Ethnic-collective action, intergroup competition and social networks
This inquiry examines the conditions under which ethnicity gives rise to more stable forms of collective action such as ethnic-trade guilds. Derived from competition and enclave theory it tests the hypothesis that ethnic-trade guilds surface in response to: (a) intergroup competition; (b) shared judgement over the fairness of the exigent competition; and (c) the organizing capacity of ethnic networks. Supporting evidence rests on the mobilizing e…
Notes on Emerging Collective Action
This inquiry focuses upon one form of ethnic-collective action among Japanese-American entrepreneurs — in-group trade guilds. They emerge in response to exclusionary and inclusionary forces. The article extends middleman theory to account for ethnic-trade guilds that result from both exclusionary and inclusionary forces and proposes two additional perspectives – competition and enclave theory. Three factors are isolated: 1) interethnic competitio…

Continuity of Ethnic Participation in the Economy
Cultural Endowment, Disadvantaged Status and Economic Niche
Japanese-American immigrants have developed, and at times have dominated, niches in the economy. Operating as a one-man business, the yard care worker (or maintenance gardener) is one telling case. Culturally rooted agricultural know-how and ethnic solidarity along common prefectural lines contributed to the growth of the ethnic trade. By closing options in the market, host hostility exacerbated ethnic fixations. Although marginal early on, the J…
Cultural Endowment, Disadvantaged Status and Economic Niche
A test of competing contact hypotheses in the study of black anti-senutic beliefs
Institutional Completeness and Interpersonal Ties among Japanese American Immigrants
The integration of immigrants is a multidirectional process. A web of social contacts with the larger society, within the ethnic fold, or away from either to remain as isolates can be established. It is argued that the direction of integration is determined by the ability of the immigrant community to contain within its ethnic boundaries the social ties of its members. This is accomplished by the development of institutional completeness
Chronological, Cognitive, and Political Effects in the Study of Interminority Group Prejudice
THE STUDY OF INTERGROUP CONFLICT has occupied a prominent place in American sociology for over half a century, especially during the past two decades. Different perspectives have been employed to comprehend the phenomenon. There has been an especial focus on majority prejudice toward various minorities in American society. A preoccupation with the outlook of the majority, however, has come at the expense of inquiring into the reciprocal, perhaps …

Selective black hostility toward Jewish and non-jewish whites
Merging Fieldwork and Survey Research in the Study of a Minority Community
This paper directs its attention to a study of interminority hostility by joining two competing methodological traditions — fieldwork and survey research. I examine the following contributions of fieldwork to survey research in the study of black anti‐Semitism: (a) selecting a suitable research site and sampling strategy, (b) generating theoretical clues, (c) garnering clues for data collection, and (d) analysis of data. In so doing, I am calling…
Assimilation and Educational Achievement
A review of the literature reveals three conflicting hypotheses concerning Japanese-American educational achievement. Data from a three-generational, national sample of Japanese-Americans are examined to determine the correlates of the second-generation respondents' (the Nisei) educational achievement. Employing four measures of assimilation—cultural, structural, marital, and identificational—the findings suggest that the greater the assimilation…
The Contact Hypothesis
Studies indicate that respondents experiencing equal-status contact across ethnic lines are more likely to hold tolerant attitudes toward minorities than those not having been exposed to such interaction. This paper extends the research on this proposition in three ways. We examine: (1) responses of blacks reporting equal-status contact with Jews; (2) effects of equal-status contact compared with other types of reported associations with Jews suc…
