Gentrification, Displacement, and Alternative Futures
Latino Urbanism: The Politics of Planning, Policy and Redevelopment
The nation's Latina/o population has now reached over 50 million, or 15 percent of the estimated total U.S. population of 300 million, and a growing portion of the world's population now lives and works in cities that are increasingly diverse. This book provides the first national perspective on Latina/o urban policy, addressing a wide range of planning policy issues that impact both Latinas/os in the United States, as well as the nation as a who…

Other Than Mexicans”, “Islamic Fascists” and the transatlantic regulation of risky subjects
Post-9/11 significations of “immigration threat” link the policing of the US–Mexico border to the “war on terror” geopolitically such that domestic policies and practices related to the regulation of “undocumented” Latino migrants shape and are shaped by extra-domestic considerations related to the signification of Arab and Muslim communities. In broadening migration analysis, to include a geopolitical dimension, we are able to draw out the chang…
Latina/o formations in the United States: Laboring classes, migration, and identities
The last four decades have marked an epochal socio-economic transformation in the nature of US society. Nowhere is this more obvious than the precipitous growth of US-born Latino and Mexican/Latino immigrant populations. According to the US census, the previous decade (2000–2010) alone accounted for a 43% increase, with the majority residing in states like California, Illinois, Florida, and New York. However, more recently, new Latino (primarily …
New American Destinies: A Reader in Contemporary Asian and Latino Immigration
The essays gathered here discuss theoretical and policy issues and themes such as the political and economic context of migration, job competition, labor organizing, changing ethnic and "race" relations, immigrant women in the economy and contemporary immigration politics and contribute to our understanding of the historical and contemporary dimensions of Asian and Latino migration in a changing global economy
The Allure of Race: From New Lefts to New Times
This article examines conceptual obstacles to emancipation which have emerged historically within Left theory on both sides of the Atlantic, concerned primarily with “class versus race” debates spanning from the post-war Hegelian moment to the post-structural present. While the “cultural turn” promised to give voice against structuralist silencing, the critical subject of emancipation has been defaced, eradicated such that we currently have no th…

Mapping Latino Studies: Critical Reflections on Class and Social Theory
Latino Metropolis
Los Angeles has often been considered a postmodern city due to its ethnic, racial, and national mixtures and its leadership in the globalized market on the Pacific Rim. At the same time, the Blade Runner (1982) image of Los Angeles as a chaotic mixture of voices and cultures seems to defy understanding. These popular images reflect a paradoxical reality that Victor M. Valle and Rodolfo D. Torres seek to demonstrate in analyzing the Lati-noization…
