摘要

美国南部经历了拉丁裔人口的快速增长;然而,人们对拉丁裔居民如何在公民身份上融入新社区知之甚少。这篇文章探讨了北卡罗来纳州夏洛特-梅克伦堡的拉丁裔是否、在哪里以及为什么参与公民活动。拉丁裔公民参与项目的参与者对1990年至2014年拉丁裔增长率超过1800%的县的拉丁裔居民进行了382项调查。在受访者中,58.5%的人在过去一年中做过志愿者,47.0%的人是信仰或慈善组织的成员。家庭收入、教育程度和英语水平与公民参与度的相关性最强(分别为r=.456、r=.453和r=.464)。参与的主要原因是拉丁裔社区的改善。主要障碍是缺乏信息(37.1%)、时间有限(17.2%)、不感兴趣(7.8%)和文件状态(4.3%)。调查结果可以影响关于拉丁裔参与的对话,包括但不限于投票和政治代表。

Understanding Latinx Civic Engagement in a New Immigrant Gateway
The U.S. South has experienced rapid Latinx growth; yet, little is known about how Latinx residents are civically integrating into new communities. This article explores whether, where, and why Latinx in Charlotte-Mecklenburg, North Carolina, are civically engaged. Participants in a Latino Civic Engagement Project conducted 382 surveys with fellow Latinx residents in a county with Latinx growth rates over 1,800% from 1990 to 2014. Among respondents, 58.5% had volunteered in the past year and 47.0% were members of a faith-based or charitable organization. Household income, educational attainment, and English proficiency were most strongly correlated with civic engagement (r = .456, r = .453, and r = .464, respectively). The main reason for engagement was the betterment of the Latinx community. Main barriers were lack of information (37.1%), limited time (17.2%), disinterest (7.8%), and documentation status (4.3%). Findings can shape conversations about Latinx engagement in ways that include, but go beyond, voting and political representation.
