Research Abstract

The summary of research results is the followings ;
(1) Main research paper, titled "The Archdiocese of Detroit during two World Wars and The Coughlin Question" ;
As assimilation proceeded in the generations after 1890 the Church in Detroit became gradually more uniform in its religious practice and its organizational life. For the process of assimilation was greatly intensified after the First World War, and the last wave of immigrants was Americanized more swiftly than their predecessors had been. The growth of the city's catholic population led in the 1920's to a new political assertiveness among Catholics. But it was only after the First World War that the growing size and wealth of the Catholic population and the easing of ethnic tensions made for-reaching administrative reform a feasible proposition. In this context, Coughlin had become a source of controversy among Catholics long before 1936, and a cause of bitterness and division within the American hierarchy. A principal reason for this was Bishop Michael Gallagher, whose warm support of Coughlin's activities made the job of Coughlin's Catholic critics an exceedingly delicate one. In short, The Coughlin Question is said to illustrate the contradictory of assimilation and dissimilation of Irish Catholics as a Minority in the United States.
