Mexican/Latino Adolescents in the U.S.--"An Eloquent Rendering",
By TC Writer (Los Angeles County, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Manufacturing Hope and Despair : The School and Kin Support Networks of U.S.-Mexican Youth (Sociology of Education Series, No. 9) (Paperback)
"A beautifully written and inspiring book that announces a new generation of Mexican/Latino scholars.... This is a book which tells the tale about Mexican/Latino adolescents but, in reality, it is a book about how working-class adolescent life is socially constructed, defined, and elaborated in the United States. An eloquent rendering, indeed."
--Carlos G. Vélez-Ibáñez, Presidential Chair in Anthropology, University of California, Riverside
