The Anti-Greek Riot Of 1909: South Omaha, John G. Bitzes Aug 1964

The Anti-Greek Riot Of 1909: South Omaha, John G. Bitzes

Student Work

The anti-Greek riot of 1909, in South Omaha, Nebraska, was a violent, regrettable, but significant episode in American history. Its importance rests in the fact that it took place at a time when the American people were in the process of making a very important decision concerning immigration. By 1908, the problem of the oriental immigrant entering and living on the west coast of the United States had been solved largely by adopting a policy of exclusion. There still remained, however, the great wave of the "new immigration" from southern and eastern Europe. The American native, largely of northwestern European …

The Sociometric Status Of The Creative Child In Three Elementary School Classrooms, Anna Lee Kiefer Jun 1963

The Sociometric Status Of The Creative Child In Three Elementary School Classrooms, Anna Lee Kiefer

Individual, Family, and Community Education ETDs

It was the purpose of this study to explore the social structure of fifth-and sixth-grade classes in order to determine the social status of previously identified creative students in classrooms where the teachers have been rated as being high or low on the Minnesota Test of Creativity.

Creative children are identified by their ability to think divergently, to solve problems, in rather unconventional and novel ways, and by their frustrations when forced to solve problems in specified, conditional ways. These children may deviate in their behavior so much that their social status among their peers and their acceptability with their …

A Study Of Inter-Department Mobility Of Workers In A Meat Packing Plant: Volitional Versus Non-Volitional, John A. Ballweg Jun 1962

A Study Of Inter-Department Mobility Of Workers In A Meat Packing Plant: Volitional Versus Non-Volitional, John A. Ballweg

Student Work

In general, this study investigates inter-department mobility with respect to a representative group of blue collar workers in a mean packing plant. More specifically, the distinction is being made between what might be called volitional and non-volitional mobility. An effort will be made to ascertain to what degree volitional mobility exists in the plant. In addition, various correlates of respondents will be explored and an attempt will be made to determine the relationship which prevails between the correlates and the source of inter-plant mobility.

Cultural And Social Problems Of An Indian Pueblo, Thomas P. Lief Mar 1961

Cultural And Social Problems Of An Indian Pueblo, Thomas P. Lief

Sociology ETDs

This study describes the impact of social change upon the social structure of an Indian pueblo community in New Mexico. It is an investigation of the variant social forces and their conflicting impingements. Given a certain culture heritage, a particular historical background and a specific physical and social setting, what are the results of change upon the social system and upon the individual? To fit this inquiry into the empirical realm of facts, the community of San Juan pueblo was chosen, not so much because of its unique cultural configuration, as for the fact that it offered an opportune area …

River Town, A Descriptive Survey Of A Unique Community, Robert F. Simpson Jun 1960

River Town, A Descriptive Survey Of A Unique Community, Robert F. Simpson

Student Work

Since the Lynds first presented the study of Middle-town to the social science world in 1937, there has been an increasing interest in community studies. Many social scientists have presented their studies for the interested reader. The community study titles are familiar ones for the majority of the social science students. Among them are such studies as: Hollingshead's Elmstown's Youth, Warner's Yankee City Series, Redfield's The Little Community, and Lantz and McCrary's People of Coaltown. Each study approaches the community from a different point of view, but each has one thing in common with all other: the desire to present …

A Survey Of The Attention Given To Population Problems By Physical And Social Science Societies, Morton K. Ohlson

Economics ETDs

It is the purpose of this thesis to examine the publications of leading physical and social science societies 1946 through 1956 with a view to finding out the degree of importance that they attach to the world's present rate of population growth. As a result of this examination of scientific literature it is the thesis of this paper that the overwhelming majority of social and physical scientists believe that the present rate of growth of the world's population is one of the most contemporary problems. The attention given has been uneven among the scientific societies. Some have devoted an adequate …

3. Darwinism And The Rise Of Social Science, Robert L. Bloom, Basil L. Crapster, Harold L. Dunkelberger, Charles H. Glatfelter, Richard T. Mara, Norman E. Richardson, W. Richard Schubart

Section XV: Biology and the Rise of the Social Sciences

The two areas of the social sciences which were more stimulated by Darwin's research were anthropology and sociology. The Frenchman, Auguste Comte (1798-1857), generally regarded as the father of sociology and the originator of that term, laid the groundwork for the immediate application of the law of evolution to the study of society. Comte's conception of sociology is derived from his philosophy of history. Sharing the Enlightenment belief in progress, Comte saw history evolving through three stages. The first was the theological stage, in which men supplied supernatural explanations for the natural and social phenomena. This was followed bu what …
