<p><em>Latinos in Israel</em><span> </span>charts the
unexpected ways that non-citizen immigrants become
potential citizens. In the late 1980s Latin Americans
of Christian background started arriving in Israel as
labor migrants. Alejandro Paz examines the ways they
perceived themselves and were perceived as potential
citizens during an unexpected campaign for citizenship
in the mid-2000s. This ethnographic account describes
the problem of citizenship as it unfolds through
language and language use among these Latinos both at
home and in public life, and considers the different
ways by which Latinos were recognized as having some
of the qualities of citizens. Paz explains how
unauthorized labor migrants quickly gained certain
limited rights, such as the right to attend public
schools or the right to work. Ultimately engaging
Israelis across many such contexts, Latinos,
especially youth, gained recognition as citizens to
Israeli public opinion and governing politics. Paz
illustrates how language use and mediatized
interaction are under-appreciated aspects of the
politics of immigration, citizenship, and national
belonging.</p>
