La captación estadística de los asalariados agropecuarios : Reflexiones en torno a sus problemas mediante un ejercicio de comparación entre censos de población y agropecuarios (Argentina, 2001/2002)

Históricamente la captación estadística del empleo agropecuario (y más específicamente del empleo asalariado agropecuario) ha presentado una serie de problemas y limitaciones para las fuentes de datos tradicionales. Los elevados niveles de transitoriedad, estacionalidad, no registro e informalidad han tenido como consecuencia una serie de dificultades en su cuantificación por medio de las fuentes censales y muestrales tradicionales. Los procesos más recientes que atraviesan a esta fracción social (urbanización, acortamiento de ciclos productivos y ocupacionales, disminución de requerimientos de fuerza de trabajo por la mecanización de ciertas cosechas, etc.) parecen haber incrementado dichas dificultades. Trabajos previos realizados demuestran que los censos de población y agropecuarios arrojan diferentes resultados en la cuantificación de los asalariados del sector. Se presenta en este documento un análisis comparado de los resultados obtenidos en Argentina, por el Censo Nacional de Población y Vivienda de 2001 y el Censo Nacional Agropecuario de 2002. El objetivo buscado es realizar una aproximación a las diferentes cifras de asalariados en el agro que arrojan ambos relevamientos en todos los departamentos del país. A su vez, se intentará vincular dichas diferencias con los distintos territorios y distintas estructuras sociales y agrarias, buscando descubrir si permiten aportar a la explicación de aquellos resultados divergentes. Para ello se confeccionó una base de datos del total del país, desagregada a nivel provincial y departamental (máximo nivel de desagregación permitida por las fuentes publicadas) de la cantidad total de asalariados agropecuarios y diversos indicadores de la estructura social y agraria (cantidad de explotaciones pobres, niveles de urbanización, distribución de la tierra, etc.).

Radiolarian assemblages of the late Neogene North Pacific

Radiolarian census and abundance data were collected from three deep-sea cores drilled by the Ocean Drilling Program Sites 884, 887 and 1151 to investigate patterns of ecologic changes in space and time during the last 16 million years for the mid-latitude to subarctic North Pacific. High concentrations of radiolarians occurred between 9.0 and 2.7 Ma. Radiolarian species richness was highest in the early middle Miocene at each site and gradually decreased up to about 7 Ma, coinciding with a well-established global cooling trend. A degree of overlap index calculated for radiolarian assemblages revealed 11 faunal change events, of which 8 corresponded to global cooling events and expansions of polar ice sheets. Three of the faunal change events were observed within the peak of radiolarian accumulation rate and were ascribed to changes in primary productivity in the North Pacific rather than global climatic changes. Our assemblage analyses revealed that north-south differentiation in radiolarian assemblages in the northwestern Pacific has existed since 16 Ma and became more distinct via major steps at 6.8 Ma and 2.7 Ma, coinciding with major glaciation events, and that east-west faunal contrasts in the subarctic region became obvious beginning at 11.7 Ma and changed to a different mode around 6.8 Ma. The observed east-west faunal differences possibly reflect east to west climate differences that were characterized by cooler temperatures in the east than the west during the late Miocene (11.7-6.8 Ma) and then by the opposite temperature trend (6.8 Ma-Recent). A severe glaciation at 2.7 Ma played a large role, particularly in temporal changes in radiolarian accumulation rate and assemblage composition.

Carolyn Banner

Carolyn had a Bachelor of Science in Education degree from Langston University and a Master of Science degree in Early Childhood Development from the University of Minnesota. In 1959 Carolyn came to Lincoln as acting principal of the laboratory Elementary School and Supervisor of Elementary Student Teaching. She nurtured and taught hundreds of Lincoln’s students to be the finest, most qualified teachers in the country. Once retired she was able to enjoy the many awards that she received through out her years. The awards she received were citations, and honors: AAUW Woman of Achievement Award, and the MUATE Outstanding Teacher Educator Award. She was elected the first Black President of AAUW in 1965. She was appointed to the Mayor’s Census and Redistricting Committee in 1981. On June 21st, 1985 Mayor George Hartsfield declared that day as “Carolyn Banner Day” in Jefferson City. Carolyn Banner retired from Lincoln University in July 1985.

Los límites entre el turismo y la migración residencial: una tipología

En los procesos de movilidad internacional de jubilados desde el norte de Europa hasta las costas mediterráneas, se reconocen nuevos estilos de vida relacionados con fenómenos de naturaleza en ocasiones turística y a veces migratoria. Las sociedades que acogen a esta población requieren la definición de criterios para categorizar a estas personas como turistas o inmigrantes, pues la financiación y la gestión de sus recursos depende de ello. En este trabajo, se construye una tipología creada a partir de una encuesta realizada a 872 ciudadanos europeos en la provincia de Alicante. El empadronamiento y la forma de tenencia de la vivienda ocupada se revelan como las variables explicativas de la relación existente entre el turismo de larga estancia y la migración residencial.
