With the passing of Clifford Collier Clogg at the age of 45 on May
7th 1995, the world lost a talented sociologist, demographer, and
statistician all at once. In addition to being a considerable
talent in each of these three disciplines, and perhaps more
importantly, Cliff was the type of person who brought to gether
diverse elements and scholars from all three. Cliff was also a
consum mate mentor, nurturing ideas and students and always
striving to bring out the best in both. Perhaps nothing illustrates
the stature, impact, and respect others held for Cliff more than
the fact that never before-and never since has an individual been
honored at the time of his death with ceremonies from the national
associations of all three of these disciplines. The purpose of this
book is to introduce to a broad constituency of social scientists
and their students some of the basic ideas in the study of the
labor force that Cliff and his colleagues had grappled with. At the
time of Cliff's death, he was perhaps better known for his
methodological contributions to sociology and demography than he
was for his substantive contributions to the study of social
stratification and the labor force. Our goal is to highlight
Cliff's substantive contributions to sociology and demography by
telling the cumulative story of his research and adding updated
analysis that advances the story beyond the early 1980s to the
mid-1990s."
