Whether they live on the island, in the States, or divide time between the two, most imagine Puerto Rico as a separate nation and view themselves primarily as Puerto Rican. At the same time, Puerto Ricans have been U.S. citizens since 1917, and Puerto Rico has been a U.S. commonwealth since 1952.</p><p>Jorge Duany uses previously untapped primary sources to bring new insights to questions of Puerto Rican identity, nationalism, and migration. Drawing a distinction between political and cultural nationalism, Duany argues that the Puerto Rican "nation" must be understood as a new kind of translocal entity with deep cultural continuities. He documents a strong sharing of culture between island and mainland, with diasporic communities tightly linked to island life by a steady circular migration. Duany explores the Puerto Rican sense of nationhood by looking at cultural representations produced by Puerto Ricans and considering how others--American anthropologists, photographers, and museum curators, for example--have represented the nation. His sources of information include ethnographic fieldwork, archival research, interviews, surveys, censuses, newspaper articles, personal documents, and literary texts.</p>...681979The Puerto Rican Nation on the Move551580https://www.gandhi.com.mx/the-puerto-rican-nation-on-the-move-1/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/538252/5004ed1e-6e7a-4bb5-b256-601e20d02f67.jpg?v=638335212395900000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20039780807861479_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_<p>Puerto Ricans maintain a vibrant identity that bridges two very different places--the island of Puerto Rico and the U.S. mainland.
