MEDINA AUDELO, Ricardo. The Socio-discursive Imaginary: The Socio-cultural Integration of Latin American Immigrants in New York. Sociológica (Méx.) [online]. 2019, vol.34, n.97, pp.291-326.  Epub 25-Ene-2020. ISSN 2007-8358.

International immigration has led to post-modern societies being more diverse and multi-cultural. The aim of the research this article is based on is to use the discourse produced in four discussion groups to identify and analyze Latin American immigrants’ social signifiers about their socio-cultural integration into New York City. The author uses a phenomenological, qualitative, empirical methodology and deals with the material in an interdisciplinary framework. The results suggest that, for our narrators, socio-cultural integration is linked to models of assimilationism and, to a lesser extent, to liberal multiculturalism.
