The interface between ethnic and national attachment: ethnic pluralism or ethnic dominance?

Article Abstract:

The interface between ethnic identity and the two dimensions of national attachment, namely, patriotism and nationalism, was analyzed using the data from the US and Israel.

These findings posit that interface varies considerably with the type of ethnic group and dimension of national identity being examined.
