The bright side of the 1980s, or the "Hispanic decade," as it was
dubbed early on, may ironically turn out to be the detail and
sophistication with which the economic and social reversals
affecting most Latinos in this period have been tracked, with a
fresh cohort of Latino scholars playing an increasingly prominent
role in this endeavor. As this volume conveys, these analyses are
steadily probing more deeply into the fine grain of the processes
bearing on the social conditions of U. S. Latinos and particularly
into the diversity of the experiences of the several Latino-origin
nationalities until recently generally treated in the aggre gate as
"Hispanics. " Though still fragmented and tentative in perspective,
as are the disciplines on which they draw and the research
apparatus on which they rest, the quest among these new voices for
a unifying perspective also comes across in this collection of
essays. There is manifestly more under way here than a simple
demand for inclusion of neglected instances on the margin of
supposedly well understood larger or "mainstream" dynamics. The
1990s open with a more confident assertion of the centrality of the
Latino presence and Latino actors in the overarching
transformations reshaping U. S. society, and especially in the
playing out of these restructurings in the regions and cities of
Latino concentra tion."
