Between the mid-nineteenth and mid-twentieth centuries, an influx
of Europeans, Asians, and Arabic speakers indelibly changed the
face of Latin America. While many studies of this period focus on
why the immigrants came to the region, this volume addresses how
the newcomers helped construct national identities in the
Caribbean, Mexico, Argentina, and Brazil. In these essays, some of
the most respected scholars of migration history examine the range
of responses-some welcoming, some xenophobic-to the newcomers. They
also look at the lasting effects that Jewish, German, Chinese,
Italian, and Syrian immigrants had on the economic, sociocultural,
and political institutions. These explorations of assimilation,
race formation, and transnationalism enrich our understanding not
only of migration to Latin America but also of the impact of
immigration on the construction of national identity throughout the
world.
