The Latinization of the United States is reflected in forces that reach well beyond our borders. It asserts itself demographically, politically, in the workplace, and in daily life. Now, with Latinos positioned to help bring about change in the Americas from within the U.S., Latin Americans and their emigrant communities are developing new relationships.Borderless Borders explores four themes that engage the Latino community inside and outside the U.S.: -- emerging forms of global and transnational interdependence-- the impact of economic and political restructuring within the U.S., especially within Latino communities-- changing concepts of community, citizenship, political participation, and human rights as individuals and families construct identities for themselves in more than one setting-- new approaches to international relations and issue-oriented social movements and organizations that are developing among these mobile populations
