On Danish-American Cultural Identity By Signe Sloth In 1967 an article was published which kick-started a discussion that is still going on among sociologists today. The subject of the article is American civil religion and the writer is the American sociologist Robert Bellah who claims that every nation and every people has a religious self-understanding. He advocates an American civil religion that is separated from other denominations and established religious institutions, but just like them demands recognition and understanding. Bellah defines this Civil Religion as " ... A genuine apprehension of universal and transcendental religious reality as seen in or . as revealed through the experience of the American people.1 His main argument is that in every inaugural address by any American president you can find a reference to God. This is not a specific god, but because God is a concept that almost everyone can relate to, whether it being the Christian, Muslim, Hindu or Jewish god, it is a reference that leaves no one out.

Politics Among Danish Americans in the Midwest, ca. 1890-1914 by J0rn Brnndal During the last decades of the nineteenth century and into the twentieth, ethnicity and religion played a vital role in shaping the political culture of the Midwest. Indeed, historians like Samuel P. Hays, Lee Benson, Richard Jensen (of part Danish origins), and Paul Kleppner argued that ethnoreligious factors to a higher degree than socioeconomic circumstances informed the party affiliation of ordinary voters.1 It is definitely true that some ethnoreligious groups like, say, the Irish Catholics and the German Lutherans boasted full­ fledged political subcultures complete with their own press, their own political leadership and to some extent, at least, their own ethnically defined issues. Somewhat similar patterns existed among the Norwegian Americans.2 They too got involved in grassroots­ level political activities, with their churches, temperance societies, and fraternal organizations playing an important role in modeling a political subculture.

  • Word Order in American Danish Declaratives with a Non-Subject Initial Constituent
    journal of language contact 11 (2018) 413-440 brill.com/jlc Word Order in American Danish Declaratives with a Non-Subject Initial Constituent Karoline Kühl University of Copenhagen [email protected] Jan Heegård Petersen University of Copenhagen [email protected] Abstract The paper investigates the placement of subject and finite verb in topicalized, i.e. non-subject initial declarative main clauses in North American Danish. European Danish adheres to the V2-rule and thus requires inversion, while North American Danish allows for non-inversion, i.e. [X]sv word order. Based on a sample of approx. 1700 tokens of topicalized declarative clauses produced by 64 speakers, we observe a general stability of V2 in North American Danish. In order to explain the instances of non-V2, we employ both linguistic and sociolinguistic factors. Keywords North American Danish – syntax – topicalization – V2 – non-inversion 1 Introduction The non-inversion of subject and verb in non-subject initial declarative main clauses (topicalized clauses) is a recognized feature in Germanic heritage languages in North America. This paper adds to the field of research a cor- pus-based study of this phenomenon in American Danish. Standard Danish, a typical V2 language, strictly adheres to the so-called V2 rule, whereby the finite verb is in second position and the preceding field is filled by exactly one © Karoline Kühl and Jan Heegård Petersen, 2018 | doi 10.1163/19552629-01103003 This is an open access article distributed under the terms of the prevailing cc-by-nc license at the time of publication.

IMMIGRANT AMERICA: A PORTRAIT (4th edition, forthcoming) Alejandro Portes and Rubén G. Rumbaut Chapter 3 Moving: Patterns of Immigrant Settlement and Spatial Mobility In the aftermath of World War I, the National Research Council initiated a series of “scientific studies of the causes and effects of migration.” One of these investigations, published in 1926 as Migration and Business Cycles, focused on “the shortage and surplus of labor in the United States in its relation to immigration and emigration.” Its author, the economist Harry Jerome, concluded that the inflow of population was “on the whole dominated by conditions in the United States. The ‘pull’ is stronger than the push.”1 By that time, the gradual integration of the world economy had advanced sufficiently to make many Europeans aware of economic opportunities on the other side of the Atlantic, so deliberate recruitment became unnecessary. The question remains, however, about the destination of these flows. Labor economists frequently write as if immigrants have perfect information about labor market conditions in the receiving country and adjust their locational decisions accordingly. The reality is very different because a number of factors other than wage differentials impinge on the actual destination of migrant flows. This chapter examines the locational distribution of immigrant groups with an emphasis both on diversity among nationalities and types of migration and on the unequal distribution of the foreign-born population in space.

  • Danish Settlement in Minnesota
    DANISH SETTLEMENT IN MINNESOTA The prophecy by Fredrika Bremer of Minnesota as a new Scandinavia has long since come true.^ All the five Scandi­ navian groups — the Swedes, the Norwegians, the Danes, the Finns, and the Icelanders — have settlements there.^ Minne­ sota is today the state having the largest number of citizens of Scandinavian descent, — about seven hundred thousand, — of whom nearly fifty thousand are of Danish blood.' Danish immigration to Minnesota began even before its organization as a territory. One of the first and most promi­ nent bankers of St. Paul in the forties and fifties was Dr. Charles W. Borup, a native of Denmark who had come to St. Paul in 1848. Writing of him in 1851, Miss Bremer says: I have become acquainted with a Danish merchant, resident here, who has made a considerable fortune in a few years in the fur trade with the Indians, and who has built himself a large and handsome country house at some little distance from the city. His wife, who is the daughter of an Indian woman by a white man, has the dark Indian eye, and features not unlike those of the Feather-cloud woman [a fair Indian woman among the Sioux whom Miss Bremer visited] and in other respects is as much a gentlewoman as any agreeable white lady. I promised this kind Dane, who retains the perfect Danish characteristics in the midst of Americans, that I would, on my return, in passing through Copenhagen, pay a visit to his old mother, and convey to her his greeting.
