摘要:

19世纪中后期, 美国纽约城市犯罪问题严重。美国流行的观点是: 移民是犯罪的根源; 国内学者认为移民犯罪率低于土生美国人。本文通过对纽约市移民犯罪事实的分析, 指出城市犯罪的原因和外来移民人口有一定的联系, 但不是根本的原因。纽约移民犯罪问题的辨析不仅关系到如何准确评价移民的历史地位, 而且对于我国外来人口犯罪和管理具有积极的借鉴意义。

关键词: 纽约, 移民, 犯罪

Abstract:

In the mid and late 19th century urban crimes were very serious in New York City of America. It is widely accepted in the United States that immigrants are the source of crimes, while some Chinese scholars hold that the crime rate among immigrants is lower than that among native Americans. This paper argues that immigrants have something to do with the urban crimes but they are not the root of crimes. It is necessary to make an analysis of the nature and causes of crimes. Through analyzing the urban crimes, we can not only make a proper evaluation of the immigrants in the history of America, but also learn some lessons in controlling and dealing with crimes among immigrant labors in big cities in present - day China.

Key words: New York City, immigrant, crime
