- Book Synopsis
- Political and economic hardships have led over one million Dominicans to leave their homeland and settle in foreign countries - the United States, Spain, Venezuela, and other countries in Latin American and Europe. In essays covering subjects from politics to literature, this interdisciplinary work analyzes the Dominican diaspora as a multifaceted global phenomenon in which Dominican transmigrants live, work, and participate in two or more societies. It examines the forces that fueled the diasporic migration of Dominicans; the characteristics of the migration process; the main challenges to political and social incorporation; the formation of communities in New York, Spain, and other locales; and issues of gender in education, employment, and the household.
