Population and poverty in dependent states: Latin America considered.

"Malthusians maintain that rapid population growth aggravates poverty, while Marxists contend that social formations determine its nature and extent. Each perspective is incomplete, however, since it ignores the insights of the other. Latin American states, characterized by dependent capitalism formations and dominated by ruling elites, are generally incapable of solving the problems of population and poverty. Since population growth under dependent capitalism weakens labor's bargaining position against capital, reduced population growth is emphasized as a labor empowerment strategy the poor can implement on their own to improve their socioeconomic conditions."

Three current issues in ethnic and racial studies.

Prevailing orthodoxies in British studies of ethnic and racial relations have been challenged, most recently by perspectives developed within cultural studies. The issues that divide the contending parties have still to be clarified. Three of them appear to be: (i) problem definition; (ii) problem selection; and (iii) conceptual obsolescence.

Some experiences with the F scale in Yugoslavia.

Two studies in which the original F scale (Adorno, Frenkel-Brunswik, Levinson & Sanford, 1950) has been used in Yugoslavia are reported. The first one considers inter-item correlations whereas the second rates total score to several personality variables. It has been found that these studies provide evidence for the existence of several hard-to-interpret first-order factors which do lead to one higher-order factor. The F scale measures anxiety, independence (dominance) and also unexpected social adjustment second-order personality factors. Both political and cultural influences could be considered as explanations for these results but the latter seem to be more pronounced. That being the case, revisions of the scale have been suggested.
