Puerto Rico: What Everyone Needs to Know(r)
ISBN: 9780190648701 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Acquired by the United States from Spain in 1898, Puerto Rico has a peculiar status among Latin American and Caribbean countries. As a Commonwealth, the island enjoys limited autonomy over local matters, but the U.S. has dominated it militarily, politically, and economically for much of its recent history. Though they are U.S. citizens, Puerto Ricans do not have their own voting representatives in Congress and cannot vote in presidential elections (although they are able to participate in the primaries). The island's status is a topic of perennial debate, both within and beyond its shores. In...

Blurred Borders: Transnational Migration Between the Hispanic Caribbean and the United States
ISBN: 9780807872031 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In this comprehensive comparative study, Jorge Duany explores how migrants to the United States from Cuba, the Dominican Republic, and Puerto Rico maintain multiple ties to their countries of origin.
Chronicling these diasporas from the end of World War II to the present, Duany argues that each sending country's relationship to the United States shapes the transnational experience for each migrant group, from legal status and migratory patterns to work activities and the connections migrants retain with their home countries. Blending extensive ethnographic, archival, and survey...

Puerto Rican Nation on the Move
ISBN: 9780807853726 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Puerto Ricans maintain a vibrant identity that bridges two very different places--the island of Puerto Rico and the U.S. mainland. Whether they live on the island, in the States, or divide time between the two, most imagine Puerto Rico as a separate nation and view themselves primarily as Puerto Rican. At the same time, Puerto Ricans have been U.S. citizens since 1917, and Puerto Rico has been a U.S. commonwealth since 1952.
Jorge Duany uses previously untapped primary sources to bring new insights to questions of Puerto Rican identity, nationalism, and migration. Drawing a...

How the United States Racializes Latinos: White Hegemony and Its Consequences
ISBN: 9781594515989 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Mexican and Central American undocumented immigrants, as well as U.S. citizens such as Puerto Ricans and Mexican-Americans, have become a significant portion of the U.S. population. Yet the U.S. government, mainstream society, and radical activists characterize this rich diversity of peoples and cultures as one group alternatively called "Hispanics," "Latinos," or even the pejorative "Illegals." How has this racializing of populations engendered governmental policies, police profiling, economic exploitation, and even violence that afflict these groups? From a variety of settings-New York, New...

Caribbean Migrations: The Legacies of Colonialism
ISBN: 9781978814493 / Angielski / Miękka / 2020 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. 2021 Choice Outstanding Academic Title With mass migration changing the configuration of societies worldwide, we can look to the Caribbean to reflect on the long-standing, entangled relations between countries and areas as uneven in size and influence as the United States, Cuba, Hispaniola, Puerto Rico, and Jamaica. More so than other world regions, the Caribbean has been characterized as an always already colonial region. It has long been a key area for empires warring over influence spheres in the new world, and where migration waves from Africa, Europe, and Asia accompanied every...
