摘要
通过对各族裔家庭年均收入差距形成的原因进行分析,探讨了当今美国社会中流行的“模范少数民族”理论和“文化缺损理论”,并指出了以家庭年均收入水平为标准来衡量各族裔在美国社会中对经济资源的占有是不科学的,这个标准的提出是多数族裔掩盖各族裔在社会经济资源占有上实质上的不平等的体现。它的使用是多数族裔的政治性行为,其目的是为了巩固多数族裔已取得的政治、经济和社会地位。
This article studies statistics of Median Household Income by Race from year 2000 U.S. Census. The author argues that it is unscientific to adopt median household income as the criteria to measure wealth distribution along racial line and the establishment of the criteria speaks of the majority's efforts to mask the r(?)l picture of racial wealth distribution in the U.S. society. The criteria, together with the highly politicized 'Model Minority' notion and 'Cultural Deficiency Theory', represents the majority's purpose of maintaining their established political, economic, and social status quo.
