Topic: Miguel Itzigsohn

  Madonna
In fact, the concept of beginnings are changing too, and a connection between the births of Eva Peron, Madonna, her daughter Lola, and the astronomers calculating asteroid orbits and naming them is not as far fetched now as it used to be.
Shortly before Eva Peron's death in 1952, Argentine astronomer Miguel Itzigsohn's admiration for the social and humanitarian activities of Evita, as she was called, moved him to name all five asteroids in her honor.
Whatever vibrational energy inspired Itzigsohn to name those asteroids for Evita, was apparently transferred to Madonna at her birth when those same asteroids were directly overhead.

 DR1 Forums - Free Trade Zones....?
Miguel is twenty years old, has a 6th grade education, and comes from a family with 3 children “de madre y padre.” Miguel’s father also acknowledges 2 children by another woman.
And although Miguel’s father has always tried to financially support both families, the sporadic and meager pay he earns in construction is spread very thin.
Now, I’m not sure if Miguel and his story are realistic or not, but my point is that I think this issue is very complicated and that there are probably pieces of truth to what everyone is saying — even the guys who told me that their work is pseudo slave labor.

 Edited by Patricia Fernández-Kelly and Jon Shefner: Out of the Shadows

Patricia Fernández-Kelly is Senior Lecturer in Sociology at Princeton University, where she also holds an appointment with the Office of Population Research.

 Meyers - Migrant Remittances   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
As in the Dominican Republic, remittances are the largest source of hard currency, and they kept many Salvadorans out of poverty during the difficult 1980’s and early 1990’s.
The greatest inflow of remittances in absolute terms in this region is to Mexico, though its large economy makes remittances a smaller percentage of the total economy and the remittances are generally concentrated in the labor-sending areas, particularly Western Mexico.
Research finds that remittances have had both positive and negative effects, providing discretionary income, middle-class consumption, investments in land and cattle, increased local commerce, and contributions to the balance of payments and job creation.

 Worldwide Gazetteer   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
In a landmark study of history, power, and identity in the Caribbean, Pedro L. San Miguel examines the historiography of Hispaniola, the West Indian island shared by Haiti and the Dominican Republic.
He argues that the national identities of (and often the tense relations between) citizens of these two nations are the result of imaginary contrasts between the two nations drawn by historians, intellectuals, and writers.
Covering five centuries and key intellectual figures from each country, San Miguel bridges literature, history, and ethnography to locate the origins of racial, ethnic, and national identity on the island.

 1588 Descamisada
Asteroid 1588 Descamisada was discovered on June 27, 1951 by Argentinian astronomer Miguel Itzigsohn at La Plata Observatory in La Plata, Buenos Aires, Argentina.
It has a period (year) of 5 years, 105 days.
The glyph for Descamisada is my own invention and is derived from a labor-union symbol: two hands performing a handshake.

Miguel Estrada, nominated by President Bush for a federal judgeship, immigrated to the United States as a teenager from Honduras.
Itzigsohn 2000, 1146, argues, after reviewing the evidence, "transnational elites often challenge the existing sociopolitical order, but theirs are demands for inclusion and recognition as part of that order, not for its radical change." (emphasis mine)
What David Martin (1999, 31) refers to as "simple voting" is in fact anything but simple (Kelley and Mirer, 1974).
