Commentaar op W. C. Ultee\u27s \u27Over sociale ongelijkheid\u27
No full textPresented are comments on W. C. Ultee\u27s arguments (see SA 29:1/81L2252). In Is dat nou kritisch-rationalistisch ondersoek? (Is This a Critical-Rationalistic Investigation?) J. Dronkers (Netherlands University, Amsterdam) argues that the eighteen hypotheses Ultee ascribes to revisionist historical-materialism are poorly founded empirically. Some of his hypotheses are more characteristic of Christian democrats, liberals, or enlightened conservatives than of social democrats. Ultee\u27s refutation of some of these hypotheses falls short of its goal. In particular he makes the empirical difficulties faced by the social democrat hypotheses seem exaggerated. Also, Ultee does not have an adequate instrument for measuring progress in postwar socialist thinking. J. Tinbergen argues that more research is necessary on possible national differences & on the limits on social equality due to heredity. He points out several phenomena neglected by Ultee & some unfortunate formulas, eg, degree devaluation. Underutilized instruments of socioeconomic policy are mentioned. H. M. Veld-Langeveld defends Ultee\u27s report. Its goal was not to analyze postwar revisionist socialism. It has contributed at least two major insights by emphasizing: (1) the overlapping of various aspects of unequal distribution from which the existence of a strongly institutionalized social stratification derives, & (2) the importance of the existing division of labor for social inequality. The problem of status inconsistency is briefly discussed. A. Orianne

Over sociale ongelijkheid. Een weerwoord op drie commentaren
No full textA reply to commentaries by J. Dronkers, J. Tinbergen, & H. M. In\u27t Veld-Langeveld (see SA 29:2/81L3881) on W. C. Ultee\u27s article on social inequality (see SA 29:1/81L2252). Dronkers\u27s criticism of the study\u27s empirical background is refuted, as is his negative view of utilizing the theories of the Dutch Scientific Council for Governmental Policy (WRR) to measure social inequality. Tinbergen\u27s commentary is seen as being generally supportive of the stratification theory in question. In\u27t Veld-Langeveld\u27s critique of the WRR\u27s theories & policies regarding social inequality is analyzed & contradicted. E. Nipperus-Jezeer

Plankartor öfver städerna i Finland af C. W. Gylden
No full textClaes Wilhelm Gyldén (1802-1872) oli maanmittauksen ja metsänhoidon ylihallituksen ylitirehtööri vuosina 1854-72. Ylitirehtööri omisti paljon aikaansa metsänhoidon ja maanjakotoiminnan lisäksi myös maamme kartastotoiminnalle. Hän julkaisi vuonna 1853 Suomenmaan korko-kartan, joka on maailman ensimmäisiä korkeusvyöhykekarttoja. Myös Suomen yleiskartan 1:400 000 (Karta över Finland) ensimmäisen painoksen karttalehdet painettiin vuosina 1864-1872 hänen johtajakaudellaan.
Vuosina 1837-1843 toimiessaan maanmittausinsinöörinä maanmittaushallituksessa C. W. Gyldén julkaisi Suomen kaikkien silloisten kaupunkien kaupunkikartat, yhteensä 31 karttalehteä. Nämä asemakaavakartat painettiin kaikki samassa koossa 50,8 x 65,9 cm. Tästä johtuen karttojen mittakaavat vaihtelivat asteikkojen 1:3200 – 1:10000 välillä. Kaupungin asemakaavan lisäksi jokaisessa kartassa on yleissilmäyskartta, julkisten rakennusten luettelo sekä niiden sijainti. Lisäksi hän julkaisi vuonna 1844 näiden kaupunkien historiaa ja tilastotietoja kuvaavan selityskirjan
