Latinos have emerged as one of the fastest-growing ethnic
populations in the American South. A 'New South' is taking shape in
a region where culture and class relations have traditionally been
constructed along black-white divides and experience absorbing
culturally or linguistically foreign immigrants has been limited.
This book presents a multidisciplinary examination of the impacts
and responses across the Southeastern United States to contemporary
Latino immigration. The rapid and large-scale movement of Latinos
into the region has challenged old precepts and forced Southerners
to confront the impacts of globalization and transnationalism in
their daily lives. Drawing on theoretical perspectives as well as
empirical research, the work provides insights into the Latino
experience in both urban and rural locales. Each chapter is centred
on the nexus between the immigrants' experiences in settling and
adapting to new lives in the American South and the construction of
transformed social, economic, political and cultural spaces.
