The Hispanic Population of the United States
Author: Frank D. BeanPublisher: Russell Sage Foundation
ISBN: 1610440374
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 481
Book Description
The Hispanic population in the United States is a richly diverse and changing segment of our national community. Frank Bean and Marta Tienda emphasize a shifting cluster of populations—Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban, Central and South American, Spanish, and Caribbean—as they examine fertility and immigration, family and marriage patterns, education, earnings, and employment. They discuss, for instance, the effectiveness of bilingual education, recommending instead culturally supportive programs that will benefit both Hispanic and non-Hispanic students. A study of the geographic distribution of Hispanics shows that their tendency to live in metropolitan areas may, in fact, result in an isolation which denies them equal access to schooling, jobs, and health care. Bean and Tienda offer a critical, much-needed assessment of how Hispanics are faring and what the issues for the future will be. Their findings reveal and reflect differences in the Hispanic population that will influence policy decisions and affect the Hispanic community on regional and national levels. "...represents the state of the art for quantitative analysis of ethnic groups in the United States." —American Journal of Sociology A Volume in the Russell Sage Foundation Census Series

Urban Housing Segregation of Minorities in Western Europe and the United States

ISBN:
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 456
Book Description
This book provides an expert examination and comparison of housing segregation in major population centers in the United States and Western Europe and analyzes successes and failures of government policies and desegregation programs in the United States, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Sweden, France, and West Germany. The collection begins with a review of the historical development of housing segregation in these countries, describing current housing conditions, concentration of housing in each country's leading cities, minority populations and the housing they occupy--specifically public, nonprofit, and owner-occupied dwellings. When focusing on the United States, the contributors assess housing segregation, antisegregation measures, and institutional racism toward blacks in the Midwest and South, and toward Mexican-Americans throughout American cities. Chapters dealing with Western Europe include housing segregation of South Asian and West Indian immigrants in Britain, immigrants in Sweden, Turkish, and Yugoslav "guest workers" in West Germany, and Algerian and other Arab groups in France. The book concludes with discussions of public housing policies; suburban desegregation, resegregation, and integration maintenance programs; specific integration stabilization programs; and desegregation efforts in one specific place.

Book Description
For almost half a century, scholars and policy makers in the US have emphasized the negative effects of residential segregation for social and economic advancement of the urban poor. Policies to fight segregation have however shown limited success and notably met the resistance of immigrant minorities. The present book adopts a new perspective and examines under which conditions segregation facilitates or hinders the building of social and other assets or capital of immigrants. Analyzing experiences with ethnic clustering of Mexicans in St. Paul, Minnesota, it calls for pluralistic housing policies to accommodate the increasingly multicultural urban realities in the US.
