History

The nativists believed that immigrants would destroy America. So, option (b) can be considered as the suitable option.

<h3>Why do nativists oppose immigration?</h3>

Joel S. Fetzer claims that conflicts over national, cultural, and religious identity frequently lead to hostility to immigration in many nations. Particularly in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, and the United States, as well as in continental Europe, the phenomenon has been examined. As a result, the term "nativism" has evolved to refer broadly to opposition to immigration motivated by worries that newcomers may "distort or corrupt" preexisting cultural norms. Nativist movements try to stop cultural change when immigrants outnumber native-born people by a wide margin.

Many of the following arguments against immigrants are used to support immigration restrictionist sentiment :

Economic :

  • Employment : Immigrants take occupations that would have been open to native citizens otherwise, which reduces native employment. They also produce a labor surplus, which drives down wages.
  • Immigrants incur a cost to the government since they do not pay enough taxes to pay for the services they need.
  • Social welfare systems are heavily utilized by immigrants.
  • Housing : As vacancies are reduced by immigrants, rents rise.

Cultural

  • Language : Immigrants refuse to pick up the native tongue and withdraw into their own communities.
  • Culture : As immigrants outnumber the local populace, their culture will take its place.
  • Crime : Compared to the native population, immigrants are more likely to commit crimes.
  • Patriotism : Immigrants erode a country's feeling of ethnic and national identity.

An ancient philosopher once said: "Man is the measure of all things." The statement points to the idea that man is at the center
MAVERICK [17]

This phrase is attributed to Protagoras, a pre-Socratic Greek philosopher. Although the phase is open to interpretation, one of its possible meanings is the fact that humans are at the center of all existence. Moreover, human perception is the standard of objectivity by which everything else is measured. Therefore, this phrase implies that there is no "force" or "being" outside of humans that can provide us with answers to the questions of existence.

This view is closer to that of Greek religion than to that of Hebrew religion, Judaism. Judaism believes in an <em>objetive</em> truth and <em>objective</em> moral rules, contained in the Torah. Moreover, Jews believe that there is one single God, which is omnipotent and all-knowing, and therefore truth emanates from him and not from men.

On the other hand, Greek religion contains many different gods, all of which are imperfect. This suggests that the behaviour or "teachings" of the gods cannot provide us with an objective truth. Humans need to create their own moral codes and their own assumptions about the world in order to establish their societies. Moreover, gods participate very little in human life and when they do they often create chaos or are defeated, suggesting that gods are fallible and cannot control the whole world. These assumptions mean that Greeks believe humans are significantly autonomous and independent from gods, allowing them to believe that they are at the center of all knowledge and experience.
