Reviews
Passionately examines the painful transformation of Lawrence, Massachusetts, from a declining post-WW II industrial city into a majority Latino city with its own distinctive identity and challenges in the 21st century. Recommended.-- CHOICE, Sociologists and historians will find that Barber's complex approach opens new discussions on imperial migrants and urban crisis as it relates to US imperialism and racial tensions.

Synopsis
Latino City explores the transformation of Lawrence, Massachusetts, into New England's first Latino-majority city. Like many industrial cities, Lawrence entered a downward economic spiral in the decades after World War II due to deindustrialization and suburbanization. The arrival of tens of thousands of Puerto Ricans and Dominicans in the late twentieth century brought new life to the struggling city, but settling in Lawrence was fraught with challenges. Facing hostility from their neighbors, exclusion from local governance, inadequate city services, and limited job prospects, Latinos fought and organized for the right to make a home in the city. In this book, Llana Barber interweaves the histories of urban crisis in U.S. cities and imperial migration from Latin America. Pushed to migrate by political and economic circumstances shaped by the long history of U.S. intervention in Latin America, poor and working-class Latinos then had to reckon with the segregation, joblessness, disinvestment, and profound stigma that plagued U.S. cities during the crisis era, particularly in the Rust Belt. For many Puerto Ricans and Dominicans, there was no American Dream awaiting them in Lawrence; instead, Latinos struggled to build lives for themselves in the ruins of industrial America., Latino City explores the transformation of Lawrence, Massachusetts, into New England's first Latino-majority city.

In this book, Llana Barber interweaves the histories of US urban crisis and imperial migration from Latin America.

Communication from the seller was prompt, polite, and helpful, with dispatch confirmed quickly.

Seller’s pricing was spot on and when I received it, it was in good condition. Seller actually messaged me when they shipped it (I really appreciated that). Overall I’m happy doing business with them!
- t***s (44)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufThe Item itself I rate five stars. The seller, however, I stop at four stars. The seller met two out of three categories I look for when judging my purchasing experience: how well it was packaged, how quickly it was shipped, and how properly it was described; this seller provided prompt shipping and an accurate description, but failed when it came to packaging. The item arrived in a plastic bag without any reinforcement or protection whatsoever and suffered dinged corners on multiple fronts.
