  • Title: [A critical approach to endogamy: considerations resulting from the reconstruction of French families (Tandil, 1850-1914)].
    Author: Otero H.
    Journal: Estud Migr Latinoam; 1990; 5(15-16):343-78. PubMed ID: 12342980.
    Abstract:
    "Marriage patterns of French immigrants in Tandil [Argentina] are analyzed on the basis of birth and wedding data obtained from local registers using the Louis Henry model to establish the pattern for the whole immigrant group and not restricted to legally wed couples. The study of marital choices is not fully valid unless also the continuity of practices developed at origin as well as composition of the group and patterns of arrival are taken into account. Two main conclusions are presented: the link between [endo-]/exogamic behaviour and the type of migration (individual or chain migration) and the higher exogamy in rural areas." (SUMMARY IN ENG)
