"Melting Pot vs Ethnic Stew"

While many immigrants arriving each day to different countries of yours, always present their habits, so come to form new colonies or at home in those already formed, sometimes these people believe so strong that companies may affect the values of dominant culture or in other cases in the U.S. as you can get to the "creation of a new breed," because people tend to Americanize becoming like them and tend to completely change the concept of making Crisol only see dominant culture, ignoring the learning of other cultures.

Summary “Melting Pot vs. Ethnic Stew”

“melting pot" is the concept of societies by immigrants, ethnic groups and others, who made up new mixed societies. The concept of “the ethnic stew” is similar of the melting pot, but the cultural distinction is stronger in melting pot.
In 1782 J. Hector de Crevecoeur French settler, envisioned that the United States is not only a place of opportunity because also is a society where people of other nations can build a new race.
The nation received immigrants from Europe with the idea that United States would be for the white people the "melting pot" of the world, this idea was given by Frederick Turner Jacson (1893).
Louis Adamic (novelist) in 1900 wrote of " failure of melting pot " in which criticized the concept as an ideal and racist to exclude non-European immigrants, Eastern and Southern Europeans.
The more just concept of " melting pot " should not be only by “cultures” but also entail mixing of various “races”.

The melting pot is a term for the way in which original societies become more homogeneous, in which "the ingredients in the pot" (people of different cultures, races and religions) are combined so as to develop a multi-ethnic society. The term, which originates from the United States, is often used to describe societies experiencing large scale immigration from many different countries, like in the way of america, this country have been the most populous by other diferent cultures, there are many immigrants that come from all over the world. tatiana

Some countries have traditionally been referred to as a "melting pot," welcoming people from many different countries, races, and religions, all hoping to find freedom, new opportunities, and a better way of life.
immigrants for many years have been bringing their own cultures and traditions to a vast new country. No other place in the world has such a diverse population as the united states. ana maria

MELTING POT VS ETHNIC STEW

Refers to the idea that societies formed by several ethnic groups, cultures, religions and will make new cultural and social forms different to the dominant group and increased level of mixed race and cultures. Many proponents of the “melting pot” are inspired by the English movement with emphasis on Western heritage and pluralism, accommodation and policies. This theory of melting pot has been criticised as racist and unrealistic because excluded non-European immigrants

The concept of ethnic stew said that different groups keep their differences, while maintaining relations among each other.

MELTING POT VS ETHNIC STEW.
The term melting pot refers to the idea that societies formed by immigrant cultures, religions, end ethnic groups, will produce new hyb In comparison with assimilation, it implies the ability of new or subordinate groups to affect the values of the dominant group. Sometimes it is referred to as amalgamation, in the opposition to both assimilation and pluralism.
Although the term melting pot may be applied to many countries in the world, such as Brazil, Bangladesh or even France, mostly referring to increased level of mixed race and culture, it is predominantly used with reference to USA and creation of the American nation.
The theory of melting pot has been criticised both as unrealistic and racist, because it focused on the Western heritage and excluded non-European immigrants. Also, despite its proclaimed “melting” character its results have been assimilationist.
The history of the melting pot theory can be traced back to 1782 when J. Hector de Crevecoeur, a French settler in New York, envisioned the United States not only as land of opportunity but as a society where individuals of all nations are melted into a new race.
. A major influx of immigrants occurred mainly after the 1830s, when large numbers of British, Irish, and Germans began entering, to be joined after the Civil War by streams of Scandinavians and then groups from eastern and southern Europe as well as small numbers from the Middle East, China, and Japan.
One of the early critiques of the melting pot idea was Louis Adamic, novelist and journalist who wrote about the experience of American immigrants in the early 1900s and about what he called the failure of the American melting pot in Laughing in the Jungle (1932).
A theory of the triple melting pot arguing that intermarriage was occurring between various nationalities but only within the three major religious groupings: Protestant, Catholic, and Jewish. Milton Gordon and Henry Pratt Fairchild proposed the assimilation theory as an alternative to the melting pot one (Parrillo, 1997).
Many multicultural initiatives aiming at integration/ inclusion of minorities, while following the melting pot ideal, often result in assimilationist and racist outcomes.
In the case of the melting pot the aim is that all cultures become reflected in one common culture, however this is generally the culture of the dominant group. Hopefully the solution may be offered by the concept of the ethnic stew where all the ingredients are mixed in a sort of pan-Hungarian goulash where the pieces of different kinds of meat still keep their solid structure.
