Primary emphasis has been given to two major subject areas: materials dealing with the situation of immigrant ethnic groups, their psychological adjustment, and conditions affecting acculturation; and materials dealing with patterns of ethnic behavior, identity, family life, and communication structure. Because the study of ethnic groups encompasses such a large number of topics, any bibliography treating even selected aspects would have to limit scope and coverage. Extensive coverage of American Negroes, American Indians, and Mexican Americans is not attempted in this document. Some of the more recent general studies of these groups, and general studies on intergrcup and ethnic-racial relations, have been included, but it was felt that materials specific to Negroes, Indians, and Mexican Americans were better dealt with in specialized bibliographies. The significance of ethnicity in American life is a major program concern of the Center for Studies of Metropolitan Problems. The present document represents a first step toward the development of an ongoing comprehensive bibliography in the area of ethnicity.

PREFACE Because the study of ethnic groups encompasses such a large number of topics, any tibliography treating even selected aspects would have to limit scope and coverage. The items in this bibliography explore the theory, and the social, cultural and psychological consequences, of membership in a minority or ethnic group. Primary emphasis has been given to two major subject areas: materials dealing with the situation of immigrant ethnic groups, their psychological adjustment and conditions affecting acculturation; and materials dealing with patterns of ethnic behavior, identity, family life, and communication structure. Extensive coverage of American Negroes, American Indians, and Mexican Americans is not attempted in this document. Some of the more recent general studies of these groups, and general studies on intergroup and ethnic-racial relations, have been included, but it was felt that materials specific to Negroes, Indians or Mexican Americans were better dealt with in specialized bibliographies such as the following: Davis, John P. ed. The American Negro Reference Book. Englewood Cliffs, N.J.: Prentice Hall, 1966. Index to Periodical Articles by and about Negroes. Compiled by the staffs of the Hallie Q. Brown Memorial Library, Central State College, Wilberforce, Ohio, and the Schomburg Collection of Negro Literature and History, The New York Public Library. Boston: G.K. Hall and Company, 1971.

Alphabetical arrangement by author and a detailed subject index have been used as the simplest and most practical format for the bibliography. Since most entries deal with more than one topic, a single articleor book may appear up to four times in the subject index. The great majority of books and articles chosen for inclusion have appeared since the end of World War II but some important pre-war references are also included. The facilities of the Library of Congress and of the library of The Catholic University of America were the main sources for the compilation of the bib- liography. Entries from the Library of Congress were selected from the fol- lowing headings: Acculturation, Assimilation, Ethnocentrism, U.S. Minorities, U.S. Foreign Population, U.S. Immigration, as well as specific ethnic groups (Irish, Italian, etc.). UNESCO bibliographies on sociology and anthropology, the Social Sciences and Humanities Index, Sociological Abstracts, Psycho- logical Abstracts and Dissertation Abstracts were also consulted. Coverage provided by the abstracts was the greatest aid in locating relevant material for the annotated part of the bibliography. Special acknowledgement must be given to the George Washington University Report on World Populations, published in 1945 under the direction of Dr. Stanley J. Tracey, by Dr. Richard C. Haskett (section on History), Dr. Carl B. Lavall (section on Sociology) and Dr. William E. Schmidt (section on Economics). It is probably the most comprehensive bibliography on immigra- tion and ethnic groups, though it is unfortunately out of print. The bibliography was prepared in partial completion of NIH Contract 71-753. The author acknowledges with appreciation the friendly support of Dr. Elliot Liebow, Chief of the Center for Studies of Metropolitan Problems, and the cooperation and assistance of his staff. Special recognition must be given to Miss Felicia Giedrys, graduate student of library science, The Catholic University of America, and assistant to the project, for much of the preparation of both the annotated and unannotated entries.

An early study of jobs and wages secured by immigrants through Chicago employment agencies. Although intended to be a factual account of the existing conditions of the period, its greatest value lies in the use that may be made of it for present comparisons of immigrant employment conditions. (2)Abramson, Harold J. and C. Edward Noll."Religion, Ethnicity, and Social Change." Review of Religious Research, vol. 3 (Fall, 1966), pp. 11-26. Variables such as social class do not give a sufficient explanation of behavioral differences among ethnic and religious groups.There are clear differences between Catholics and Protestants that indicate the impact of denominational differences among the Protestants, and group differences based on continuing ethnic affiliations among the Catholics. A careful consideration of ethnic groups and denominations must be a part of any study or research in the analysis of religious behavior, and ethnic attachment,
