Book Americanizing the West

Download or read book Americanizing the West written by Frank Van Nuys and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The arrival of immigrants on America's shores has always posed a singular problem: once they are here, how are these diverse peoples to be transformed into Americans? The Americanization movement of the 1910s and 1920s addressed this challenge by seeking to train immigrants for citizenship, representing a key element of the Progressives' "search for order" in a modernizing America. Frank Van Nuys examines for the first time how this movement, in an effort to help integrate an unruly West into the emerging national system, was forced to reconcile the myth of rugged individualism with the demands of a planned society. In an era convulsed by world war and socialist revolution, the Americanization movement was especially concerned about the susceptibility of immigrants to un-American propaganda and union agitation. As Van Nuys convincingly demonstrates, this applied as much to immigrants in the urbanizing and industrializing West as it did to those occupying the ethnic enclaves of cities in the East. In Americanizing the West he tells how hundreds of bureaucrats, educators, employers, and reformers participated in this movement by developing adult immigrant education programs-and how these attempts contributed more toward bureaucratizing the West than it did to turning immigrants into productive citizens. He deftly ties this history to broader national developments and shows how Westerners brought distinctive approaches to Americanization to accommodate and preserve their own sense of history and identity. Van Nuys shows that, although racism and social control agendas permeated Americanization efforts in the West, Americanizers sustained their faith in education as a powerful force in transforming immigrants into productive citizens. He also shows how some westerners-especially in California-believed they faced a "racial frontier" unlike other parts of the country in light of the influx of Hispanics and Asians, so that westerners became major players in the crafting of not only American identity but also immigration policies. The mystique of the white pioneer past still maintains a powerful hold on ideas of American identity, and we still deal with many of these issues through laws and propositions targeting immigrants and alien workers. Americanizing the West makes a clear case for regional distinctiveness in this citizenship program and puts current headlines in perspective by showing how it helped make the West what it is today.

Book Americanization in the United States  Bulletin  1923

Download or read book Americanization in the United States Bulletin 1923 written by John J. Mahoney and published by . This book was released on 1923 with total page 45 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 1915, when the Americanization "movement" came into being, the American people have joined dozens of Americanization societies, listened to hundreds of people who declaimed Americanization, and read thousands of dissertations, wise and otherwise, on the same theme. For several years past, Americanization movements have been promoted both genuine and spurious, with equal zeal. It has been a period of much idle talk, much earned endeavor, and some accomplishment, especially within the past two years. This report, deals specifically with the past two years. It seems to be a hopeless prospect to attempt the reporting of what has been done across the country in the broad field of Americanization during the past two years. Happily, the scope of this report is to relate advances, that have been made in the schooling of the foreign born. Contents include: (1) Definitions and preliminary considerations; (2) A few fundamental principles and policies; and (3) What some of the States have done. Appended are: (1) The Plymouth agreement; (2) Americanization law--Massachusetts; (3) Americanization law--Ohio; (4) The California statute (1913); and (5) A few significant statistics.
