cospon ored with the Rus ell Sage Foundation and the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, with the collabora路 tion of the U.S Bureau of the Censu . This volume traces women's transition from the private domains of marriage and family life to the more public domain of higher education and paid employment. Fertility is at a historic low, while women' educational attainment and labor force participation are at an all-time high. The e trend are the hallmark of an industrialized society and thus omewhat predictable. Yet the timing of the hift is important. In the 20 year between the 1960 and 19 0 cen u e, the average number of children per American woman declined from over three to fewer than two (below replacement level), the proportion of women with a college degree doubled, and the proportion of women in the labor force increa ed dramatically. The greate t change in labor force participation took place among women with chilo dren: In 1960, very few wive with children were in the labor force; by the early 19 0 , one-half of wives with pre choolers and over three-fifth of wive with chool-age children were working outside the home. From both ociety's and the individual's tand路 point, the structure of the family and the labor market have changed. Families are smaller and demand for child care are greater than they were in the pa t. Some traditionally male occupation are increa ingly female. Greater participation in the labor force has re ulted in different expectation and demands by women, which in turn have produced efforts at ocial change. The women's movement of the 1960 gave birth to the Equal Rights Amendment legi lation of the 1970, but the ERA had been defeated by the time this book was completed in 1985. Previous eries of Cen us monograph have not included a eparate volume on women. A wide variety of data for women were available in monograph on the family, education, and the labor force, but not until 1980 were changes in women's roles con idered sufficiently important to warrant the introduction of a specialized volume. Indeed, in the pa t, a woman' arena was primarily in the home and wa almo t ynonymous with "marriage and the

family." But extensive ocial changes have taken place between the monographs written after the 1940 censu and today; much of that change occurred since the la t monographs ba ed on the 1960 censu were published. This book summarizes the major demographic and social changes for women in the po t-World War II period and pre ents them in one integrated reference work. The monograph is organized around the theme of women' tran ition from the private spheres of home and family to the more public spheres of education and work for pay. Chapter 1 through 3 review change in marital tatus, fertility, and household living arrangements, documenting the trend toward delayed marriage, higher divorce rates, lower and later fertility, and greater independence in living arrangements. These chapters cover the roles of wife, mother, and caregiver traditionally held by women. They show that the vast majority of women continue to marry and have children, but do so at later ages than they did in the past. Partly due to delayed marriage and higher divorce rate , more women are maintaining their own households now. While chapter 1 and 2 show upport for continued commitment to marriage and the family, chapter 3 challenges the assumption that most women are cared for by others, first by their fathers and then by their husbands. The increase in the proportion of households maintained by women reflects today's more independent lifestyles. These changes in living arrangements set the stage for chapters 4, 5, and 6, which focus on the increa ingly public roles women are playing by attending college, participating in the labor force, and earning a living. Historically, women have had higher rates of high chool graduation than men, but lower rates of college enrollment and completion. Women have now caught up with men in college enrollment rates and continue their progress in earning degrees (although completion rates are still lower than men's). Partly due to greater educational attainment, women's labor force participation rates have increased dramatically in the past 20 years. Changes in education and the labor force, however, have been more significant than changes in earnings: Women continue to earn considerably less than men, and this earnings difference has a particularly harsh impact on hou eholds in which women are the primary earners. Chapter 7 and 8 examine the outcome of the overlap between women's private and public roles by reviewing the relationship between household living arrangements, income, and poverty and between JUNE

fertility and labor force participation. The concluding chapter speculates on the balance truck by women in their attempt to integrate private and public roles. The authors say "speculate" becau e the census data which form the core of this book do not address ociological or psychological correlate of the demographic changes summarized. The framework focuse on transition and balance: The ubtitle of the book could be "The Balancing Act" to reflect the challenge of competing roles that women face today.

Law and the Social Sciences, edited by Leon Lip on and Stanton Wheeler. Prepared by the Committee on Law and Social Science (1974-84). New York: Rus ell Sage Foundation, 1987. viii + 752 page. Cloth, 42.50. The Council's Committee on Law and Social Science (1974-84) became convinced that the time wa at hand for an a e sment of re earch in law and the ocial science .1 Although this volume is in a formal en e a committee product, in a larger sen e it is the product of a generation of cholar -mo tly social cientists and law profe ors-who believe that the perspectives, data, and methods of the social sciences are e ential to a better under tanding of the law. The enterprise of law and social cience that is reflected in the e pages is an outgrowth of the enormous expansion of the ocial and behavioral sciences that took place in the 1950 and afterward in the United States, building on wartime and postwar research and training. That general movement brought new funding for social re earch through the establishment of the National Institute of Mental Health and the social science division of the National Science Foundation. It was also marked by a period in which private philanthropy, most notably the Ford Foundation, made ignificant grants for large- cale social research (the most prominent result in law-andsociety work being the jury studies made by Harry Kalven, Jr., Hans Zeisel, and their colleague ). There are many signs of the field's institutionalization. There has been a consistent flow of funding specifically for work in law and ocial science since at 1 The members of the Committee on Law and Social Science were Leon Lipson.

lea t the late 1950 , when the Council-with upport from the Ford Foundation-began to give postdoctoral grants for re earch on American governmental and legal processes. The program ultimately became the respon ibility of a new Council Committee on Governmental and Legal Proce ses (1964-72). In the early 1960 , the Ru ell Sage Foundation began to devote a major portion of its re ources to the law-and- ociety field. Beginning in the early 1960 and continuing for over a decade, Ru ell Sage funding provided the principal re ource for training and re earch in law and the ocial ciences. Also important wa the development of a new program in in law and ocial cience at the ational Science Foundation ( SF). The NSF had been funding ba ic re earch in the ocial cience for many years, but it had never developed a specific program to upport re earch in law and ocial cience. In 1972, uch a program wa initiated, along the line of other NSF programs: the screening and selection of re earch propo al through a ystem of peer review and the award of re earch grants to succe ful applicants. Although the total budget i mall (around 1 million a year), it provide a ba is for the continuity of re earch and of re earch interests. Tho e receiving awards include anthropologi ts, economists, political cienti ts, p ychologi ts, and ociologi ts, along with tho e trained primarily in law. Other patterns of upport have been institutionalized in a number of European countrie : for example, at variou Max Planck in titute in Germany and at the Centre for Socio-Legal tudie at Oxford. The growth of the enterpri e is al 0 reflected in the birth of as ociation and journal devoted pecifically to interdi ciplinary concern. In the United State, the Law and Society A ociation repre ent a large portion of thi intere t. The a ociation' annual meetings are attended by lawyer a well a by ocial cienti ts. The Law & Society Review, the official organ of the a ociation, ha been in exi tence for over 15 year. A trategically important role wa played aloin the late 1960s and early 1970 by the Council on Law-Related Studies under the leader hip of David F. Cavers, who before moving from Duke to Harvard had been active in founding Law & Contemporary Problems. David C. Caver encouraged and, through the Council on Law-Related Studie , took much of the initiative and provided the fund that led to the formation of the Committee on Law and Social cience. The preparation of this book wa upported by a grant to the Council from the Law and Social 4

Westoff, Princeton University.' The committee is cosponsored with the Russell Sage Foundation and the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, with the collaboration of the U.S. Bureau of the Census. The chapter in this volume were initially prepared for a conference on "The Political Economy of ational Statistics," held in Washington on October 1~15, 1983. The conference was sponsored by the Social Science Research Council's Committee for Research on the 1980 Census. The conference was chaired by William Alonso, Harvard University, and Paul Starr, Princeton University. They edited the book and wrote the "Introduction," from which the following paragraphs are taken. A central tenet of this book is that statistics cannot be constructed on purely technical grounds alone but require choice that ultimately turn on considerations of purpo e and policy. The point is well illustrated by the three chapters in Part I, The Politics of Economic Measurement. In the first, Raymond Vernon [Harvard Univer ity] first looks at the competing views of tati tic held by professional government statisticians, political leaders and policy makers, and academic ocial cientists. He then considers three cases-comparative figures on economic growth, productivity, and military expenditures-that illustrate the policy choices that inevitably must be made in con tructing statistical information. Christopher Jencks [Northwe tern University] examines the choice in the measurement of income, and asks why official stati tic of family income in the United States in the 1970 continued to be reported in a highly mi leading fa hion when the deficiencies were well known. Mark Perlman [University of Pittsburgh] examine the development of the national income account and finds that the policy interests of Keyne ian economists were critical in shaping the tructure of the accounts in the United States. In the United States as well as Western Europe, the censu ha been the subject of particularly open and trenuou political conflict in the la t decade. Part II, The Politic of Population Mea urement, begin with a chapter by Margo Conk [University of Wisconsin] on the hi torical roots of the controver ies that erupted over the 1980 U.S. census. William Peter en [Carmel, California] takes a broad look at the hi tory and nature of di pute over the definition and mea urement of ethnicity, and Nathan Keyfitz [Harvard Univer ity] examine the political and

social aspects of the inexact art of population forecasting. The constitutional mandate for a census grew primarily out of the need to apportion seats in the House of Representatives and the Electoral College. The functions of government statistics have since expanded, but they continue to be tied closely to the demands of democratic government. Part I II, Statistics and Democratic Politics, deals with those connections. Kenneth Prewitt [The Rockefeller Foundation] puts the problems in the context of democratic theory and argues that, despite its limitations, the nation's number system has become vital to pursuing two e ential goals of a democratic polity: accountability and the representation of diverse intere ts. Steven Kelman [Harvard University] takes up similar themes in providing an explanation for an apparent conundrum: why the federal government in the nineteenth century produced elaborate statistics at a time when theories of minimal government prevailed. Why did Americans make an exception of tati tical inquirie , some of which involved intrusive que tions by government about private activities? Kelman rejects an explanation offered by microeconomic theory, which emphasizes the use of government to overcome problems of market failure, and cite historical evidence to argue that statistics were sought for their use in informing political debate, confirming national identity, and securing group recognition. In the final chapter in Part III, Abigail Thernstrom [Lexington, Massachusetts] offers a omewhat darker view of the use of statistics. She also focu es on an issue relevant to democratic practice-the as urance of minority repre entation-and suggests that statistical tests have served as a form of camouflage for changing political objectives in the enforcement of voting rights over the past two decade . Among their many functions, stati tics al 0 mediate the re olution of conflict. In Part IV, Statistics and American Federali m, three chapter deal with the interplay of statistics and the various level of government in the United State. Richard P. Nathan [Princeton Univer ity] analyzes the "politics of printouts": the u e of statistical formulae to distribute federal aid and the resulting political burden im po ed on the statistics and tatistical agencie. Judith de Neufville [Univer ity of California, Berkeley] looks at the effect on local statistical practice of changing federal policy, particularly the hift from categorical programs to revenue- haring and block grants, which create different demand for data. She empha izes the difficulties of local governments in I For a ro ter of committee members. ee footnote 1. page 2. above. coping with statistical needs, in part becau e of local

One of the mo t promising means for re olving the inherent ten ion that now exists between the public's intere t in cientific inquiry and the equally legitimate intere t in protecting the confidentiality of information lies in statutes and regulations that recognize the re earch u es of data by tho e out ide of the data collecting agency but which al 0 recognize the liability of the harmful mi u e of the e data in exchange for thi acce s. Inherent in the wide variety of statute under which current decisions regarding acce s are made i an opportunity for systematic com pari ons of variations in the legal and admini trative conditions under which re earcher are provided or denied acce s to such record , and their con equences for research acce and the protection of confidentiality. The e statute and regulations vary by whether they (1) explicitly provide for the relea e of information for econdary analysis; (2) protect a re earcher's u e of uch data from administrative, judicial, or legi lative inquiry and subpoena; (3) specify any obligation on the part of secondary users to protect the anonymity of records; (4) require formal confidentiality agreements for the u e of data; and (5) apply anction against researchers who violate their confidentiality. One federal statute-the Crime Control Act of 1973-incorporates many of the e provisions, and a tudy of criminal justice agencie and criminology researchers suggests that "the fir t critical criterion guiding access determination is whether the agency has a statutory or administrative basis for allowing acce s to the requested records" (Dahmann & Sasfy 1982, page 25). There are few uch studies of the statute and administrative procedure under which research access is provided or denied and the empirical conditions under which the competing claim of research and confidentiality can be met. 2. Institutional mechanisms for weighing costs and benefits of access. The locus of decisions about the release or restraint of data resides with program JUNE

officer of the data collecting or pon oring agency. Propo als to relea e or deny acce s are not vetted, for example, by commi ion who e member hip include broader social interests, e.g., public official outside the agency, scholars, and other member of the public. Enlarging the constellation of intere ts repreented in such deci ions in ofar as the e deci ions affect society, a well a the administration of a particular agency, ha con iderable precedent. The commission that everal European countrie have e tablished to make deci ion about acce and the in titutional review board throughout univer itie in the United State provide clear examples. Unfortunately, re earch on the e institutional mechani m for decision making i not widely known. 3. The analytical technology for disguising data to prevent reidentifuation. Recent advance in statistics promi e to reduce, although not entirely eliminate, the pos ibility of identifying a record from which name and ocial security number have been removed. Unfortunately, orne of thi arne re earch suggest that introducing "noi e" into a data set ufficient to protect the data from reidentification everely impair the quality and integrity of the data for purpo es of re earch (cf. Paass 1985). Blurring techniques often impair cholars' ability to verify and replicate re earch re ults. Moreover, reducing di cloure ri k leaves largely un ettled the level at which tho e ri ks are acceptable. Although it would be valuable to have more rigorou and clearly defined tandards for uch ri k , the interpretation and evaluation of uch indicator would remain largely ubjective. The likely con equence of greater attention to work on the quantification of risk in the face of the changes in technology and data noted above would be to continue to ignore benefits of such acce and the obligations of u ers, while undoubtedly extending restraints on the distribution of information under the gui e of cientific rigor. 4. Public response. Discu ions about privacy and confidentiality often include statements by protagonists about the public's attitude toward the e i ues and what are likely to be (or have been) the public's reaction to various pledges concerning the u e of these data or to the di closure of an individual's identity by the data collector. Many such tatements are merely unsub tantiated a ertions about public opinion, but even the available data are at be t indirect and partial. Conventional survey re earch methods on such topics are likely to be e pecially prone to questionnaire context, wording, and order effects. An 9


incidental que tion or two about acce and confidentiality added to an existing urvey may evokebecau e of the prior que tion context (often not revealed to tho e to whom the e re ults are reported)-image either of government efficiency on the one hand or of Big Brother on the other. A considerable amount of re earch in cognitive p ychology and survey methodology ha demonstrated the effects of apparently imilar que tion on patterns of respon e (cf. Jabine et al. 1984). Although the conceptual di tinction between anonynmity, confidentiality, and privacy can be made, our language and common u e of these terms are 0 overlapping (and often loppy) that one hould not expect the public to be able to respond meaningfully to questions that casually u e the e terms or that evoke such ub tantially different meaning and image a do the e is ue . Previous related re earch uch a Singer (1978) and the National Re earch Council's Panel on Privacy and Confidentiality as Factor in Survey Re ponse (1979) provide intere ting and useful insights into the role played by pledge of confidentiality, informed con ent, and relatively more or Ie s elaborate introduction as to the purpo es and anticipated u es of social surveys. The re ults of this research are both quieting and un ettling for the consideration of acceptable disclosure risk. On the one hand, they suggest that many members of the general public have a poor understanding of what may be implied by confidentiality or doubts that uch pledges can be tru ted. This re earch also sugge ts that uch pledges playa relatively small role in affecting response rates concerning innocuous data. On the other hand, this re earch suggests that a small proportionate difference in pledge of confidentiality may make a large difference to a small but po ibly vocal group who may be able to expo e a data collection program to debilitating public examination. It does not require a majority of the adult U.S. population to decry a data collection program and thus cause it to be discontinued. Moreover, ob erving that small proportions of national surveys object to sharing data for re earch purpo es raise a set of troublesome philo ophical que tions. To find, for example, that 80 per cent of the public is fully supportive of researchers' access to publicly-collected stati tics raises important and longstanding ethical and philosophical que tions concerning the rights and obligations of the other 20 per cent. 5. Conceptual differences and similarities. Considerable confusion and misunderstanding often ari es in 10

di cussions of acce s and confidentiality becau e of the poorly developed and idio yncratic conceptualization and definition of privacy, confidentiality. anonymity, and informed consent. Privacy, in the pre ent context, concerns the withholding of information about the elf from other . In this regard. privacy is u ually not at i ue in the release of publicly-collected data becau e the act of collecting information (ometime voluntarily, ometime under the compulsion of law) i in ome ways already an invasion of an individual's privacy. Violation of the anonymity of the data is more frequently at issue. 2 Anonymity. The concern with anonymity is linked directly to the protection of an individual' identity. Anonymity i not alway linked to the content of information about the per on (although identity and information are clearly related). For example, ome tate permit reporter to protect the anonymity of the source of their information while compelling them to di clo e the information that the e sources reveal. thus damaging the confidentiality of that information even though it may not be possible to a ociate thi information with a particular individual. Reducing the ri k of disclo ing the identity of individual records is more accurately defined as a concern with protecting their anonymity. not their confidentiality, as is frequently asserted. Con[ulentiality is a property inhering in the information and the manner in which it is collected. The information is given with an understanding that it will be cared for by tho e to whom it is entru ted. Confidentiality also embraces the principle of a pecial or privileged relationship 0 important that the state should not force its disclosure. It concludes, for example, information exchanged between a doctor and a patient, and between a clergyman and parishioner. (The privileged tatus of the researcher~u~ ject relationship continues to be adjudicated in U.S. court on a case-by-ca e ba is [Cecil & Griffin 1985]). The overriding concern with confidentiality is with the content of the information. Informed consent directly concerns knowledge about the use of information which is shared between tho e who collect information and those about whom the information is collected. Considerable dispute ari es concerning the extent to which a respondent to a survey could be said to be reasonably informed. Obviously, work on the conceptualization of these and related terms should be conducted within the ! Whether uch disclo ure i (potentially) harmful is another area of contention, but one not con idered here.

fairly rich social and historical context in which such concepts have been developed and u ed (or mi u ed). Insofar as such re earch can draw on the historical and recent experiences of other countrie , the very a sumptions on which this re earch is based will themselves become more apparent and the focus of more attention. Research should question, rather than make assumptions about, ordinary morality and ethic in making judgments about the apparent conflict between individual rights and information needs. Although que tions such as whether "privacy" is a value or a right may be ultimately unresolvable, it remains important to consider them and to draw on the considerable philosophical discourse that concerns itself with the e que tions.

Conclusion Planning for the conference on which this article is based began with a concern for increasing researchers' access to microdata that are collected by U.S. federal statistical agencies while protecting the confidentiality of those who provide such data. The conference concluded with a concern for maintaining and protecting existing levels of access from further reductions. The e fears are based on known instances of denied or constrained access to such data for re earch purposes, concerns about the likely outcome of advances in computational technologies, and the increasing concern voiced by federal statistical agencies about the uncertain future of researcher • access to publicly-collected data. Few of the benefits and most of the burdens and risks for making data available to others fall to the data collector (for a discussion of issues concerning data sharing more generally, see Hedrick 1985). The burden and risks for releasing data that protect the confidentiality of respondents should be more broadly shared among those in the research community who benefit from such access. Many of the fears expressed about reduced

re earch acce s to microdata are concerns about the future, where uncertainty prevails. It would seem prudent for the social cientific community, however, to take the e concerns seriously and to begin now to lay the neces ary groundwork for satisfying the sometimes competing goals of access and confidenti0 ality.

Southeast ian tate, but until recendy the goal eemed elusive. Reflecting on this, specialists on the region have focused on explanations-ranging from cultural characteristics to economic dependence-for the failure of Sou thea t A ian ocieties to "modernize." However, in the pa t decade it has become clear that, in the ASEAN tate at least, a significant tran formation is taking place and an indigenous industrializing leadership is emerging. Recent scholarship suggests that although this leadership is integrated into a world ~ark~t and ofte~ direcdy connected to foreign enterpn e, It cannot simply be dismissed a an adjunct to the interests of the core industrial countries. Though intimately linked with military, bureacratic, and political elites, it is not coterminous with them' . ' nor doe It represent merely an extension of the activities of a commercial bourgeoisie.

Also, for sale outside the United States: London and Sydney: Croom Helm, 1987.295 pages. ÂŁ25.00. To be a Muslim is to be part of a culture with distinct beliefs, ideas, institutional forms, and prescriptive roles. Yet there is a complex interrelationship between a system of knowledge and belief, such as Islam, and the immediate political, economic, and social context of its adherents. This book aims to improve understanding of Muslim social and political action by examining a broad spectrum of Muslim discourse, both written and spoken, to see how meaning is formed by context. It is a broad comparative study and examines discourses produced in opposition to government as well as those produced, in Iran or Pakistan, for example, under an authoritarian Islamic state. Through analyses of sociohistorical contexts and textual materials from East Java, Nigeria, Iran, Pakistan, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Maghreb, and Egypt, the book shows how to "read" a familiar Islamic movement, period of change, or textual source in a newer and more accurate light.

The EEPS definition of Eastern Europe is broad. Its coverage will include areas now in the U .S.S.R., as well as parts of the West that are in many ways part of a Central Europe that includes countries on both sides of the East-West line. Greece and certain VOLUME

aspects of Turkish and Ottoman history will also be included. EEPS will not view Eastern Europe as a side show whose primary importance lies in its unlucky strategic location. Because of its diversity, its vulnerability to outside forces, and its historical experiences, it has had a uniquely creative role in contributing to major cultural and ideological movements in the 20th century. The intellectual and social ferment in this area, and the various attempts being made to escape the economic and political stagnation of the 1970s and 1980s, assure Eastern Europe's continuing importance as a closely-watched series of experiments. EEPS is edited by Daniel Chirot, University of Washington. The contents of the first issue are: "Beginning EEPS," by Daniel Chirot, Univer ity of Washington, and Ken Jowitt, Univer ity of California, Berkeley "The First Soviet Sponsored Election in Ea tern Europe," by Jan T. Gro , Emory University "The Social Origin of East European Politics," by Gale Stoke, Rice Univer ity "Economic Adjustment and the Future of Sociali t Economic Integration," by Jozef M. van Brabant, United Nation (New York) "Hungarian Socialism: The Deceptive Hybrid," by Bennett Kovrig, University of Toronto "Is Hungary the Future of Poland?", by Zvi Gitelman, Univer ity of Michigan

Family Change and the Life Course in Japan, by Susan Orpett Long. A publication of the Joint Committee on Japanese Studies. Cornell University East Asia Papers, 44. xvi + 117 pages. Paper, 5.00. Ithaca, New York: China-Japan Program, Cornell University, 1987. In recent years, American scholarship on the family has drawn from diverse disciplinary and theoretical frameworks as researchers have developed a new approach known as the life course perspective. Utilizing this approach, anthropologists, demographers, social historians, and sociologists attempt to link the development of the individual with that of the family and to see both of these processes embedded in the historical and cultural context primarily of American and Western European populations. These studies have also stimulated research on the part of some Japanese scholars specializing in family change and in comparative research on American and Japanese populations. The life course approach holds JUNE

1987

particular promise for American-Japanese comparisons of the family, especially because of the focus on social change, its attention to the timing of transition events, and its consideration of the interplay between individual lives and the household collective. Susan Long, an anthropologist atJohn Carroll University, has written an introduction to the study of family change in Japan. It is intended to familiarize the American participants in a collaborative research project on Japan-U.S. comparisons of the family and life course. This project was supported by the Joint Committee on Japanese Studies, as well as the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science. Support for the American participants was al 0 provided by the Japan-U .S. Friendship Commission. While not a comprehensive review, this es ay introduces the reader to the main currents and important literature on family change in Japan, mostly of materials only available in Japanese. After brief introductory chapters on the life course approach and Japanese conceptions of the family, Long's review describes research on family change in Japan from both a historical and a sociological perspective.
