Abstract

Dyrness and Sepúlveda suggest that the long history of US intervention together with Salvadoran youth participation in transnational social fields allows them to recognize the contradiction between (north) American discourses of democracy and freedom. In Chapter three, Dyrness and Sepúlveda analyze the ways immigrants, race, and cultural differences are treated in popular and policy discourses in Madrid. Dyrness and Sepulveda indicate that these projects can be a good tool to translate youth awareness into political action. [Extracted from the article]
