  Summary

Fifteen scholarly contributions give historical perspectives and then discuss changing demographics in Los Angeles between 1970 and 1990. They look at residential patterns, language, the labor market, and ethnic and gender divisions of labor in the manufacturing economy. Chapters devoted to the major ethnic groups in Los Angeles discuss such issues as the Mexican-origin population--permanent working class or emerging middle class?; Central Americans--at the bottom struggling to get ahead; Asians--the "model minority" deconstructed.
