Demographic Future
Europe shares, to a varying degree in different countries, common demo-graphic processes with the rest of the post-transitional world. These are the familiar characteristics of developed societies: fewer babies, longer lives, older populations, diverse households, more immigrants. These trends differ in important ways from those across the Atlantic. In Europe fertility is lower than in the United States despite more pervasive welfare programs in …

Eisenhower and the Berlin Problem, 1953–1954
Soon after taking office, the Eisenhower administration adopted two key decisions on Berlin and the German question that were to have far-reaching consequences in the 1950s and 1960s. First, Eisenhower reaffirmed the U.S. security commitment to West Berlin, a commitment that entailed at least some risk of general war. Second, the administration prepared to use West Berlin in a broader political strategy aimed at weakening and eventually undermini…

Temporal Stability and Internal Reliability of Measures of Children's Social Skill
According to recent reviews of the literature, interest in assessment of social skills of children has been growing (Michelson & Wood, 1980; Michelson, Foster, & Ritchey, in press). However, requisite psychometric properties of commonly used measures have rarely been reported. To remedy this relative vacuum 90 elementary school children (M = 13 yr.) were given three measures and retested 2 wk. later. The Children's Assertive Behavior Scale (Miche…
The demography of ethnic minorities
Cultural—‘ethnic’—differences within national populations have recently become the focus of considerable academic and political debate. This paper considers their demographic significance and reviews some facts and theories on the demography of minorities. It cannot present a comprehensive theory of the demography of ethnic minorities. Such a theory must be part of a more general analysis of cultural effects on demographic variables—which so far …
