Some of these cases have reached the United States Supreme Court, whose rulings over more than a century have both expanded and restricted the legal rights of Latinos, creating a complex terrain of power relations between the U.S. government and the country's now-largest ethnic minority. To map this legal landscape, Latinos and American Law examines fourteen landmark Supreme Court cases that have significantly affected Latino rights, from Botiller v. Dominguez in 1889 to Alexander v. Sandoval in 2001."-from Amazon.com 606 $aHispanic Americans$xLegal status, laws, etc$zUnited States$vCases 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aHispanic Americans$xLegal status, laws, etc. 676 $a342.7308/73 700 $aSoltero$b Carlos R.$f1969-$0986089 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910452225303321 996 $aLatinos and American law$92253832 997 $aUNINA
