RESUMO

PIP: "Nominative sources both at origin (Netherlands' emigration records) and at destination (U.S. Ship Passenger Customs Lists) [in the 1800s] are compared on a nominal basis and thus the omission in each series evaluated. The results show both an underestimation of immigration figures and a bias in international migration statistics. Single, young working-class males prevail in nonlinked records, probably corresponding to clandestine emigration. In other respects, however, the passenger manifests seem reasonably reliable, since social structural biases are minimal in this source." (EXCERPT)^ieng
