项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): It is proposed to study racial and ethnic differentiation in U.S. cities in 1880, with a particular emphasis on the relationships between people and places. The project will use full-count census data from the U.S. Census of Population in 1880 to create a wide range of summary files, aggregating information at levels of geography including the enumeration district, city or town, county, metropolitan region, and state. For all 98 separately identified cities in 1880, analyses will investigate the effects of city and group characteristics on aggregate patterns of separation or assimilation. For the largest 25 cities, Geographic Information System (CIS) maps will be developed for all variables in 1880 at the level of enumeration districts. In these cities, measures of spatial clustering will be used to identify ethnic neighborhoods. Models will be estimated analyzing what personal and household characteristics of individuals are associated with living within (or outside) ethnic neighborhoods and working within (or outside) ethnic employment niches. A separate sample of 37,000 men with records matched between 1870 and 1880 will be the basis for models in which key characteristics in 1870 will be introduced. An important component of the project will be the creation and dissemination of public-use data files. These will include pretabulated summary files based on individual data, CIS boundary files for enumeration districts in major cities, and a multilevel dataset that combines individual and household data for a 1 percent sample of the population with information about the places where they live. This new data infrastructure will expand opportunities for social scientists of all disciplines on a key period in American history: a time when the Western frontier was still being settled, when the transformation of the country from an agricultural to an industrial economy was only beginning, when African Americans had only recently been released from slavery, when cities like Chicago were in their infancy and older cities like New York were still receiving their first waves of German and Irish immigrants, and the nation was on the verge of the next great wave of population movements - of blacks from South to North, of immigrants from Southern and Eastern Europe, and Chinese and other groups from East Asia.

描述（由申请人提供）：建议在1880年研究美国城市的种族和种族分化，特别强调人们与地方之间的关系。该项目将在1880年使用来自美国人口普查的全体人口普查数据，以创建广泛的摘要文件，在枚举区，城市，城镇，县，大都市地区和州等地理水平上汇总信息。对于1880年分别确定的所有98个城市，分析将研究城市和群体特征对分离或同化骨料的影响。对于最大的25个城市，将为1880年的所有变量开发地理信息系统（CIS）地图。在这些城市中，将使用空间聚类的度量来识别种族社区。将估计模型，分析个人的个人和家庭特征与在族裔社区内（或外部）居住在（或外部）族裔就业壁ches中的工作相关。一个单独的样本，包括1870年至1880年之间具有记录的37,000名男性的样本，将是1870年关键特征的基础。该项目的重要组成部分是创建和传播公共使用数据文件。这些将包括基于单个数据的摘要文件，主要城市的枚举区的顺式边界文件，以及一个多级数据集，该数据集将1％的人群样本的个人和家庭数据与有关其居住地点的信息结合在一起。 This new data infrastructure will expand opportunities for social scientists of all disciplines on a key period in American history: a time when the Western frontier was still being settled, when the transformation of the country from an agricultural to an industrial economy was only beginning, when African Americans had only recently been released from slavery, when cities like Chicago were in their infancy and older cities like New York were still receiving their first waves of German and Irish immigrants, and the nation was on下一个大人口运动的边缘 - 从南部到北的黑人，南欧和东欧的移民以及东亚的中国和其他群体的边缘。
