十九世纪美国的德意志和爱尔兰移民之比较

A Comparative Study of German and Irish Immigrants in America in the Nineteenth Century

在 1 9世纪进入美国的移民集团中 ,德意志人和爱尔兰人是最大的两支。因固有文化传统和现实条件等因素的影响 ,两者在美国经济、政治发展进程中所起的作用各不相同 ,文化移入的模式也不一样。由于德意志和爱尔兰移民数量巨大 ,他们的差异在美国政治、经济和文化的发展进程中留下了深远的影响。

Among the immigrants who arrived in the United States in the nineteenth century the German and the Irish were the two largest groups. Under the influence of their respective traditions and the social conditions at that time they made different contributions to economic development. Still, both groups had separate effects on the evolution of American politics and showed distinct patterns in the course of acculturation. Since both the number of the German immigrants and that of the Irish immigrants were very large, their differences had a strong impact on the political, economic and cultural development in the United States.
