美国新移民中的异族婚姻
Intermarriage among new immigrants in the USA

内容摘要: 基于2003年新移民的调查数据,我们研究了美国新移民的婚姻行为。与主流美国本地人进行婚姻同化程度最高的是欧洲移民,其次是拉丁美洲人,东南亚人,东亚人,最后是南亚人。婚姻同化没有单一的“亚洲”模式。对于南亚人和东亚人,尽管他们具有较高的结构同一性,但他们用强烈抗拒与主流的异族婚姻来挑战传统的婚姻同化理论,东南亚人则显示了高程度的婚姻同化。正像经典理论预测的,欧洲人表现了高程度的婚姻同化。拉丁美洲人和东南亚人居于欧洲人和其他亚洲次族群这两个极端之间,相比欧洲人他们有稍微高一点的在同族裔中结婚的倾向,他们似乎沿着一条分段同化的路径,这显示了沿着经典路径进行中的同化过程。


Abstract: Using the 2003 New Immigrants Survey data, we explore marital behavior among new immigrants in the USA. Marital assimilation with mainstream US natives was highest among European immigrants, followed by Latin Americans, Southeast Asians, East Asians, and finally South Asians. There is no single ‘Asian’ pattern of marital assimilation. While south Asians and East Asians defy the classical assimilation theory with their strong resistance to intermarriage within the mainstream despite their high degree of structural assimilation, Southeast Asians display high rates of such marital assimilation. Europeans, as predicted by classical theory, evince high rate of marital assimilation. Latin Americans and Southeast Asians lie in between the two extremes of Europeans and other Asian subgroups. While they seem to follow a path of segmented assimilation by demonstrating within-region endogamy, compared to Europeans they have only a slightly higher propensity to marry within their nationality, suggesting ongoing assimilation along classical lines.
