Voices of a New Chicana/o History. Edited by Refugio Il Rochín and Denis N. Valdés. (East Lansing: Michigan State University Press, 2000. x + 307 pp. Notes, bibliographies. $29.95, paper.)
|
This timely volume addresses the state of Chicana/o history at a particularly complex historical and intellectual juncture. Drawn from papers first delivered at a conference held at Michigan State University in the spring of 1996, this anthology brings together the views of some of the most senior Chicano Studies scholars and a group of up-and-coming younger historians. Contributors were asked to respond to a long list of questions and themes, including the relationship of Mexican American history to Mexican national history, the theoretical underpinning of the field, and the relationship of ideology and political activism to the writing of history. |
