A discussion of the hypothesis concerning the relation between housing class & att's towards immigrant racial minorities, originally postulated by John Rex & Robert Moore in RACE, COMMUNITY AND CONFLICT: A STUDY OF SPARKBROOK (London: Oxford U Press, 1967). The hyp's were systematically tested in a sample survey carried out in Bristol, England. The evidence did not support the view that an individual's position in the housing market was a more important determinant of his attitude towards 'colored' immigrants than his psychol'al pre-disposition or subjective orientation to the situation. On the contrary, racism & color prejudice appeared to be much more closely associated with the views that immigration should be restricted, that colored immigrants had made the housing situation worse, & with spontaneous expressions of racial antipathy, than with objective situational factors such as housing.

Historiquement, le Canada est dualiste dans sa langue et son héritage culturel aussi bien que dans la structure de ses institutions. Toutefois, l'immigration a donné lieu à un pluralisme culturel et à d'autres phénomènes de différentiation sociale, de stratification et de redistribution écologique. Des termes comme ceux d'"assimilation" et d'"intégration" ne sont pas appropriés lorsqu'ils s'appliquent au nombre croissant d'immigrants "de passage" qui sont caractéristiques d'une société post-industrielle. L'ajustement social et économique des immigrants d'après-guerre au Canada est étudié à la lumière de ces considérations et des résultats de plusieurs enquêtes.
