Increases in ethnic and racial intermarriage in immigrant countries have led to growing proportions of persons of mixed ancestry and backgrounds. The marriage patterns of these persons both reflect and affect the salience and meaning of current forms of ethnicity and race in these societies. This article analyzes the marriage behavior of children of ethnically mixed unions in the Jewish population of Israel. Among persons of mixed ancestry, educational attainment plays a large role in whether they marry Ashkenazim or less economically advantaged Mizrahim. Such patterns suggest that intermarriage in Israel does not necessarily reduce ethnic differences in socioeconomic status or the salience of ethnicity among disadvantaged groups.
移民国家中族裔和种族间通婚的增加，导致了混血和具有不同背景的人口比例不断上升。这些人的婚姻模式既反映又影响着这些社会中当前种族和族裔形式的显著性和意义。本文分析了以色列犹太人群体中异族通婚家庭子女的婚姻行为。在混血人群中，受教育程度在他们是否与阿什肯纳兹人或经济上较弱势的米兹拉希人结婚方面起着很大作用。这种模式表明，以色列的异族通婚不一定会缩小社会经济地位方面的族裔差异，也不一定会降低弱势群体中族裔的显著性。
