Beskrivelse af Loving Immigrants in America
At once narrative and reflective, Loving Immigrants in America: An Experiential Philosophy of Personal Interaction is a philosophical account of Daniel Campos╩╝s experience as a Latin American immigrant to the United States of America. A series of interrelated personal essays together convey this experience of walking or sauntering, going on road trips, reading American literature in the southern United States, playing association football (soccer or f├║tbol), churchgoing, and Latin dancing in the U.S. This bookΓÇÖs central motif is the caring saunterer, who is understood to be a person who makes him or herself at home anywhere, even as a Latino immigrant in the U.S. The narrative essays convey one immigrantΓÇÖs experience seeking an affective, social, and intellectual home in a new land. The intertwined philosophical reflections lead to the recommendation of an ethic of loveΓÇöresilient loveΓÇöfor the day-to-day interactions and long-term relations between immigrants and hosts in this country. The authorΓÇÖs aim is to establish an open and earnest philosophical dialogue with critical readers interested in the problems surrounding immigration in the U.S. today. He writes as an American philosopherΓÇöin the continental sense of North, Central, and South AmericaΓÇöwhose reflections provide an accessible and provocative angle for the development of insight into the experiences of immigrants in the United States. Thus he brings philosophical reflection drawn from experience, in the broad American tradition, to bear on current issuesΓÇöon the problems of people and not of philosophers, as John Dewey might put it.
