A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Latinos in the New Millennium is a comprehensive profile of Latinos in the United States: looking at their social characteristics, group relations, policy positions and political orientations. The authors draw on information from the 2006 Latino National Survey (LNS), the largest and most detailed source of data on Hispanics in America. This book provides essential knowledge about Latinos, contextualizing research data by structuring discussion around many dimensions of Latino political life in the US. The encyclopedic range and depth of the LNS allows the authors to appraise Latinos' group characteristics, attitudes, behaviors and their views on numerous topics. This study displays the complexity of Latinos, from recent immigrants to those whose grandparents were born in the United States.

Revue de presse :

"With politics and political involvement as the unifying element, the authors have assembled a study where charts and graphs are accompanied by explanatory text the offers students, researchers, politicians, the media, and community organizations a timely and nuanced portrait of the country's Latino population. Summing Up: Highly recommended" - J.H. Pollitz, University of Wisconsin--Eau Claire, CHOICE Magazine
