Abstract
In their book, Glazer and Moynihan analyze the life of the very largest ethnic groups comprising the population of New York today. Analysis of the social and ethnic life of a capitalist metropolis is of great interest for the ethnographic and sociological study of urban populations in general, although New York cannot be regarded as either an average or even a typical city. It is, rather, that extreme case in which general laws are most vividly manifested. Suffice it to say that nearly one-half the population of New York, according to the census of 1960, comprises emigrants from various countries, chiefly European, plus their children, while 8% are Puerto Ricans and 14% are Negroes.
