商品簡介
A collection of 12 essays reprinted from scholarly journals diagraming the historical, political, cultural, and contemporary concerns of Mexican-Americans. The papers bring sense and sensibility to the arguments surrounding illegal immigration by focusing on the historical precedents of Mexican contract laborers, the border as symbol and reality in Mexican-American culture, the meaning of being a "noncitizen", the ways in which the Mexican and American cultures have influenced each other, and the new global economy in relation to US immigration policies, trade agreements, and social attitudes. Lacks an index. Paper edition (unseen), $16.95. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
