Editorial Reviews

Product Description
Relying on ethnographic and statistical data, this volume documents the many constraints and social forces that prevent Mexican-origin adolescents from constructing social networks, and thus social support. The role of social networks in shaping young people's chances is illuminated.

5.0 out of 5 stars Mexican/Latino Adolescents in the U.S.--"An Eloquent Rendering", April 17, 2008
By TC Writer (Los Angeles County, USA) - See all my reviews
"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
