Diálogo is an interdisciplinary, blind refereed journal published since 1996 by the Center for Latino Research at DePaul University in Chicago. Diálogo seeks research articles of regional and national contexts with focus on diverse Latin American and U.S. Latino experiences, recent Latino immigration and places of origin, including indigenous experience.
Current Issue: Volume 14, Number 1 (2011)
Volume 14 is a sociological/political approach to poverty and inequality among Latinos in the Midwest, with some comparison to other U.S. regions, on the lack of integration of Latinos into various U.S. regional societies and economies. Articles and data study the Chicago metropolitan area, focusing on the dimensions of education, labor market, civic engagement, and spatial distribution. Despite some limitations of data available, new facts and hypotheses illuminate potential innovative paths for research and social policy.Articles
