摘要

Samuel P. Huntington, the prescient author of The Clash of Civilizations and the Remaking of the World Order again has challenged readers with another controversial thesis in Who Are We? The Challenges to America's National Identity. The earlier book became a classic debate in international political economy courses until Sept. 11, 2001 when Al Qaeda came down strongly on Hunting-ton's side. A year after the publication of Who Are We?, the debate about Huntington's positions and immigration in general rages on in vitriolic fashion. Huntington's argument is pretty straightforward: There is a core American identity and work ethic shaped by Anglo-Protestantism that underlies American political and economic success; the mass immigration of Hispanic and mainly Mexican peoples into the U.S. is undermining the culture that is a function of Anglo-Protestantism; that the heavy implantation of a second language (Spanish) presents communication difficulties that ultimately will be insurmountable; and that the divisive cultural nature of the polyglot society and the dissipation of the Anglo-Protestant ethic will result in a decline of the U.S.
