American newspapers are often criticized for failure to provide an understanding of inter-ethnic relations, an issue of renewed significance since the 2000 Census found that Latinos have replaced African-Americans as the largest US minority group. While most inter-ethnic studies of American newspapers focus on Black/White relations, the purpose of this study is to explore how the editors of the Black press in the American South are responding to the growing presence of Latinos, who are assuming a role in the economy and socio-political landscape held until recently by Blacks. The study found that while the Black press rarely provides coverage of Latino issues, the editors empathize with Latino struggles. These findings may indicate a theoretical pattern, termed "empathetic rejectionism" by the authors.

By virtue of international trade, communication, and transportation, events which occur in developing countries have a direct impact upon developed countries. Occupational health is especially effected by this interrelationship because of the large number and very rapid establishment of multinational businesses in developing countries. The speed with which these industries have multiplied has created a unique set of problems and an urgent demand for occupational health care. Occupational health nurses provide much of the direct care to workers in developing countries. Thus, there is an immediate need to study occupational health issues and the status of occupational health nursing in developing countries.
