Imigração e relações raciais na cidade moderna: a teoria social de Louis Wirth

Abstract in Portuguese
Esta dissertação tem como objetivo principal a reconstrução conceitual e teórica dos estudos de imigração de Louis Wirth, sociólogo de origem alemã, naturalizado norte-americano, associado à tradição da Escola Sociológica de Chicago. A análise centrou-se em seus escritos de formação: Culture Conflict in the Immigrante Family (1925), sua dissertação de mestrado, e The Ghetto (1928), a publicação de sua tese de doutorado, complementados por alguns artigos. Os principais elementos reconstruídos foram, não necessariamente nessa ordem: a condição do imigrante de desorganização e reorganização pessoal e de grupo; a teoria da assimilação; os conflitos culturais e a delinquência entre a segunda geração de imigrantes; a psicologia social do imigrante e seus tipos sociais e de personalidade; a possibilidade de aplicação do conhecimento sociológico para intervenção na realidade social; e, o conceito de gueto, na interpretação do isolamento espacial, cultural e social. Esses elementos foram analisados não apenas nas formulações do autor, mas também pelas influências que sofreu de William I. Thomas, Robert E. Park e Ernest W. Burgess. Quanto ao conceito de gueto, especificamente, foi realizado também o exame de sua incorporação na sociologia e nos estudos raciais norte-americanos, posteriores ao autor, na reavaliação e crítica elaborada por Loïc Wacquant.

Abstract in English
This thesis has as main purpose the conceptual and theoretical reconstruction of the studies of immigration from Louis Wirth, sociologist of German origin, naturalized American, associated with the tradition of the Chicago School of Sociology. The analysis focused on the author's formation writings: Culture Conflict in the Immigrant Familiy (1925), his master thesis, and The Ghetto (1928), the publication of his doctoral thesis, supplemented by some articles. The main reconstructed elements were, not necessarily in this order: the immigrant condition of individual and group disorganization and reorganization; the assimilation theory; cultural conflicts and delinquency in the second generation of immigrants; the social psychology of the immigrant and its social and personality types; the possibility of applying sociological knowledge to change social reality; and the concept of ghetto for the interpretation of spatial, cultural and social isolation. These elements were analyzed not only in the author's formulations but also in the influences that he had suffered from William I. Thomas, Robert E. Park and Ernest W. Burgess. Regarding the concept of ghetto, specifically, it was also examined its development in American sociology and racial studies, later to the author, in the review and critique elaborated by Loïc Wacquant.
