%X the aim of this work is to analyze aspects of the cultural dimension of immigration in conformity with ethnicity. it focuses an exemplary case in the context of european colonization in the brazilian state of santa catarina - "col£¿nia blumenau" - during a historical period distinguished by the institution of the republic (1889), and by the significant expansion of the entry of foreigners in brazil, amidst a world system resulting, among other things, from imperialist expansion. this case shows how forms of circulation of cultural goods, including ideas, values, and ethnic ideologies, have contributed to the construction of some german-brazilian ethnicity, indicating the long duration of transnationalism. the constitution of cultural subsystems in the historical situation where the national republican state was being established shows the difficulties in conciliating nation and cultural diversity resulting from immigration.
