Perspectives on Las Américas: A Reader in Culture, History,
and Representation charts new territory by demonstrating the
limits of neatly demarcating the regions of ‘Latin
America’ and the ‘United States’. This landmark
volume presents key readings that collectively examine the
historical, cultural, economic, and political integration of
Latina/os across the Americas, thereby challenging the barriers
between Latina/o Studies and Latin American/Caribbean Studies.
