Titel: An upbeat west side story: Puerto Ricans and postwar racial politics in Chicago
Auteur: Gina M. Pérez
Verschenen in: Centro journal
Paginering: Jaargang 13 (2001) nr. 2 pagina's 47-71
Jaar: 2001
Inhoud: Chicago Puerto Ricans have inhabited a number of ideological positions since their arrival en asse in the late 1940s, ranging from their short-lived tenure as the city's "model" minority in the 1950s and 1960s and, eventually, to their membership in urban America's alleged "culture of poverty" and "underclass". Using historical and ethnographic data, this article analyzes the different ways in which Chicago Puerto Ricans have been portrayed and imagined differently over time; explores the role of the state in constructing and disseminating particular constructions of Puerto Rican migrants in Chicago; and demonstrates how varying constructions of Puerto Ricans are related to both their shifting location in Chicago's political economy as well as their relationship vis-à-vis ethnic and racial and ethnic Others in the city.
