Fernando Aquino: Dominican Political Rising in NYC, Gebunden

Klappentext

Dominican Political Rising in NYC traces how a relatively recent immigrant community became a consequential force in the city's governing coalitions. Centering New York's post1965 migration, the book situates Dominican mobilization within shifting urban pluralism, party machines, and inter and inträethnic competition across Manhattan, the Bronx, Queens, and Brooklyn. Drawing on oral histories, demographic and electoral data, and author's candidacy during the 2021 cycle, the study follows leaders incubated in churches, CUNY campuses, trade associations, and communitybased organizations amidst antiimmigrant politics and transnational ties.
