9904365Horowitz / Montgomery-Rinehart This project supports the dissertation research of an anthropology student from the State University of New York at Binghamton, studying how refugees in Mozambique form new social ties through voluntary associations. This research will advance our understanding of how social capital affects the behavior of post-conflict migrants in a hinterland city of Mozambique. Through the analysis of data produced by several social science methods, including participant observation, ethnographic and survey research, ethnographic decision tree modeling, status role inventory/pile sorting and ranking, social network analysis, cohort analysis and life histories, the student will test hypotheses about the ability of new social ties to ameliorate insecurity in war refugees, the nature of shared interests in creating social ties, and the role of kinship in recruitment to voluntary social organizations. This research will provide valuable knowledge to planners faced with the task of dealing with masses of refugees from conflict zones in many parts of the world. In addition the project supports the training of a young social scientist, and advances our knowledge of this important area of the world.

9904365 Horowitz/ Montgomery-Rinehart该项目支持纽约州立大学宾厄姆顿分校一名人类学学生的论文研究，研究莫桑比克的难民如何通过自愿协会形成新的社会联系。 这项研究将促进我们的理解，社会资本如何影响冲突后的莫桑比克内陆城市的移民的行为。 通过分析几种社会科学方法产生的数据，包括参与观察，人种学和调查研究，人种学决策树建模，地位角色清单/桩排序和排名，社会网络分析，队列分析和生活史，学生将测试关于新的社会关系改善战争难民不安全感的能力的假设，创造社会关系的共同利益的性质，以及亲属关系在志愿社会组织招募中的作用。 这项研究将为面临处理来自世界许多地区冲突地区的大批难民的任务的规划人员提供宝贵的知识。 此外，该项目还支持培训一名年轻的社会科学家，并增进我们对世界这一重要领域的了解。
