symbolic ethnicity
Symbolic ethnicity is a term coined by German-born American sociologist Herbert J. Gans in 1979. He described it as "a nostalgic allegiance... a love for and pride in a tradition that can be felt without having to be incorporated in everyday behavior", often formed by mass media images.〔 According to Mary C. Waters, ethnicity is still an important component of American identity, but it has become "a voluntary, personally chosen identity marker rather than the totally ascribed characteristic" over the years.
The phenomenon is attributed to Americans of European ancestry, most of whom are influenced and/or assimilated into the White Anglo-Saxon Protestant community, which dominated the country's political life since its creation.〔
==Origin==
The term was first used by Herbert J. Gans in the article named ''Symbolic ethnicity: the future of ethnic groups and cultures in America'' published in 1979 in the ''Ethnic and Racial Studies'' journal.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/01419870.1994.9993841#preview )〕
