| Abstract: | This review examines recent scholarship on new Mexican immigrant communities in the United States. Organizing their analyses around transnationality, both as analytical principle and as actual condition, these authors establish how immigration flows are changing sending and receiving societies equally, in the case at hand, the United States and Mexico. These analyses should be read as culturally specific to Mexican communities. Critically examining U.S. society as a context contributing to the resignification of these sociocultural experiences is essential for a keener understanding of the impact global processes exert on them, locally and translocally. |
