Focusing on the Andes, Central America, and Brazil, the book brings together essays by a number of accomplished scholars. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eMichael Jones-Correa's chapter is a lucid study of the complex issues in posing \"established\" and \"other,\" and \"old\" and \"new\" in the discussion of Latino immigrant groups. Helen B. Marrow follows with general observations that bring out the many facets of race, ethnicity, and identity. Claret Vargas analyzes the poetry of Eduardo Mitre, followed by Edmundo Paz Soldán's reflections on Bolivians' \"obsessive signs of identity.\" Nestor Rodriguez discusses the tensions between Mexican and Central American immigrants, while Arturo Arias's piece on Central Americans moves brilliantly between the literary (and the cinematic), the historical, and the material. Four Brazilian chapters complete the work. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe editors hope that this introductory work will inspire others to continue these initial inquiries so as to construct a more complete understanding of the realities of Latin American migration into the United States.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e José Luis Falconi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 067402589X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780674025899\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e David Rockefeller Center for Latin American S\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/01\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 313\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.94h x 6.22w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/01\/2009","brand":"José Luis Falconi","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44120020680959,"sku":"9780674025899","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c476b349-1d31-4008-b5d2-7fa50895dff1.jpg?v=1687412130","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-other-latinos-jos-luis-falconi-9780674025899","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
