Abstract:
|
Why do ethnic diasporas in the United States differ in their readiness for political mobilization on behalf of homeland interests? Using three Middle Eastern heritage groups in the United States, this study develops a tiered model of politicized ethnic identity emphasizing both individual-level traits and group/collective properties. Empirical analysis confirms that individuals differ in their readiness for mobilization based on the strength of ties to the ethnic community and, net of such differences, each group varies based on the contexts of exit and reception it faced at the time of immigration. |

| probably find themselves less welcome than white Anglos despite common religious heritage. 11 This argument should not be overstated. Arab Americans are less numerous among Muslims than either South Asians or African Americans and may therefore be minorities in mosques. Some Jews particularly people in mixed marriages and the so-called “Messianic” Jews may attend congregations where they are a religious minority. It’s also true that some Christian confessions such as Greek Orthodox or Latino Protestants remain as ethnically homogenous |
