The Global Population Migration and Identity: The Clash of Civilizations from the Perspective of Sociology of Religion

自20世纪60年代开始加剧的全球化趋势带来了空前的人口大流动,突破了传统的国界和宗教/文化区域的限制,使世界历史版图发生微妙且持续的变化。本文在关注人口的全球性迁移如何打乱"文化断层线"的同时,指出由于不同族群和宗教的移民对自身文化的坚守,美国社会出现了认同危机;以WASP价值为主体的文化熔炉说受到多元文化主义的冲击,同时,基于族群和宗教认同的人口发展趋势使得美国基督教内部形成显著差异与区隔。

In the era of globalization, population migration makes mankind step into a new round of order reconstruction process. On the one hand, this process makes old order challenged; on the other hand, this process faces difficult obstacles because new order is still slow in coming. All these situations force us to confront the encountering and getting-along issues of civilizations. Whether to solve the conflict problems or to pursue coexistence harmoniously, we need to deepen our understanding of the actual state of world ethnic and cultural issues, to reject isolationism and populism in action, and make the ideal of global ethics and civilization community of the greatest common interests between different cultures become the basis for the reconstruction of the order.
