Abstract | We should envision and practice an interdisciplinary study of Germans in North America, exiles and immigrants alike, and try to integrate the various aspects of such a study, historical, literary, cultural, ethnological, religious. The exile immigration poses specific questions in relation to earlier immigration. Which of the problems faced by the exiles were typical for any new immigrants and which were special? The later twentieth century immigration requires an approach that focuses on the unattached individual, including the academic, the professional, the businessperson, who only occasionally joins or supports ethnic groups and who lives in urban areas. |
