While popular literature of the era portrayed the diasporic group as a closed, inassimilable ethnic enclave, closer inspection instead reveals numerous economic, political, and ethnic divisions. As with all organizations, asymmetrical power relations permeated Havana’s Barrio Chino and the larger Chinese Cuban community. The authors of Contested Community use difficult-to-access materials from Cuba’s national archive to offer a unique and insightful interpretation of a little-understood immigrant group.Chinese Overseas11.ChineseCubaHistory20th centuryImmigrantsCubaHistory20th centuryChineseCubaEthnic identityChinesefastChineseEthnic identityfastChineseSocial conditionsfastEmigration and immigrationfastEthnic relationsfastImmigrantsfastCubaEmigration and immigrationHistory20th centuryCubaEthnic relationsCubafastHistory.fastChineseHistoryImmigrantsHistoryChineseEthnic identity.Chinese.ChineseEthnic identity.ChineseSocial conditions.Emigration and immigration.Ethnic relations.Immigrants.305.80097291Herrera Jerez Miriam1975-1070572Castillo Santana Mario1975-1070573Kenley David L.1968-995805Lorenzen Charla Neuroth1070574NL-LeKBNL-LeKBBOOK9910164961403321Contested community2564349UNINA
