Americanization: Principals of Americanism, Essentials of Americanization, Technic of Race-assimilation, Annotated Bibliography - Couverture souple
Présentation de l'éditeur
This volume on Americanism and Americanization is offered as a means for further clarifying our national thought in regard to present vital problems. From the Elder Statesmen and writers of today essential excerpts are quoted briefly. These writings have not been readily accessible to many, and yet they should be known to all of us, native-born and new citizens alike, in order that we may all become better A mericans. The chapters on Americanism and Americanization are a digest of American philosophy in relation to those ideals and principles which inform American life. The chapter on Technic of Race-A ssimilation is a compendium of practice, giving the details of assimilation-methods in education, industry, politics, and everyday living. The annotated Bibliography is a helpful selected list of books on Americanism and A mericanization. The titles relating to Race-assimilation include all the available periodical references since 1900. The whole volume constitutes a reference book of unique value to everyone who believes in America as a world force for civilization and democracy as opposed to exploitation and autocracy. EXPLANATORY NOTE TO THE SECOND EDITION With this new edition of Americanization the bibliography on the subject is brought down to date. The many articles that have appeared since the last issue, amply attest the live and earnest interest that continues to be taken in the subject, an interest much augmented by the effect on the country of the late war and the present problems of industrial strife and unrest, inextricably intertwined in many ways with the problem of the unassimilated and the newcomer to our shores.
