THEORY ON THE SOCIAL SPATIAL STRUCTURE OF CITIES RECOGNIZES A RANGE OF UR TYPES FROM PREINDUSTRIAL THROUGH TRANSITIONAL TO MODERN. A RECENT FORMULATION OF AN EVOLUTIONARY THEORY OF URBANIZATION BY D. W. G. TIMMS (THE URBAN MOSAIC, CAMBRIDGE, ENGLAND: CAMBRIDGE U PRESS, 1971), THEORIZED UPON THE BASIC DIMENSIONS & THEIR SEPARATION THROUGH TIME, OF SOCIAL ORGANIZATION & RESIDENTIAL SPACE IN THE CITY AS IT MODERNIZES. THESE CONCEPTS ARE REVIEWED, REORGANIZED, & EXTENDED TO OUTLINE AN EVOLUTIONARY THEORY OF UR SOCIOSPATIAL STRUCTURE FROM WHICH A CLASSIFICATION OR TYPOLOGY OF UR AREAS IS DERIVED. EMPIRICAL ANALYSIS IS CONDUCTED WHICH EXAMINES THE EXTENT TO WHICH THE ECOLOGICAL STRUCTURE OF PORT OF SPAIN, TRINIDAD, IS CONSISTENT WITH THIS THEORY. INSUFFICIENT STRESS HAS BEEN PLACED UPON THE IMPORTANCE OF 'CULTURAL VARIANCE'. NEGLECT OF THIS CONCEPT OF ETHNIC, RELIGIOUS, & SUBCULTURAL VARIATION OF UR POPULATION SUBGROUPS IS A CRITICAL FLAW IN EXTANT CROSS-CULTURAL COMPARISONS OF UR ECOLOGICAL STRUCTURES. THIS EVOLUTIONARY THEORY OF UR SOCIOSPATIAL STRUCTURE LINKS THE CHANGING ECOLOGICAL STRUCTURE TO MODERNIZATION WITHIN A CROSS-CULTURAL CONTEXT. THE RESIDENTIAL STRUCTURE OF AN UR AREA REFLECTS THE SOCIAL DIFFERENTIA OPERATING WITHIN ITS SOCIETY. MODERNIZATION OCCURS WITHIN DIFFERING CULTURAL CONTEXTS & THESE IMPACT THE OPERATIVE SOCIAL DIFFERENTIATION & THE UR STRUCTURE. THE OUTCOME IS A 2 LEVEL TYPOLOGY OF UR SYSTEMS BASED UPON 'EVOLUTIONARY STAGE' & 'CULTURAL CONTEXT'. A CROSS-SECTIONAL ANALYSIS UTILIZES OBLIQUE FACTOR ANALYSIS ON CENSUS DERIVED DATA TO IDENTIFY THE NATURE OF & R BETWEEN THE DIMENSIONS OF SPATIALLY-EMBEDDED SOCIAL STRUCTURE FOR PORT OF SPAIN IN 1960. A LONGITUDINAL 'COMPARATIVE STATICS' STUDY COMPARES THE STRUCTURE OF PORT OF SPAIN IN 1960 WITH THAT IN 1931 TO PROVIDE DIRECT EVIDENCE OF CHANGES THROUGH TIME IN THE INTERDEPENDENCIES BETWEEN THE DIMENSIONS OF SOCIOSPATIAL STRUCTURE. NONE OF THE HYPOTHESES DERIVED FROM THE EVOLUTIONARY THEORY OF COMPARATIVE UR ECOLOGY COULD BE COMPLETELY UPHELD. THE LACK OF SUCCESS FOLLOWED FROM THE FAILURE OF PORT OF SPAIN TO CORRESPOND TO A POSTULATED COLONIAL 'TYPE'. THIS IS A CONSEQUENCE OF THE DOMINANCE OF 'CULTURAL VARIANCE' IN THE CITY'S SOCIOSPATIAL STRUCTURE. MARKED ETHNIC, RELIGIOUS--CULTURAL--VARIABILITY OF THE UR POPULATION EMERGED AS THE DOMINANT FEATURE OF THE RESIDENTIAL STRUCTURE OF PORT OF SPAIN & COULD ONLY BE INCORPORATED INTO THE ORIGINAL TYPOLOGY IF AN ADDITIONAL CITY TYPE IS INTRODUCED--THE 'PLURAL CITY'. 8 TABLES.

La escritora peruana Mercedes Cabello de Carbonera (1842- 1909) participó a lo largo de su carrera literaria, entre 1874 y 1896, en revistas y prensa extranjera. En este artículo se analizan dos etapas importantes de dicha participación: su colaboración en prensa parisina y su etapa neoyorquina. Estos dos centros ejemplares, de una cultura y modernidad hegemónicas occidentales, utilizan la prensa ilustrada en español como medio de difusión y conquista de un público latinoamericano. A través de esta prensa, Mercedes Cabello se convierte en una interlocutora válida que dialoga con autores, tanto de la tradición anglosajona como francesa, y por lo tanto capaz no solo de refutar el predominio español sobre los escritores hispanoamericanos, sino de defender un americanismo intelectual y, dentro de él, una participación femenina en los debates culturales y de política internacional de finales del siglo XIX. La presencia de Mercedes Cabello en el escenario internacional le permite también visibilizar la necesidad de nuevas alianzas político-económicas entre Perú y las principales economías de Occidente.

Family violence significantly impacts upon Aboriginal women and children globally. Despite this fact, there is a scarcity of published knowledge regarding the nature and efficacy of Aboriginal programmes for men who use violence against women. This article reports the findings from interviews with 15 facilitators of Australian Aboriginal men's healing, fathering and family violence programmes. From these interviews, we have developed a conceptual model of working with Aboriginal men. It accommodates the collective, generational and individual trauma of both perpetrator and victim, while privileging gendered accountability for violence as a central tenet to the work.
