520 1  "Emotional Bridges to Puerto Rico examines the experiences
       of incorporation among two groups of middle-class Puerto 
       Ricans: one that currently lives on the U.S. mainland and 
       one that has resettled in Puerto Rico. The analysis 
       focuses on their subjective interpretations of 
       incorporation and the conditions under which they decide 
       to move back and forth between the mainland and the 
       island. Findings reveal that migration to the mainland 
       results in educational, occupational, and economic gains 
       that also help return migrants reenter island labor 
       markets. However, settlement in the United States brings 
       its own set of struggles. 
520 8  Puerto Ricans see themselves as members of transnational 
       families, yet the struggles of leading dual lives result 
       in settlement decisions that reflect desires to live 
       locally with roots in one place instead of feeling split 
       between the two. Experiences with U.S. racism complicate 
       these decisions, given Puerto Ricans' struggles with 
       racial identity and exclusion in spite of their economic, 
       occupational, and residential integration into mainland 
       society. This study illustrates the conditions under which
       various patterns of emotional anchoring develop, and how 
       these patterns will impact future Puerto Rican 
       settlements."--Jacket.
