From the Publisher
"This is ground-breaking work on a truly important topic: the emergence, or perhaps the lack of emergence, of Latino/immigrant politics and a Latino political identity in New York City. Between Two Nations is a readable, well-researched, and highly evocative study, and Jones-Correa does an admirable job of rooting his work in a larger context, relating his study to both contemporary developments nationally and to historical precedents."-Philip Kasinitz, author of Caribbean New York: Black Immigrants and the Politics of Race"This well-researched book provides an excellent and sophisticated analysis of a neglected issue: the political marginality of Latin American immigrants to the US, many of whom acquire residency but not citizenship as soon as they are able."-Choice
"The questions asked in this book are fundamental to the future of the policy. . . Jones-Correa offers a solid contribution to the emerging study of immigrant political adaption."-Political Science Quarterly
"A valuable contribution to the growing literature on transnational immigrant communities. . . . Persuasive and engaging."-International Migration Review
