摘要
文化标准,如语言技能和价值观,是民族主义话语的显著特征,反映了在思考国家问题时将内群体成员与外群体成员区分开来的想象边界。尽管文化成员标准非常突出,但它们与其他公民(可实现的)或种族(描述性的)国家边界之间的关系,以及它们对群体间关系的影响却存在争议。通过对加拿大魁北克省 N = 6448 名多数群体成员的调查,我们认为文化界限在经验上有别于公民和种族界限。文化和公民标准都是加入魁北克民族社区的重要先决条件,但文化标准与外群体态度的关系明显不同。研究结果强调了将文化界限概念化为一套独特的民族成员资格标准的重要性,并质疑了混合民族文化界限测量方法或将公民和文化标准合并为同样 "可达到的 "民族成员资格标志的方法的建构有效性。
Minority Affirmations and the Boundaries of the Nation: Evidence From Québec
Cultural criteria, like language skills and values, are salient features of nationalism discourse, reflecting imagined boundaries that separate ingroup from outgroup member when thinking about the nation. Despite their salience, the relationship between cultural membership criteria and other civic (attainable) or ethnic (ascriptive) national boundaries, along with their implications for intergroup relations, is contested. Using surveys from N = 6448 majority group members in the Canadian province of Québec, we argue cultural boundaries are empirically distinct from civic and ethnic ones. Cultural and civic criteria are both prominent prerequisites for membership into the Québécois national community, but cultural criteria show markedly divergent relationships with outgroup attitudes. The results underline the importance of conceptualizing cultural boundaries as a distinct set of national membership criteria and question the construct validity of blended ethnocultural boundary measures or approaches that aggregate civic and cultural criteria together as equally “attainable” markers of national membership.
