| Abstract | Hispanics and the Future of America presents details of the complex story of a population
that varies in many dimensions, including national origin, immigration status,
and generation. The papers in this volume draw on a wide variety of data sources to
describe the contours of this population, from the perspectives of history, demography,
geography, education, family, employment, economic well-being, health, and
political engagement. They provide a rich source of information for researchers, policy
makers, and others who want to better understand the fast-growing and diverse
population that we call "Hispanic."
The current period is a critical one for getting a better understanding of how
Hispanics are being shaped by the U.S. experience. This will, in turn, affect the
United States and the contours of the Hispanic future remain uncertain. The uncertainties
include such issues as whether Hispanics, especially immigrants, improve
their educational attainment and fluency in English and thereby improve their economic
position; whether growing numbers of foreign-born Hispanics become citizens
and achieve empowerment at the ballot box and through elected office;
whether impending health problems are successfully averted; and whether
Hispanics' geographic dispersal accelerates their spatial and social integration. The
papers in this volume provide invaluable information to explore these issues. |
