Immigrants and their Americanborn children represent about one quarter of the United States population. Drawing on rich, indepth ethnographic research, the fascinating case studies in Across Generations examine the intricacies of relations between the generations in a broad range of immigrant groupsfrom Latin America, Asia, the Caribbean, and Africaand give a sense of what everyday life is like in immigrant families.Moving beyond the clich of the children of immigrants engaging in pitched battles against traditionbound parents from the old country, these vivid essays offer a nuanced view that brings out the ties that bind the generations as well as the tensions that divide them. Tackling key issues like parental discipline, marriage choices, educational and occupational expectations, legal status, and transnational family ties, Across Generations brings crucial insights to our understanding of the United States as a nation of immigrants.Contributors: Leisy Abrego, JoAnn DAlisera, Joanna Dreby, Yen Le Espiritu, Greta Gilbertson, Nazli Kibria, Cecilia Menjvar, Jennifer E.
