Herbert Gans characterized a “bumpy-line” approach to this process, in contrast to a pre-1990s “straight-line” approach. (-5[1])Alejandro Portes and Min Zhou developed a “segmented” theory of this process, which introduced the idea that it can be selective and racialized. It’s not mobility, but in the “downward” type of this process, children may attain a lower socioeconomic status than their parents; socioeconomic (15[1])status, spatial concentration, and (*) intermarriage are three of the four criteria (-5[1])for (-5[1])measuring this process. (-5[3])A play by Israel (-5[1])Zangwill (10[2])originated (-5[1])a metaphor (-5[1])for (10[1])the results of this process, (10[5]-5[1])which are often contrasted (10[1])with the “salad bowl” (-5[1])created (-5[1])by pluralism. (10[4]-5[1])For 10 points, (10[2]-5[1])identify (10[2])this process (10[1])by which a minority (10[2])group (10[1])adopts (10[1])the (10[2])culture (10[1])of the (10[1])majority.
