INTRODUCTION
The study of inter-ethnicrelations deals with a very
general problem in sociology: the formation,
stabilization and change of social relations. The
problem has a well-known feature: social relations
are subject to a 'double contingency', such that
those involved in the relations are at one and the
same time both actors and the object of action,
bearers and objects of orientationsand evaluations,
users of means and themselves means for others,
interpreters of symbols and symbols themselves
(Parsons, 1968: 436; Parsons and Shils, 1962: 14f;
Weber, 1972: 11ff; Simmel, 1908). This double
contingency is not just limited to the relationship
which may exist at any particular time. Rather,
any particular social relationship must be seen as
being embedded in a more or less extensive and
complex framework of relationships, themselves
more or less closely interdependentin such a way
as to hinder, or aid, the inception of other, new
relationships.
In its use as a general hypothesis to guide
research, the concept of the double contingency is
entirely uncontroversial, though the terminology
used is very diverse. However, the approaches to
explanation are more subject to dispute. Can
'sociological' laws sui generis be found for the
formation, stabilization and change of social

macro-structures can be identified. One macrostructural aspect is the existence both of potential
interaction partners belonging to the actor's own
ethnic group and of potential interaction partners
belonging to the other ethnic group. The other
aspect is the (collectively similar) behaviour of
interaction partners of members of each of these
groups. Thus it is clear that in the theoretical
approach adopted here, 'macro-structures' are
always only understood as the presence of and the
behaviourof other acting individuals.
The importance of personality attributes, i.e. of
individual dispositions and abilities, for social
distance and ethnic segmentation has been
suspected, and indeed empirically demonstrated
many times. Of approaches to the explanation of
the formation and social diffusion of 'prejudices'
and 'ethnocentrism',the 'authoritarianpersonality'
approach (and others inspired by this) deserve
particular mention. In the case of explanations of
ethnic segmentation, there is the additional
hypothesis of an influence by 'individual' assimilation variables such as age on immigration,length
of stay or an individual's abilities and knowledge.
In the case of social distance, the rejecting
disposition forms as a reaction to a situation in
which need-fulfillment is continually blocked
('frustration'), in which the ensuing frustration
cannot be overcome through the actor's own
action and which results in the actor projectinghis
suppressed wishes into ethnocentric everyday
theories-which of course have a social origin (cf.
the summary of this approach, followed by Adorno
et al., 1950 and Dollard et al., 1939, in Williams
1964: 84f). In the explanation of ethnic
segmentation,it is assumed that a change in ethnic
identification (as a change in the 'cathexis' of
characteristics of both origin and host cultures)
occurs only after a cognitive, but in particular a
language assimilation has taken place and that this
change is linked to the experience of a successful
mastering of everyday problems by assimilative
behaviour (Richardson, 1967/68). This makes the
finding that both prejudices and ethnic segmentation covary negatively with education and
socioeconomic status comprehensible(Christie and
Cook, 1956; Harding et al., 1969: 28f; Esser,
1982).
Both the theory of the authoritarianpersonality
and the 'individualistic' explanation of ethnic

religious identification, contacts on ethnic identification) is little changed after the introduction of
the 'primarymilieu'variables.
Thus Williams' early results (1964: 89ff), which
he used to reject purely 'individualistically'
formulatedtheories of inter-ethnicrelations, can be
given clear confirmation. Both social distance and
ethnic segmentation result only to a small extent
from the dispositions held by an individual. They
are rather the consequence of subcultural,
normative milieux, in which particularimages and
patterns of action maintain themselves through
reciprocal confirmation and social control even
when they run contrary to individual experiences
and dispositions. 'Distance' and 'prejudice'are, like
'ethnic identity', simply taken for granted in
everyday life and thus neitherthe result of deviance
nor of any kind of'pathology'.
The question to be answered now is whether
macro-structuralfactors in the environment are of
any importance alongside the influences shown to
exist at individual and milieu level. The characteristics of the macro-structural surroundings con-

sidered are the mere existence (ethnic concentration) of the other group in a territory, and the
behaviour of the actor's own and the other group.
For statistical reasons, not all the possible
operationalized context variables can be introduced into the model simultaneously. Context
chacteristics at the same level of aggregation
usually exhibit such a high level of multicollinearity
that the statistical separation of specific effects is
rendered impossible (Boyd and Iversen, 1979:
63ff). The variables here are no exception. The
reduction of the set of possible context variables to
a number amenable to statistical analysis was
guided by the consideration that the homoethnic
macro-milieuxand the visibility of the behaviourof
the other ethnic group, as features of the
macro-structure, manifest themselves more at
quarter level than at district level. Thus, for both
these context variables, only one level of
aggregation (the quarter) was used in the
estimation of coefficients. However, the effect of
ethnic concentration is investigated both for
quarters and districts. This is possible because the

discriminationin both cases favours the membership of rejecting primary milieux and of ones
orientatedto the ethnic culture.
When all the specific effects of the macro-structural variables are looked at together, then their
effects on inter-ethnicrelations can be traced back
to two different cases of natives and immigrants.
For the German majority there is almost no
macro-structural effect on inter-ethnic contacts,
rejection and distance. However, for the immigrants, it is the merepresence of Germansorfellow
countrymen in house or quarter which determines
the extent of their inter-ethnic contacts and their
religious and ethnic segmentation. Thus the
tendency found already in the analysis of
individual-level variables is further strengthened,
i.e. the readiness of foreigners to take up
inter-ethnic relations is more a question of their
learned cognitive abilities and of the opportunity
structure of their residentialenvironment,whereas
for the natives individualemotions and dispositions
and the normative milieu in their residential
environment play a much greater role. Or,
extremely briefly, inter-ethnic relations are evidently a question of opportunity for the Turks,
whereas for the Germans they are more a question
of emotions and normativecontrol.
