    Abstract This paper assesses the migration-development nexus from a new, relational perspective, providing a closer test of existing theories of cross-national dynamics, including migration and development. Using bilateral data, we assess the relationship between migration (im)balances and wage differentials between pairs of countries in the Americas, from 1970 to 2010. The analysis reveals a positive feedback between international migration and cross-national inequalities. Migration responds strongly to wage gaps, which motivate more uni-directional, or imbalanced migration flows in country-pairs. This relationship is particularly strong in contiguous countries. Similarly, wage gaps respond to migration imbalances, which increase per capita income differences in country-pairs, although the effect of migration on wage differentials is smaller than the effect of wage differentials on migration. Together, the results suggest that the migration-development nexus is characterized by a strong internal momentum.

    Abstract We examined the biology and life history of Lea (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae), to determine its potential as a biocontrol agent of A.Cunn. ex Benth. (Fabaceae), an environmental weed in Florida, USA. We analysed data from field surveys in northern Australia and determined life‐history parameters and larval feeding under controlled laboratory conditions. In the field, both larvae and adults of . fed throughout the year on young shoots of . . Two geographically isolated populations of . were collected from Northern Territory and north Queensland, Australia. We examined developmental time, survival, and size of immature stages in the laboratory at 25 °C. Following development through four instars, larvae move to the soil for pupation. Egg‐to‐adult development was approximately 23

    Abstract We present descriptive findings on attitudes towards groundwater conservation and management from a survey of 1,226 producers farming in the High Plains/Ogallala aquifer region of the United States. We find that a super-majority of producers agree that groundwater should be conserved rather than entirely depleted. The majority perceives groundwater depletion to be a serious problem. Producers perceive depletion to be a greater problem for their communities than for their own farming operations. There is overwhelming agreement that groundwater should be conserved for altruistic reasons to benefit future generations in the community. Most producers believe they have limited personal capacity for additional groundwater conservation on their farms, and few are involved in voluntary group conservation initiatives. We suggest that a key element of the conservation challenge is social and that future efforts should focus on developing networks, capacities, and cultures of groundwater conservation on the High Plains.

    Abstract Socio-hydrology has quickly emerged as a potentially transformative interdisciplinary science for understanding barriers and opportunities to enhance sustainability in coupled human-water systems. Unequal, pre-existing social structures are an important feature of human-water system that shape the flow of water. Yet, the socio-hydrology has not yet fully attended to the issues of social stratification, inequality, and power. This paper reviews advances in the field of environmental sociology on the relationship between social inequality and the natural environment. The goal is to open up questions about social inequalities that would further enhance socio-hydrological science.

    Abstract The ‘competitive threat’ theoretical model leads to the expectation that flows of documented and undocumented immigrants, economic downturns, and spread of conservative-nationalist ideologies would increase opposition to immigration. Recent studies on attitudes toward immigrants in American society do not show any increase in anti-immigrant sentiment. In the present study, we use data from the General Social Surveys (GSS) and American National Election Survey (ANES) to study change in opposition to immigration between 1996 and 2018. The findings obtained from the two data sources are strikingly similar and lead to the following conclusions. First, opposition to immigration had steadily and monotonously declined throughout the period. Second, the decline is evident even after considering variations and changes in the composition of the population, shifts in political ideologies, regional variations and cohort replacement. Third, the trend of decline in opposition to immigration takes a linear form. Fourth, opposition to immigration is stronger among Republicans and Independent voters than among Democrats. Fifth, the overtime decline in opposition to immigration was evident mostly among supporters of the Democratic Party increasing the division along party lines. The findings suggest that immigration is becoming a major political issue that is steadily polarizing American society.
