| contents | Assimilation or Cultural Difference? Palestinian Immigrants in Honduras Lirio Gutiérrez Rivera Multidisciplinarias (Ciencias Sociales) Honduras Palestinian immigration social mobility of immigrants This article looks at Palestinian immigrants in contemporary Honduras. It questions the general assumption that Palestinians have successfully assimilated into predominantly mestizo societies. It shows that the Palestinian community has maintained various features and references, such as their religious affiliation and their activity in commerce and trade, that make them a culturally differentiated group. This article also explores why, against the recent backdrop of multiculturalism, the Palestinian immigrant community have not mobilized an ethnic identity in order to gain access to resources or demand collective recognition. Furthermore, it shows that Palestinian immigrants have benefitted from various macro and local political and economic factors and policies that contributed to the accumulation of different forms of capital throughout the 20th century. 2014 artículo científico 0123-885X https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=81530018005 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=815 Revista de Estudios Sociales application/pdf Universidad de los Andes Revista de Estudios Sociales (Colombia) Num.48 |
