contents Latino Immigrants and their Perceptions of Religious Institutions: Cubans, Salvadorans and Guatemalans in Phoenix, Arizona. Cecilia Menjívar Demografía church Phoenix religion Latin America international migration Based on qualitative fieldwork and interviews with 54 immigrants, this article compares the place thatreligious institutions occupy in the lives of Guatemalan, Salvadoran, and Cuban immigrants in Phoenix,Arizona. The church has always occupied a prominent place in the lives of immigrants, but not all groups -not even all Latinos- share the same views or experiences. The sharpest differences are between the Cubans,on the one hand, and the Salvadorans and Guatemalans, on the other. This article demonstrates that, forimmigrants, the place of religious institutions and their activities are intimately linked to the broadercontexts of exit from their countries of origin and arrival in the United States. 2001 artículo científico 1665-8906 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=15100104 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=151 Migraciones Internacionales application/pdf El Colegio de la Frontera Norte Migraciones Internacionales (México) Num.1 Vol.I
