Il y sera question, entre autres, de l'immigration mexicaine, des programmes de travailleurs invités entre États-Unis et Mexique (le programme Bracero), des appels à la fin du programme par les travailleurs autochtones d'origine mexicaine dans les années 1960 et des nombreux effets pervers de la « fin » du programme Bracero. Après l'annexion du nord du Mexique en 1848, les travailleurs d'origine mexicaine ont été considérés comme des intrants de travail, constamment « nouveaux » et « perpétuellement étrangers » malgré leur présence de longue date dans ce qui est aujourd'hui les États-Unis. Ces relations ont eu pour conséquence une diversité durable sur le marché du travail américain et plus généralement dans la culture et la société.
Abstract : This chapter discusses the evolution of Mexican worker relations in the USA in the 19th and 20th centuries. Topics covered include Mexican Immigration, guest worker programs between the USA and Mexico (the "Bracero Program"), and calls for an end to the program by domestic Mexican ancestry workers in the 1960s, and the many unintended consequences of the "end" of the Bracero Program. Following the annexation of Northern Mexico in 1848, Mexican ancestry workers have been considered labor inputs, constantly "new" and "perpetually foreign" despite their long presence in what is today the USA. This labor relationship has led to lasting diversity in the US labor market and in culture and society more broadly.

Fighting for civil rights and celebrating a distinct ethnic identity, the Chicano Movement had a lasting impact on the United States, from desegregation to bilingual education.
Rethinking the Chicano Movement provides an astute and accessible introduction to this vital grassroots movement. Bringing together different fields of research, this comprehensive yet concise narrative considers the Chicano Movement as a national, not just regional, phenomenon, and places it alongside the other important social movements of the era. Rodriguez details the many different facets of the Chicano movement, including college campuses, third-party politics, media, and art, and traces the development and impact of one of the most important post-WWII social movements in the United States.

Caughey of UCLA assembled 11 articles on the 100th anniversary of the California Gold Rush. As this journals current Editor, I stumbled upon this early special issue, and after reading the articles was confident that a revisiting was in order. To this end, I asked Andrew C. Isenberg, Hall Distinguished Professor of American History at the University of Kansas, a preeminent Gold Rush scholar, to reconsider these articles in light of the 70 years of historiography that have developed since this early special issue on the topic. Having recently edited the “Alternative Wests” special issue for the Pacific Historical Review (Vol. 86 No. 1, February 2017), I felt he was the person to ask to reconsider these articles. This virtual special issue on the 70th anniversary of the printing of the first is the end result, and I hope readers find it helpful.

Whereas scholarship on the carceral state has traditionally focused on the U.S. South, the urban North, and post-war Los Angeles, scholars have more recently begun to focus on the long history of incarceration throughout the U.S. West. The West provides a rich environment for examining the carceral state, especially as it relates to race and immigration. In addition to Kelly Lytle Hernandez's introduction to the special issue, articles include Elliott Young on immigrant incarceration at McNeil Federal Penitentiary between 1880 and 1930, Benjamin Madley interpreting the Spanish Mission system as a carceral regime, and Mary Mendoza examining the U.S.-Mexico border fence as a carceral environment that locks undocumented immigrants both in and out.
