Spring 2025 CHSTU 405 Advanced Chicano Studies In Social Science

Course Subtitle: "Latinx youth, mobility and rights”
In a discussion-based seminar, students will explore the relationships between youth, mobility and rights in the context of migration. What has changed for Latinx children and youth in the experience of migration? What are the changing social and economic patterns of family organization and relationships? Students will examine the complex experiences across the life stages of young migrants in family, work, documentation, deportation, and social movements, just to name a few. Students will also have a broad understanding of laws and policies that structure the lives of Latinx migrant youth as well as this community's impact on their design. I approach this course as a sociologist, but the course literature will draw on critical race and migration scholarship across several disciplines.

By the end of the course students should:
1. understand how to use youth, race and gender as analytical categories in the study of different arenas of social life impacted by international migration;
2. be familiar with main concepts, theories and empirical contributions in the field of youth and migration studies;
3. be familiar with young migrants’ contributions to research, policy and practice.
