Description
The fifth edition of this widely-used textbook introduces students to what it means to be a Latino American culturally and politically at a time of unprecedented challenges for America's diverse and fastest-growing ethnic group. Garcia and Sanchez provide an in-depth examination of the individual communities that comprise the Latino culture, and how those bonds affect political development and decisions. With a look at voting, immigration, political engagement, and the critical public policies that constitute a Latino agenda, Garcia and Sanchez provide substantive insight on Latino pan-ethnic identity, growing policy issues, political participation, and the impact of changing Latino sub-groups.
This engaging text features:
· Discussion questions encourage students to critically engage with key concepts and themes
· Links to suggested readings get students engaged in other sources
· Accessible figures throughout the text engage visual learners
· A glossary of key terms is an effective study aid
