摘要
印度裔族群是美国新近兴起的一个少数族裔群体,它的最终形成经历了曲折的发展过程。印度国内发展的长期滞缓、美国外来移民政策的重大调整,以及祖籍国强烈的文化认同和情感联系,使该族群具备了内部构成鲜明的精英特性、族裔人口急速增长、族群总体上团结和睦、坚守传统文化传承等显著特点,从而为其在美国的快速发展和顺利融入主流社会奠定了坚实的基础,并扩大了族裔力量和影响。
Indian Diaspora is a newly-rising ethnical group in America.The development of this group has gone through a long and difficult historic process before its final formation and has been mainly connected with the'push'and'pull'factors of India and America.However,it was the long-term slow development of India,the significant modification of Americas immigration policies,and the strong cultural identification and immigrantsattachment to their motherland that helped the Indian group obtain some special characteristics,such as the obvious elite nature of its internal composition,the rapid growth of its ethnical population,the holistic ethnic unity and the perfect preservation and transmission of its traditional culture.Such characteristics not only greatly distinguish the group from other American ethnical groups,but also lay a solid foundation for its fast development in America and its smooth assimilation into the mainstream society,and as a result,directly help it get stronger and more influential.
