Cuban Emigres and the American Dream
In: Perspectives on politics: a political science public sphere, Band 4, Heft 2, S. 297-307
Abstract
The author assesses the validity of Huntingtons arguments in light of the Cuban immigrant experience. According to his analysis no single Hispanic mode of adaptation exists, not even in a single immigrant group. This inconsistency can be traced to pre-migration standards, employment opportunities, government support, & the openness of established groups to welcome newcomers among them, rather than Huntingtons reasons for Hispanic adaptation or lack thereof. The author shows that immigrants can adapt to the American way of life while keeping their culture, which in turn adds some flavor to American society as a whole. Tables, References. E. Sanchez
