"Explores migration between the US and Mexico and focuses on the differences among adolescent groups. The authors analyze four populations (native Mexican, native North Americans, first generation Latino immigrants, and second generation immigrants) and begin to unravel the difficult issues of cultural differences, social identity, family structure, and personal reasons for migrating"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.http://www.loc.gov/hlas/

Paperback. Etat : Very Good. In virtually all advanced industrialised countries, the explosive topic of immigration has engendered heated argument, political anger, cultural anxieties, and blatant racism. In the United States, most of the attention is on the stream of Mexicans crossing the border in such numbers that early in the next century Latinos are expected to surpass African Americans as the largest minority group. This book focuses on key aspects of the problem, including the puzzling differences between Mexico-born adolescents and adolescents born in the United States. Whereas Mexico-born adolescents are highly motivated to learn English and use the educational system to improve their lot, US-born adolescents seem angry, frustrated, and less interested in academic achievement. In a psychological and cultural study of four groups of adolescents this study seeks to account for this difference. N° de réf. du vendeur 00081907561
