Contributing factors to the public reaction to immigrants in general and Latinos specifically include the sheer size of recent immigration, the increasing prevalence of Latinos in the work force, and the geographic concentration of Latinos in certain areas of the country. Based on a conference held at the Julian Samora Institute(Michigan) in April 1995, this book is organized around two main themes. The first discusses patterns of immigration and describes several immigrant communities in the United States; the second looks in depth at immigration issues, including economic impacts, employment, and provision of education and other services to immigrants.

  • Imagining the Afro-Uruguayan Conventillo: Belonging and the Fetish of Place and Blackness
    Imagining the Afro-Uruguayan Conventillo: Belonging and the Fetish of Place and Blackness by Vannina Sztainbok A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Sociology and Equity Studies in Education Ontario Institute for Studies in Education University of Toronto © Copyright by Vannina Sztainbok (2009) IMAGINING THE AFRO-URUGUAYAN CONVENTILLO: BELONGING AND THE FETISH OF PLACE AND BLACKNESS Vannina Sztainbok Doctor of Philosophy 2009 Sociology and Equity Studies in Education University of Toronto Abstract This thesis explores the symbolic place occupied by a racialized neighbourhood within the Uruguayan national imaginary. I study the conventillos (tenement buildings) of two traditionally Afro-Uruguayan neighbourhoods in Montevideo, Barrio Sur and Palermo. These neighbourhoods are considered the cradle of Afro-Uruguayan culture and identity. The conventillos have been immortalized in paintings, souvenirs, songs, and books. Over the years most of the residents were evicted due to demolitions, which peaked during Uruguay’s military dictatorship (1973-1984). I address the paradox of how a community can be materially marginalized, yet symbolically celebrated, a process that is evident in other American nations (Brazil, Colombia, etc.). I show how race, class, and gender are entangled in folkloric depictions of the conventillo to constitute a limited notion of blackness that naturalizes the relationship between Afro-Uruguayans, music, sexuality, and domestic work. The folklorization of the space and it residents is shown to be a “fetishization” which enhances the whiteness of the national identity, while confining the parameters of black citizenship and belonging. Utilizing a methodology that draws on cultural geography, critical race, postcolonial, and feminist theory, my dissertation analyzes the various ways that the Barrio Sur/Palermo conventillo has been imagined, represented, and experienced.

    URUGUAY Government Policies and Programs to Eliminate the Worst Forms of Child Labor The Government of Uruguay is an associated country of ILO-IPEC.4525 In December 2000, the government cre- ated the National Committee for the Eradication of Child Labor (CETI).4526 CETI has developed a National Ac- tion Plan for 2003-2005 to combat child labor,4527 and, as part of this plan, the government has held seminars on Tthe problem, developed legal reform proposals, and tailored existing adult skills training programs towards parents of working children.4528 The Government of Uruguay has cooperated with ILO-IPEC, the other MERCOSUR governments, and the Government of Chile to develop a 2002-2004 regional plan to combat child labor.4529 The National Institute for Minors, which oversees government programs for children, heads the Interinstitutional Commission for the Prevention and Protection of Children against Sexual Exploitation. The Commission con- ducts research on the phenomenon and operates a toll-free phone number to connect victims with support ser- vices.4530 It also developed a national plan against commercial sexual exploitation of children that includes education programs.4531 The Institute collaborates with an NGO partner to provide parents of working children with monthly payments in exchange for regular class attendance by their children.4532 INAME also works with at-risk youth such as those living on the street and provides adolescents with work training.4533 The government collaborates with NGOs to fund the Child and Family Service Center Plan,4534 which provides after school recreational programs for children and special services for street children.4535 4525 ILO-IPEC, All About IPEC: Programme Countries, [online] [cited July 4, 2003]; available from http://www.ilo.org/public/english/standards/ ipec/about/countries/t_country.htm.

  • Uruguay MODERATE ADVANCEMENT
    Uruguay MODERATE ADVANCEMENT In 2014, Uruguay made a moderate advancement in efforts to eliminate the worst forms of child labor. The Government expanded the National Action Plan to End Child Labor in Garbage Scavenging to include a study of adolescent work in agriculture in rural areas and established the Office of Rural Employment within the Ministry of Labor to work directly with rural communities. The Ministry of Labor hired 20 additional labor inspectors and the Ministry of Interior held a series of workshops to train police, immigration officials, prosecutors, and judges on human trafficking issues. However, children in Uruguay continue to engage in the worst forms of child labor in garbage scavenging and commercial sexual exploitation. The Government does not collect or publish information on the number of investigations, prosecutions, and convictions for labor and criminal law violations. Uruguay lacks a comprehensive national child labor policy, and programs to prevent and eliminate child labor are limited. I. PREVALENCE AND SECTORAL DISTRIBUTION OF CHILD LABOR Children in Uruguay are engaged in the worst forms of child labor, including in garbage scavenging and commercial sexual exploitation.(1-5) Table 1 provides key indicators on children’s work and education in Uruguay.
