This book brings together a number of original essays by leading scholars of the most significant feature of the new immigration: Mexican immigration to the United States. By the year 1990, there were more legal immigrants from Mexico than from all of Europe combined. Today, there are some 7 million Mexican immigrants residing in the United States, constituting roughly a third of the total foreign-born population of the country (González Baker et al., this volume). More than one-quarter of all Mexican immigrants to the United States arrived in the last five years (Binational Study on Migration 1997, ii). Mexican immigrants now constitute 40 percent of the total Mexican-origin population of the United States. Talk of "the new immigration" refers largely to immigration from Latin America, the Caribbean, and Asia. Mexican immigration has come to dominate the new immigration to the United States. In the rapidly growing area of immigration studies, Mexican immigration is where some of the most important basic research and theory is now taking shape.

     The littleknown field of Jewish latin American Literature, an essay by Stephen Sadow.  
     http://www.numag.neu.edu/0001/ftf.html
     
     Extractions: By Stephen Sadow A subset of the field of Jewish studies, Latin American Jewish studies investigates the history, sociology, demographics, and cultural aspects of Jewish communities and individuals from Latin America and the Caribbean. What do you do when you are working with a literature that is obscure outside of its home culture? What do you do when members of one culture know little of another culture, and vice versa? Responding to these questions, I decided upon an approach that would take me far beyond traditional literary criticism. Through a series of "voyages of discovery" to Jewish communities in Latin America, a growing number of correspondences with writers, literary critics, psychologists, even mystics, and an enormous amount of reading, I immersed myself in the Jewish literature and culture of Latin America. These writers wrote of the strains of being in the minority, of balancing Jewish and Hispanic culture, of Jewish tradition, of optimism for the future, of Zionism, and of the Holocaust. It became my intention to enter this literary culture as a step towards truly understanding its writings. I wanted to see the world as a Jewish Latin American writer saw it. More importantly, it was my goal to become a transmitter of culture from Spanish to English and from English to Spanish.
