This volume combines data obtained by a values projective technique
over a period of more than 30 years, data obtained from census
records, and ethnographic data obtained by the authors in fieldwork
in several different places in the USA. Special attention is paid
to schooling as a means of cultural transmission. The concept of
"hinterland" (the great areas of the United States in between the
metropolitan sectors) is developed and contrasted to metropolitan
culture. The purpose of the book is to deal with a process in which
all Americans, old and new, and of all ethnic groups and
minorities, are caught up - the American cultural dialogue. This
dialogue, centering on values such as individuality, freedom,
community, equality and success transcends class and region.
