Data Collection Problems and the Identification of Jewish Ethnic Community Patterns: A Reply
Author(s): Newman, David
Date: 1987
Topics: Demography, Geography, Residential Patterns, Methodology
Abstract: Waterman and Kosmin's critique fails to raise any substantially new issues as regards the identification of the spatial and residential patterns of the Anglo-Jewish community. The target population in question must be based on a 'community needs' criteria rather than demographic mass. In addition to ethnic institutions, the use of family names and the identification of 'mezuzot' (religious amulets) provide corroborative methods.
Residential Change in a Middle-Class Suburban Ethnic Population: A Comment
Author(s): Waterman, Stanley; Kosmin, Barry
Date: 1987
Topics: Demography, Geography, Residential Patterns, Methodology
Abstract: Complex social issues such as integration and segregation are often inadequately researched because of terminological and methodological deficiencies and inappropriate scales of study. A recent paper on British Jewry (Newman, 1985) suffers from such failings by discussing these issues but neglecting to relate to them directly in the analysis.
