SUMMARY:Challenges in taking the U.S. census: Old and new
DESCRIPTION:Conference du Dr. Martha Farnsworth Riche\, Cornell Population 
 Center\, Cornell UniversityDr. Riche will undertake a broad discussion of 
 census-taking issues in the United States\, with some comparisons to simil
 ar issues in Canada. She will address such challenges as the conflict betw
 een a census planning and execution cycle that extends over 15 years or mo
 re\, and a budget and appropriation process that starts afresh annually -w
 ith implications for meeting new challenges in the census-taking environme
 nt. Perennial challenges include balancing government's needs for accurate
  data about the public with public concern about government intrusiveness\
 , and addressing issues of over- and under-coverage. In the United States 
 in particular\, political pressures are many and daunting\; they also infl
 uence public responsiveness\, thereby driving up costs and reducing data q
 uality.Presented in collaboration with the University of Montreal Demograp
 hy Department\, McGill University's Centre on Population Dynamics and the 
 INRS' laboratoire d'étude de la population.
