Description

For those opposed to immigration, Miami is a nightmare. Miami is the de facto capital of Latin The us; this is a city where immigrants dominate, Spanish is ubiquitous, and Denny’s is an ethnic restaurant. Are Miami’s immigrants representative of a trend that may be undermining American culture and identity?

Drawing from in-depth fieldwork in the city and having a look closely at latest events such as the Elián González case, This Land Is Our Land examines interactions between immigrants and established Americans in Miami to address fundamental questions of American identity and multiculturalism. Fairly than specializing in questions of assimilation, as many other studies have, this book concentrates on interethnic relations to provide an entirely new perspective on the changes wrought by immigration in the USA. A balanced analysis of Miami’s evolution over the past forty years, This Land Is Our Land is also a powerful demonstration that immigration in The us isn’t simply an “us versus them” phenomenon.
