Los Dominicanyorks: The Making of a Binational Society

In: The annals of the American Academy of Political and Social Science, Band 533, S. 70-86

Abstract

Explores the US-linked Dominican migration as a distinct social group, clearly distinguishable from its nonmigrant conationals & functioning in a transnational milieu. The group's socioeconomic, cultural, & political characteristics & its relationships with the two national states are examined. Because of the migrants' binational character, the US & the Dominican governments would be advised to foster connections between the resources & demands generated by these binationals & the development efforts in the Dominican Republic & in Dominican settlements overseas.
