title: [The ethnic enclave debate:  a critical review].
abstract: "With the renewal of mass immigration to the United States, large numbers of immigrants have gone into business for themselves.  Research on the Cuban immigrant economy of Miami, Florida found that employment in the 'ethnic enclave' increases immigrant earnings and improves immigrants' chances of moving into self-employment.  This article reviews the American debate that ensued over the 'ethnic enclave' and its causes." (SUMMARY IN ENG AND SPA)
