BEHRMAN This volume arose from a 2002 request for proposals issued by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation on Urban Studies and Demography. In response to that request, we submitted a proposal to undertake a program of training and research on Social Responses to Structural Adjustment in Latin American Cities. Douglas S. Massey and Jere Behrman served as co-principal investigators on the project, supported by Magaly Sanchez R. as a postdoctoral research associ- ate. The grant was made to the University of Pennsylvania, where Massey and Behrman were on the faculty, and it supported work carried out during academic years 2002-2003 and 2003-2004. The small grants program supported pilot research conducted by faculty and students affiliated with the Population Studies Center and the Urban Studies Program at Penn. During the first year of the award, Massey, Douglas S. Massey is the Henry G. Bryant Professor of Sociology and Public Affairs at Princeton University's Woodrow Wilson School o f Public and International Affairs. Prior to joining Princeton's faculty in 2003, he served on the faculties of the University of Chicago and the University of Pennsylvania. He is currently president of the American Academy of Political and Social Science and past president of the Population Association of America and the American Sociological Association. Magaly Sanchez R. is a professor of urban sociology at the Instituto de Urbanismo, Universidad Central de Venezuela. She is also a senior researcher at Princeton University's Office of Population Research. Her existing work investigates segregated areas in Urban Latin America, gangs, street kick, and violence. Recent research focuses on international migration and the formation of the Latino transnational identity in United States. Jere R. Behrman is the William R. Kenan, Jr. Professor of Economics and a research associate of the Population Stud ies Center at the University of Pennsylvania. He is a leading development economist who has published more than 250 professional articles and 30 books and mono- graphs on these topics and has worked with a number qf international and national development organizations.
