Concept information
Preferred term
panethnic identity
Definition
- The development of panethnic identities is an increasingly important phenomenon in the multicultural and multiethnic context of the United States because it represents a new form of integration into U.S. society that immigration scholars did not predict. In addition, when ethnic group members are able to shift their ethnic identities upward to construct a new broader identity around which to organize collectively and create new institutions and organizations, this can translate into political power and social change.
