2 books on Latin America
[ send me this essay ]
A 10 page research paper that compares and contrasts 2 texts on Latin American economics. The two texts profiled are Latin America at the Crossroads by H.J. Wiarda (1987) and Fast Forward, Latin America on the Edge of the 21st Century (1997). A through overview of each text is offered, and then the texts are contrasted for quality and content, which are--in both cases -- very good. However, the final assessment in regards to these texts is that their greatest drawback, in regards to applicability by the reader, is that neither book addresses current Latin American realities as one is 17 years out-of-date and the other is 7. No additional sources cited.

A Comparative Perspective on Mexicans and Cubans in the US
[ send me this essay ]
An 8 page paper discussing conditions in the US during the mid-1800s and then jumping 100 years forward to examine immigration patterns since 1959. Demographers predicted long ago that Hispanics collectively would comprise the largest minority within the US by the turn of the century, and such has proven to be true. What they failed to predict is the dichotomy with which these two groups are viewed. The Anglos immigrated to areas already occupied by both Native Americans and Mexicans, and treated each equally poorly. There was little notice of immigrants from Cuba settling in the Tampa area in the 19th century, and they were able to more closely preserve their traditional culture. Bibliography lists 11 sources.
