The text tunes the learner, at the advanced level, by introducing the communicative performance taking into consideration the Spanish dialectal variations into some cultural aspects of the traditional and contemporary systems of Latin American societies. The book applies a practical approach to learning Spanish as a foreign language by focusing on most Latin American countries culture with specific topics: family, social stratification, politics, religion, the position of women, transportation problems, drugs and trafficking, traditional healers, the concept of time, the social stratification of language, the life of some indigenous cultures in the high Andes and in the deep jungles, students visiting a foreign country, in addition to some other topics of interest.

Book excerpt: In their preface to this two-volume encyclopedia the editors (both based at Washington State University) explain their use of "Latino" rather than "Hispanic," a term, they explain, coined by the US government that erroneously asserts an identification with Spain. Notions about terminology change over time, but there's no doubt about the wide audience for this reference, which is geared toward students in high school and above as well as general readers and professionals in various roles involving the Spanish-speaking population in the United States. Three overview essays cover historical eras, from 1492 through the present. Some 300 alphabetically arranged entries--signed articles of a page or more in length, with cross references and further reading lists--include biographies of influential Latinos, discussion of specific national and ethnic communities in the US, and description of institutions, organizations, movements, social issues, forms of expression, and various aspects of Latino identity.

Download or read book Latino as in the World system written by Ramon Grosfoguel and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-11-17 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contributors Immanuel Wallerstein, Enrique Dussel, Walter Mignolo, Agustin Lao, Lewis Gordon, James V. Fenelon, Roberto Hernandez, James Cohen, Santiago Slabosky, Susanne Jonas, and Thomas Reifer. By the mid-twenty-first century, white Euro-Americans will be a demographic minority in the United States and Latino/as will be the largest minority (25 percent). These changes bring about important challenges at the heart of the contemporary debates about political transformations in the United States and around the world. Latino/as are multiracial (Afro-latinos, Indo-latinos, Asian-latinos, and Euro-latinos), multi-ethnic, multireligious (Jewish, Catholic, Protestant, Muslim, indigenous, and African spiritualities), and of varied legal status (immigrants, citizens, and illegal migrants). This collection addresses for the first time the potential of these diverse Latino/a spiritualities, origins, and statuses against the landscape of decolonization of the U.S. economic and cultural empire in the twenty-first century. Some authors explore the impact of Indo-latinos and Afro-latinos in the United States and others discuss the conflicting interpretations and political conflicts arising from the "Latinization" of the United States.

Dividido en nueve capítulos, el material abarca temas cruciales tales como política, identidad, raza, género, inmigración, violencia, exilio, medio ambiente, gastronomía, fútbol y música. Cada texto puede leerse de forma independiente, lo que permite que los profesores seleccionen las lecturas según las particularidades de cada curso. Pensado en un principio para estudiantes de español, esta antología es sobre todo una lectura indispensable para cualquier persona interesada en la zona que concentra el mayor número de hispanohablantes en el mundo.
