Описание:

Studies conducted on Latino immigrants and political participation primarily focus on large population groups such as Puerto Ricans, Cubans, and Mexicans. However, this study centers on Central American Hondurans, also a group with substantial populations in U.S. cities. The theoretical idea central in examining this query is that New York City Honduran political participation is related to their ethnic identity, association with churches in their U.S. communities, the extent of financial ties, and political participation (experiences) in their country of origin. This study will also add to the understanding of differences evident in U.S. Latino political participation. Uncovering differences of this growing minority contributes to seeking ways to increase their overall political participation, thus enabling them to contribute to the effectiveness of America’s democracy by affecting the input and outcome of public policy.
