The Nexus of Homelessness and Incarceration: The Case of Homeless Men in Trenton, NJ
This article explores the nuanced connections between homelessness and incarceration as told through life stories of homeless men in Trenton, New Jersey.

Conducting research among immigrants in the United States can pose ethical problems not encountered by anthropologists working abroad.

This is because foreign anthropologists are not expected to embrace the political rhetoric of societies of which they a…
But they claimed to be police, not la migra: The Interaction of Residency Status, Class, and Ethnicity in a (Post-Patriot Act) New Jersey Neighborhood
In Chambersburg, a neighborhood in Trenton, New Jersey, an ethnic transition is under way. Just several decades ago, the district was a solidly Italian enclave. Today, the few remaining Italians must contend with an influx of new immigrants from Latin America. The transition from Italian to Latino has been infused with conflict that is not immediately obvious but rather lingers just under the surface. Add to this already tense situation the activ…
Crossing the Border: Research from the Mexican Migration Project
Human Agency in International Migration: The Maintenance of Transnational Social Fields by Yucatecan Migrants in a Southwestern City
This essay shows how an ethnographic approach can improve upon the existing literature on transnational migration. Data comes from a community of Yucatecans living in a city in the United States. An analysis of how particular households reacted to changes in U. S. law shows how migrants are influenced by factors besides the economic. Migrants have the power to make their own decisions and neither laws nor the economy can determine the options the…
