But the existence of a coherent Latino political agenda is highly debatable and likely unviable, as electoral and protest politics erase diversity and debate in favor of images of unity. Situated at the intersection of political theory and Latino studies, this book is the first comprehensive critique of civic Latinidad, analyzing the relationship among participatory democracy, public speech, and racial identification. 606 $aHispanic Americans$xEthnic identity 606 $aHispanic Americans$xCivil rights 606 $aHispanic Americans$xPolitics and government 606 $aPolitical participation$zUnited States 606 $aVoting$zUnited States 606 $aPower (Social sciences)$zUnited States 615 0$aHispanic Americans$xEthnic identity. 615 0$aHispanic Americans$xCivil rights. 615 0$aHispanic Americans$xPolitics and government. 615 0$aPolitical participation 615 0$aVoting 615 0$aPower (Social sciences) 676 $a973.0468 700 $aBeltra?n$b Cristina$01487573 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910798155603321 996 $aThe trouble with unity$93707515 997 $aUNINA
