The focus on this abject figure is two-fold: first, to explore its potential to expose the processes of othering to which Latinxs are subjected; and second, to foreground its epistemic response to neocolonial structures and beliefs. Thus, this book draws on relevant sociological literature on the stranger to expose the political and social processes behind the recognition of Latinxs as 'out of place.' On the other hand, and most importantly, this volume follows the path of neo-cosmopolitan approaches to bring to the fore processes of interrelatedness, interaction, and conviviality that run counter to criminalizing discourses around Latinxs. Through an engagement with these theoretical tenets, the goal of this book is to showcase the role of the Latinx stranger as a cosmopolitan mediator that transforms walls into bridges"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 0 $a Introduction: Latinx strangers revisited: from othering to effecting social change / Esther AÌlvarez LoÌpez and Andrea FernaÌndez-GarciÌa -- Transforming empathy into extratextual action: the Latina writer as stranger and mediator in GarciÌa McCall's All the stars denied / Vanessa de Veritch Woodside -- Hospitality and borders in Oscar CaÌsares Where we come from / Ana Manzanas -- Beyond the wall: Latinx strangers and cosmopolitanism in Luis Alberto Urrea's The house of broken angels / Macarena GarciÌa-Avello / Inhabiting Nepantla: the stranger in contemporary Chicana fiction / Norma E.
