H 1100 Classes of Persons

TYPES OF HEADINGS COVERED: The subdivisions listed below may be used on a free-floating basis, as appropriate, under subject headings for classes of persons, including age and sex groups; social, economic, and political categories of persons; types of afflicted persons; members of particular religions; employees and occupational groups; etc. Examples: Youth; Women; Fathers; Poor; Political prisoners; People with mental disabilities; Liver-Cancer-Patients; Catholics; Hare Krishnas; Fire fighters; Judges; Darts players; High technology industries-Employees. The category includes headings for classes of persons that are formulated with subdivisions used under names of places or individual corporate bodies, for example, Great Britain-Officials and employees; Stanford University-Faculty; United States. Navy-Officers. Not included in this category are headings for social classes such as Peasantry; Nobility; Middle class; Working class; nor headings for ethnic groups and nationalities, such as Hispanic Americans; Maori (New Zealand people); French. For subdivisions used under ethnic groups and nationalities, see H 1103. However, headings for classes of persons qualified by ethnic or national adjectival qualifiers are included in this category, for example, African American dentists; French students; Alien labor, Turkish. Subdivisions from this list may be used under headings for groups of literary authors where there is no conflict with a subdivision designated for use under literary authors. Subdivisions specifically for use under literary authors are given in a separate list. For the additional subdivisions used under groups of literary authors, see H 1155.2. Headings for members of religious and monastic orders are also governed by a separate list. For subdivisions used under names of individual religious and monastic orders, see H 1186.

CONFLICTS: Determine if the use of a free-floating subdivision from this list conflicts with a previously established subject heading. In the event of a conflict between an established subject heading and a subdivision on this list, use the established heading unless a decision has been made to update or change all headings of that type. For example, use the established subject heading Child abuse rather than formulate a heading of the type Children-Abuse of. However, previously established headings of the type Teachers, Training of were changed to the form Teachers-Training of.

Note: Most form subdivisions coded $v in this list may also be used as topical subdivisions coded $x when assigned to works about the form (see H 1075, sec. 1.d.).
