The Polish Peasant in Europe and America, Monograph of an Immigrant Group, Vol. 5: Organization and Disorganization in America (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Excerpt from The Polish Peasant in Europe and America, Monograph of an Immigrant Group
The preceding parts of this work, though far from exhaustive, give a general outline of the psychol ogy and organization of the peasant communities in Poland and of the evolution by which these communi ties, formerly almost isolated, became integral parts of the Polish national body. We have found that, except for the higher forms of cultural productivity (litera ture, art, science, large-scale industry and commerce) in which the peasant class did not appreciably partici pate and for the maintenance and development of a state system, of which Poland was deprived, our study has involved nearly all the sociological problems which can be raised with reference to a concrete, ethnically homogeneous society which has occupied a certain ter ritory for many generations and come into the pos session of a set of social values either originally pro duced or completely assimilated during its historical ex istence.

The Polish Peasant in Europe and America, Monograph of an Immigrant Group, Vol
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the complex realities of Polish emigration to America in the early 20th century, analyzing the social and psychological forces at play. The author examines the phenomenon of emigration from the perspective of both the individual and the Polish community, exploring the motivations, expectations, and cultural clashes that accompanied the journey across the ocean. The book challenges the simplistic notion of individual assimilation, arguing that Polish immigrants formed a distinct "Polish-American society" with its own evolving culture, institutions, and dynamics. This society, caught between the traditions of its homeland and the realities of its new environment, is portrayed as a unique cultural entity that reflects the larger processes of social change and cultural adaptation in the modern world. Through vivid narratives and insightful analysis, the book reveals the profound impact of emigration on both the individual and the community, offering a nuanced understanding of the complexities of cultural identity and social transformation in a rapidly changing world. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781330367025_0
