La aljama de los judíos de Huesca a finales del siglo XV: una nómina de casatenientes de la judería de 1475

Edition and analysis of a document containing a nominal list of Jews of Huesca in 1475, one of the most important Jewish communities in the kingdom of Aragon in the period previous to the expulsion of 1492. This documentary evidence allows us to shed light on certain conspicuous members of the aljama , as well as on its demography.

Reading The 1835 Parish Censuses from Bahia: Citizenship, Kinship, Slavery, and Household in Early Nineteenth-Century Brazil

Since the late 1960s, a growing number of studies have drawn on local manuscript censuses, also known as household or nominal lists, to reshape the historiography of late colonial and early nineteenth-century Brazil. While many of those studies focus on family or household composition, manuscript censuses have also been used to explore topics ranging from proto-industrialization and demographic trends to patterns of slaveholding and the status of women. In working with this documentation, scholars have generally restricted themselves to quantitative analyses; they have seldom devoted much explicit attention to the format of censuses and to the categories found in them. As a result, the ideological assumptions and political concerns that census-takers in late colonial and early nineteenthcentury Brazil brought to bear in enumerating, classifying, and ordering the population have remained largely unexplored topics. To detect those assumptions and concerns, we need to go beyond quantification and to read Brazilian manuscript censuses for the qualitative information they contain. At the very least, reading censuses qualitatively holds out the possibility of raising questions that complement and enhance the findings from the more familiar quantitative studies.

Technological innovations, organizational change and workplace accident prevention

In a case study involving seven industrial firms, the objective of the study was to generate new postulates about the relationship between the way technological change is managed, the organizational transformations leading to more workers’ participation, the introduction of a health and safety program, and the occurrence of occupational accidents and illnesses. Data were obtained from interviews with managers, workers and union representatives and analysis of statistics and a detailed nominal list of work injuries. The changes contribute to improving the working conditions, but at the same time, the intensity of work and the increasing of work load mitigate the results which appeared as a series of ambiguities with which workers must deal.

Note sur la mobilité de la vieillesse et les déplacements de la population en pays pré-pyrénéen pendant la Révolution française

The nominative lists of La Roche-Guyon, for the year 1799 (an VII), have underlined the mobility of old people. The conclusion, from the nominatives lists of 1795 (an III), for the Baronnies, near Lannemezan, are very différents. But these lists give also the possibility to study the mobility of the mariage and of the young people.

Belgium: Corporate Reputation in the Eye of the Beholder

This article reviews the preparatory conceptual and empirical work that preceeded the compilation of the nomination list of most visible reputed companies in view of the Euro-RQ assessment in Belgium. Besides a brief exploration of the Belgian business landscape, this contribution provides a summary of the findings deriving from the corporate reputation focus group research conducted in Belgium last year, as well some of the key findings of an additional exploratory assessment conducted in February 2000 regarding the implementation of the corporate reputation concept by the public at large. Further, these outcomes are compared with the views of some 1,000 CEOs on corporate reputation. On the basis of these findings, a series of remarks are formulated as a base for further in-depth discussion and empirical analysis.

Flemish immigration in wallonia and in france:: Patronyms as Data

Flemish emigration during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries is too complex to be dealt with definitively in a single article. Our main objective is to provide an overview of the migration towards France and Wallonia by looking at its chronology, and the spatial distribution of emigrants and their descendants. In this effort, patronym distribution is very helpful. As markers of migratory movements, patronyms from a collection of nominative lists give us a handle on migration flows as no other evidence can. Comparing France and Wallonia, the two destination areas, it is possible to see similarities between types of migrants: workers in heavy industry, workers in the agricultural sector, and workers engaged in domestic services. In addition, three phases may be identified in the arrival of a Flemish population in France and Wallonia: an emigration phase, an integration phase, and a redistribution phase. The last phase is also part of the urbanization process and is linked with upward social mobility.

Presenting the Self: Record Linkage and Referring to Ordinary Historical Persons

The correspondence between a nominal entry and an historical person remains a central problematic in the practice of nominal record linkage. Failed linkage is generally assumed to be due to source defects either in the construction or the reproduction of the nominal list. The purpose of this paper is explain that variations in nominal data for ordinary persons are not necessarily a function of error, but rather a reflection of conscious decisions by individuals to filter their own data in ways which suit their own concerns. Drawing on the ideas of Erving Goffman, an attempted explanation is made as to how and why individuals present their self in different ways in different circumstances, so creating uncertainty in the linkage process.

Una <em>kěṯûbbâ</em> de Jaca

Hace unos años David Romano publicaba una lista nominal de 115 contribuyentes judíos de Jaca en 1377. El autor edita ahora una kěṯûbbâ de Jaca de 1429, que, en cierto modo, le sirve de complemento. Separados ambos documentos por el crucial año 1391, se observa, sin embargo, que en la ciudad aragonesa se mantuvo en el siglo XV el mismo núcleo de familias del siglo XIV.

Les listes nominatives de la Bohême, source de données pour l'histoire sociale et la démographie historique

The article gives an analysis of two kinds of sources for population research in Bohemia between 1585 and 1700 : of several ecclesiastical lists of inhabitants and of several registers of subjects. The article deals with the possibilities of studying the precise number of inhabitants of some regions in Bohemia and their division into sexes, into children and adults, into married, unmarried and widowed, the distribution by age or by marital status, the sex-ratio of males per 100 females, the marriage market, the size and composition of households, the structure of the household and the socio-economic characteristics. The analysis of the nominative lists between 1585 and 1700, when Czechoslovakia has a few parish register studies on an aggregative basis, should greatly help further work on the historical demography of Czechoslovakia.

Notes sur quelques paroisses du Guatemala en 1813

A sample of ten villages (mostly Indian) of the 1813 census has been used. The results are compared to those of the same type of document (nominal lists) for Guatemala City in 1824. The sex ratio is very low for men 15-24 years old. This is due to a strong emigration of young girls towards cities. Almost ail the Indians under age 50 are married but celibacy runs high among Spanish and mestizo maies (13 % above 50). Age at marriage is a little higher for Spaniards and mestizos. The age structure shows that young children are underenumerated. However, fertility when estimated with the ratio-children aged 0-4/women aged 15-49 is higher than that of the 18th century France.

Some Remarks on Coverage Checks in Population Censuses

As standards of statistical accuracy are raised, it becomes necessary to test by a kind of coverage check the quality of data in censuses, for enumeration is sometimes far from complete.' One example of a post-enumeration coverage check which makes use of sampling is given by the U.S. census of I95o. The procedure was as follows :2 a sample of enumeration districts was selected as primary units and within these a sample of dwelling units was drawn. Within the primary units the check was made to ascertain whether some dwelling units had been omitted, and in the dwelling units selected the task of the field workers was to determine how many persons had been omitted, and how many had been incorrectly included in the count. Another example is given by the I953 Census of Population in Yugoslavia.3 The procedure was an adaptation of the method just described. The sample again consisted of enumeration districts. Field workers were sent out as soon as enumeration was complete, and were instructed to draw up nominal lists of persons who should in their opinion have been enumerated in the census. These lists were compared with completed census schedules, and any differences were specially investigated. The result of this special investigation was taken as final. These two examples have one characteristic in common. Field workers were sent to an enumeration district, where they had to determine whether a person had been correctly or incorrectly enumerated in the census. For reasons of economy, field workers had to disregard whether or not these persons had been enumerated elsewhere. This procedure will be called a single unit method of checking.
