Routledge Latino/as in the World-system Book - 21st Century

Explore the shifting demographics and political landscapes of the United States with this academic volume from Routledge. As white Euro-Americans move toward becoming a demographic minority, Latino/as are projected to become the largest minority group, making up 25 percent of the population by the mid-twenty-first century. This book addresses the challenges and political transformations resulting from these changes. Part of the Political Economy of the World-System Annuals, this work examines decolonization struggles within the context of the 21st century U.S. empire. It provides a deep look into the multiracial identity of Latino/as, including Afro-latinos and Indo-latinos, and how these identities impact contemporary global debates. This text is an essential resource for students and scholars studying political economy, sociology, and the changing social fabric of the United States.
