The Future Of Farming: Regional Variation In Opinions From Louisiana And The Nation, Alan Acock, Ann Dellenbarger
The Future Of Farming: Regional Variation In Opinions From Louisiana And The Nation, Alan Acock, Ann Dellenbarger
Journal of Rural Social Sciences
Findings from a 1987 telephone survey of Louisiana residents are reported. Opinions of 701 persons were gathered using a weighted probability sample across the state. Socioeconomic and demographic characteristics were used to identify regional clusters of parishes to determine differences among regions of the state. The results point to a paradox. While the clusters exhibited extreme variation in socioeconomic and demographic characteristics, there was surprising similarity in the responses regarding opinions on agricultural issues. Support for agriculture was uniformly strong across all regions, with over 80 percent of respondents agreeing that both the state and federal governments should do a …
Sociology And Biotechnology: Challenges And Opportunities, Thomas J. Hoban Iv
Sociology And Biotechnology: Challenges And Opportunities, Thomas J. Hoban Iv
Journal of Rural Social Sciences
Sociologists have traditionally been concerned with technological change. We now find renewed research interest in the social impacts and risks of biotechnology. Many public and key opinion leaders recognize that closer attention must be paid to tradeoffs, uncertainties, and negative consequences related to biotechnology. Sociologists have a number of important roles to play in ensuring that the benefits of biotechnology outweigh the potential risks. This paper examines several important issues about agricultural biotechnology that have not yet received adequate attention from sociologists. The nature of biotechnology as an innovation and as a risky technology is examined. Particular attention is aid …
Revitalizing Rural America: Focus On Rural Youth, E. Yvonne Beauford
Revitalizing Rural America: Focus On Rural Youth, E. Yvonne Beauford
Journal of Rural Social Sciences
The youth comprise a significant component of the rural population. They are rarely considered in policies, programs, or strategies for the revitalization of rural America. This paper focuses on rural youth as a potential dynamic element of change in rural America. The questions addressed are: how can we help to motivate more young people to consider careers in agriculture; and how can we improve our abilities to retain and attract talented young people to rural areas. A selected review of the relevant literature suggests that current factors influencing choice of an agriculture major differ from the past and that migration …
Determinants Of Work Status Among Heads Of Poor Families In The South, Elizabeth S. Morrissey
Determinants Of Work Status Among Heads Of Poor Families In The South, Elizabeth S. Morrissey
Journal of Rural Social Sciences
Increases in the incidence of working-age persons outside the labor force and poor female-headed families have focused national attention on that portion of the working-age poor who do not work. This study examines the role of selected demographic, family and family income variables on the work status (working versus nonworking) of metropolitan and nonmetropolitan heads of poor families in the South. The findings indicate that both age and receipt of public welfare in the previous year exert significant influences on working, regardless of residence. By residence, race is a more important predictor of work status in metropolitan than nonmetropolitan areas, …
Family Type And Familism In Contemporary Appalachia, James K. Crissman
Family Type And Familism In Contemporary Appalachia, James K. Crissman
Journal of Rural Social Sciences
Residents of Appalachia have long been considered isolated, "old-fashioned," and "traditional" when compared with the rest of the United States. Such terms as "yesterday's people" have been utilized to describe present-day Appalachians, and romanticized ideas abound as to the contemporary Appalachian family. It is still quite often pictured as extended and highly familistic. This research consisted of a study of 675 rural families throughout the state of West Virginia, which is the only state entirely within the Appalachian area. The interviewees tended to live in nuclear families. They did not display the expected degree of familism. Familism is related to …

A Gender Comparison Of Former Agricultural Students' Employment Experiences, John K. Thomas, Kathy L. Schiflett
A Gender Comparison Of Former Agricultural Students' Employment Experiences, John K. Thomas, Kathy L. Schiflett
Journal of Rural Social Sciences
Deepening shortages of highly qualified scientists, managers, and technical professionals seriously threaten American agriculture. The purpose of this study is to investigate the degree to which gender differences exist in former agricultural students' acquiring employment in the agricultural industry after leaving college. Data were obtained using a 30 percent random sample (n=1,730) of students enrolled in 1977 at two major land-grant universities in the Southwest. A mail survey conducted in late 1986 resulted in 707 respondents. Male out-numbered female respondents 3 to 1, which was approximately the same enrollment ratio in 1977. Findings of the survey indicate that 9 out …

Accounting Greats In Their Time -- A Personal Diary, Harry D. Kerrigan
Accounting Greats In Their Time -- A Personal Diary, Harry D. Kerrigan
Accounting Historians Notebook
In this writer's career paths, two centers of accounting education stand out for reminiscing: the bay area California schools at Stanford and Berkeley; and the Chicago area schools at the University of Chicago and Northwestern. Included in each reference are the accounting greats who were active as professional practitioners in the region. This small group of individuals and the places in which they labored must be said to have contributed significantly and selflessly to the status, prestige, and public esteem of accountants and accounting in their time. Like others before, during, and since their time, this group deserves to be …

Historical Contributions Of Chinese Accounting (Or R-P=E-B), Guo Daoyang
Historical Contributions Of Chinese Accounting (Or R-P=E-B), Guo Daoyang
Accounting Historians Notebook
Chinese accounting has had a long history. In ancient times it was far better developed than accounting in the Western world. The history of Chinese accounting should be known by accounting historians of the West. Both Eastern and Western accounting historians then should search for cross-cultural contacts through the centuries. It may well be that governmental accounting in the West may be improved by the West studying the much longer and much richer heritage of governmental accounting in China.

Accounting For The Operations Of A Turn-Of-The-Century School District, John S. Ribezzo
Accounting For The Operations Of A Turn-Of-The-Century School District, John S. Ribezzo
Accounting Historians Notebook
For a number of years I have been interested in the local history of the state of Rhode Island. Over that time I have collected many books, pamphlets, and other sources of information. Upon browsing one day in a used bookstore, I came upon some papers. To my surprise and delight, this material included several reports by the Trustee of School District Number Fifteen in the town of Johnston, Rhode Island. The reports, which I purchased at a reasonable price, were for the fiscal years ended April 29, 1891, 1892, and 1895. I also remembered that I had, at one …

Three Hundredth Anniversary Of Rigisches Rechenbuch By Johann Wolck, Anna Szchita, Alicija Jaruga
Three Hundredth Anniversary Of Rigisches Rechenbuch By Johann Wolck, Anna Szchita, Alicija Jaruga
Accounting Historians Notebook
Despite the handbooks on accounting and merchant arithmetics edited in Gdansk, many manuals in this field of foreign origin were used. One of them was a book by Johann Wolck entitled Rigisches Rechenbuch worinnen nach der neusten und besten Art... (the real principles of accounting as a noble art of bookkeeping) edited in George Matthias Noller's printing house in Riga in 1687.
Dr. Samuel Johnson And Accounting, Peter G. Boys
Dr. Samuel Johnson And Accounting, Peter G. Boys
Accounting Historians Notebook
Johnson's knowledge of, and interest in, accounting may well have stemmed from his high regard for arithmetic. In several letters to Hester Maria Thrale and Sophia Thrale (daughters of Henry Thrale, Brewer and M.P. for Southwark), Johnson emphasized the importance of this subject. Many of the letters were repetitive, but the following extracts from April and July 1783, when Hester and Sophia were 18 and 12 years old respectively, present the flavor of his views.
