Geo-referencing of Ethnic Groups of Laos

Published by: Open Development Laos

This ethnicity dataset (GREG) is a digital version of the paper Soviet Narodov Mira atlas created in 1964. In 2010 the GREG (Geo-referencing of ethnic groups) project, used maps and data drawn from the Narodov Mira atlas to create a GIS (Geographic Information Systems) version of the atlas. This article describes the creation of the GIS version: http://www.icr.ethz.ch/research/greg/weidmann10greg.pdf This page is the source of the download for this data layer: http://www.icr.ethz.ch/data/other/greg

ကျိုးကြောင်းဆီလျော်မှုရှိ၊ မရှိ	According to Benjamin Bridgman Benjamin.Bridgman@bea.gov of the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analyis: "The Atlas Narodov Mira has been used extensively to investigate the effects of ethnic divisions, but little is known about how it defines ethnicity. Most theories of ethnicity emphasize the tendency of group members to marry within the group (endogamy). This note surveys studies of ethnic intermarriage to evaluate whether the groups in the Atlas: (1) are endogamous and (2) have no endogamous subgroups. I find that the groups are generally endogamous but there are a number of cases of groups with endogamous subgroups. Therefore, the data tend to underestimate ethnic divisions."
