The Chicano Experience
Latino/a Sociology
Despite the proliferation of significant scholarship on Latinos/as over the past four decades and the formal establishment of a Latina/o sociology section in the American Sociological Association in 1994, Latino/a sociology has yet to be systematically defined or fully developed.

The folkl…
Quien Es El Mas Macho
This study examined whether the ideology of machismo is essentially a class-based structural phenomenon found primarily among poor and uneducated, working-class immigrant Latino men or an endemic cultural trait and value. We compared the responses on the Mirandé Sex Role Inventory (MSRI), a measure of traditional gender roles, of a sample of Day Laborer (DLG), immigrant men (N = 37) who work in the secondary labor market in menial, low-wage jobs …

It is a denial of the equal protection of the laws to the race thus excluded, since the…

Chicano Experience, The
Mirande offers a detailed examination of Chicano social history and culture that includes studies of: Chicano labor and the economy; the Mexican immigrant and the U.S.-Mexico border conflict; the evolution of Chicano criminality; the American educational system and its impact on Chicano culture; the tensions between the institutional Church and Chicanos; and the myths and misconceptions of machismo.
La Chicana
La is the story of a marginal group in society, neither fully Mexican or fully American, who suffer under triple oppression: as women, as members of a colonized culture, and as victims of a cultural heritage dominated by the cult of machismo. Tracing the role of Chicanas from pre-Columbian society to the present, the authors reveal the antecedents and roots of contemporary cultural expectations in Aztec, colonial, and revolutionary Mexican histor…

The Chicano Family
Two conflicting views of the Mexican-American (Chicano) family are examined. The traditional social science view depicts a rigid, male-dominated, authoritarian structure that breeds passivity and dependence. A more sympathetic perspective views the family as warm, nurturing, and supportive, giving the individual a strong sense of security. Although the second view dispels many erroneous negative stereotypes about the family, it generates a positi…

A Reinterpretation of Male Dominance in the Chicano Family
Male dominance in the Chicano family is re-examined and a new conceptualization of the male role is suggested. The traditional view of the Chicano family as patriarchal and authoritarian is erroneous and based on unsupported myths and stereotypes held by both social scientists and the public at large. A review of recent research studies suggests that the dominant pattern of decision-making and actiontaking in the Chicano family is not male-domina…

Familism and Participation in Government Work-Training Programs Among Chicano Aged
The hypothesis that familism has an adverse effect on partici pation in government work-training programs was tested with a sample of 600 elderly (55 and over) Chicano respondents in three communities of varying size in a Southern California coun ty. Results show that respondents were highly familistic, were generally not familiar with government programs, and had a low level of program participation. As hypothesized, those who were most familist…

From Labor Camps to Chicana Feminism
Sociology of Chicanos or Chicano Sociology
This article examines and critically evaluates a recent review in this journal of theoretical trends and themes in sociological writings about Chicanos. In the process it attempts to draw a critical distinction between the sociology of Chicanos and Chicano sociology. A basic thesis advanced is that if the sociology of Chicanos is to grow and develop as a distinct area of study it must eschew majority perspectives and work toward the development o…
