    Title Argentine Community Project Dates 1997-2001 Extent 18 interviews (7 in Spanish) Repository Center for Oral and Public History California State University, Fullerton Project Abstract This study, conducted as part of a master's thesis, addresses the historical setting and cultural parameters of the Argentine community in the Los Angeles Basin, the San Fernando Valley, and Orange County. While every immigrant group to come to the United States has left its impact in one form or another as it adapted to the new country, the Argentine immigrant has generally blended unobtrusively into mainstream American society. These interviews explore the current social position of the Argentine immigrant in the greater Los Angeles area, the social contributions and difficulties encountered in an area that traditionally both encourages and hinders its Hispanic population, and the manner in which this group maintains its cultural integrity. The significance of the research is found in understanding not only how Argentines are perceived within the framework of the United States but also gives voice to individual histories.
