本文是对美国社会中种族持续存在的社会学文献的回顾和部分重新表述。与传统上强调移植的文化遗产作为族群的主要前提和定义特征相反，我们认为族群的发展和持续取决于美国城市的结构条件和族群在美国社会结构中的地位。人们关注的问题是：民族文化是在什么条件下产生的？具体来说，是什么社会力量推动了民族团结和认同的结晶和发展？作为一种新兴现象，族裔随着群体和个人在社会中地位的变化而不断发展。随着社会的变迁，旧的民族文化形式可能会消亡，但新的形式可能会产生。
This paper is a review and partial reformulation of the sociological literature on the persistence of ethnicity in American society. In contrast to the traditional emphasis on the transplanted cultural heritage as the principal antecedent and defining characteristic of ethnic groups, we suggest that the development and persistence of ethnicity is dependent upon structural conditions characterizing American cities and position of groups in American social structure. Attention is focused on the question: under what conditions does ethnic culture emerge? Specifically, what social forces promote the crystallization and development of ethnic solidarity and identification? As an emergent phenomenon, ethnicity continues to develop with the changing positions of groups and individuals within society. As society changes, old forms of ethnic culture may die oui but new forms may be generated.
