Abstract
-
The dissertation focusses on aspects of ethnic interaction in the United States with specific reference to the American Native peoples, Afro and Puerto Rican Americans.;It utilizes an original abstract model in order to clarify the similar forcible inclusion experiences into the expanding American social system of the systemically depicted 'nonwhite' ethnic groups referred to above. Aspects of the status of the Afro and Puerto Rican peoples in the modern era are related to their 'atypical' but sociologically similar inclusions.;As denoted 'colonized outcaste' ethnic groups, their inclusions into the social system significantly differed from those of the majorities of those original European immigrants who migrated to the social system in the same era focussed on: from the creation of the United States to the early 20th century.;The essay begins with a comment on the Ideology conception, goes on to review some concepts of Race, Institutional Racism and Ethnicity and then comments on generalizations that refer to assimilation, cultural pluralism and the melting pot in the chapter on Social Stratification and The Harmony Conceptions of Ethnic Interaction. The members of the diverse Native Americans included into the social system in the era focussed on are conceived as the 'classical' outcaste ethnic groups. Aspects of the inclusions of these uniquely subordinated peoples are noted in the chapter on Empire, Imperialism and American Native Peoples. The next chapter on Social Processes and Social Positions goes into more detail on these inclusions, with some contrasting comments to the significantly differing inclusion experiences of those European immigrants who 'voluntarily' migrated in the period referred to.;This chapter also presents the original 'ideal type' theoretical model that is used to further clarify aspects of the uniquely pervasive domination that those originally victimized native peoples were confronted with in that era of the American expansion. The final two chapters compares the similar inclusions of the original Afro and Puerto Rican peoples and relates them to their similar victimized status in the modern era.
