    Arthur Lehmann Correspondence 1926-1947 Bulk: 1944-1947

    No full text
    This collection primarily consists of Arthur Lehmann's letters to his friend Fanny Geck in New York City. Most letters were written while he was a refugee in the Fort Ontario Emergency Refugee Shelter (1944-1945) and then in Niagara Falls, NY (1946-1947). The letters concern their families (Lehmann's children were in Italy and Germany), political events, Lehmann's writing, and life in camp and, later, in Niagara Falls. Some letters have clippings, poems, or other writings attached to them. The collection also contains a small amount of other correspondence, as well as two short stories and a poem by Arthur Lehmann.The architect and author Abraham Arthur Lehmann (1877-1948) was born in Moenchen-Gladbach, Germany. He married Anna Franziska Machold (died 1932), and together they had three children, Ruth Karl (1910-1989), Lisa Stuckmann (1913-1993), and Richard Lehmann (1915-2011). For most of his career, Lehmann was an independent architect in Mannheim. He also wrote theater reviews for the Mannheim paper Volksstimme and other newspapers in south-western Germany. In August 1939, Lehmann happened to be visiting his son Richard, who had left Germany for Milan, Italy in 1938. When the war started, Lehmann decided to stay in Italy. From 1941 to 1944, both Richard and Arthur were interned at a camp in Ferramonti, Italy.After liberation, Arthur Lehmann was part of a group of 1,000 non-Italian refugees who were granted refuge at Fort Ontario Emergency Refugee Shelter near Oswego, NY. In 1946, he settled in Niagara Falls, NY, where he died on February 3, 1948.Fanny Geck was the daughter of Isidor Baer, cantor and teacher of the Jewish community of Offenburg, Germany and the widow after Oskar Geck, a socialist member of the German Reichstag and the editor of a socialist paper in Mannheim. Geck and Lehmann were already friends in Mannheim in the 1920s.Processeddigitize

    Worker displacement in Russia and Ukraine: a comparative analysis using micro data

    No full text
    Using unique data from a supplement to the RLMS on displaced workers in Russia and from the Ukrainian Longitudinal Monitoring Survey (ULMS) we analyze and provide the first solid evidence on displacement in Russia and Ukraine in a period of growth. Our estimates establish that quits dominate separations but that displacement rates are clearly not negligible amounting to between 2.5 and 3 percent of employment in Russia and between 2 and 5 percent in Ukraine. We also show that displacements are not random. Results that are valid across both countries demonstrate that unskilled and less educated workers are more affected as are workers in the agricultural sector. In countries like Russia and Ukraine where unemployment benefits are not generous or non-existent for the average worker long spells of non-employment can impose large monetary costs on workers. Presenting cumulative return rates for job movers we point to these costs by highlighting the fact that there is a very sizable privileged group of displaced workers who finds a new job within a very short time while the majority has difficulty in finding new employment. This latter group is associated with low educational attainment and low skills. It is this group (larger in Ukraine than in Russia), which is not so rapidly absorbed by the labor market, that should be the target of social policy intervention by the Russian and Ukrainian governments
