Resumen

Este ensayo aborda el concepto de la diáspora en el contexto del transnacionalismo y el cruce de fronteras. Luego compara las diásporas de las Antillas hispánicas (Cuba, República Dominicana y Puerto Rico), trazando un breve perfil demográfico y describiendo su trascendencia económica para los países emisores. Más adelante, el autor propone que los lazos de los migrantes con sus países de origen dependen sustancialmente de la interacción entre gobiernos emisores y receptores. Sobre todo, se evalúan las repercusiones a largo plazo de la condición jurídica de cu-banos, dominicanos y puertorriqueños en Estados Unidos, así como en Puerto Rico, un destino secundario para emigrados cubanos y dominicanos.
