This major demographic shift and its implications for both the United States and the growing Hispanic population make Multiple Origins, Uncertain Destinies a most timely book. This report from the National Research Council describes how Hispanics are transforming the country as they disperse geographically. It considers their roles in schools, in the labor market, in the health care system, and in U.S. politics. The book looks carefully at the diverse populations encompassed by the term oeHispanic, representing immigrants and their children and grandchildren from nearly two dozen Spanish-speaking countries. It describes the trajectory of the younger generations and established residents, and it projects long-term trends in population aging, social disparities, and social mobility that have shaped and will shape the Hispanic experience.Hispanic AmericansSocial conditionsStatisticsHispanic AmericansEconomic conditionsStatisticsHispanic AmericansGovernment policyUnited StatesEthnic relationsStatisticsUnited StatesPopulationStatisticsHispanic AmericansSocial conditionsHispanic AmericansEconomic conditionsHispanic AmericansGovernment policy.305.868/073090511Tienda Marta1803833Mitchell Faith1952-1803681National Research Council (U.S.).Division of Behavioral and Social Sciences and Education.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910968042903321Multiple origins, uncertain destinies4351566UNINA
