The volume as a whole aims at generating new ways of understanding what counts as culture and \"theory\" and who counts as a theorist. A selected and annotated bibliography of contemporary Chicano literary criticism is also included.\u003cbr\u003eBy recovering neglected authors and texts and introducing readers to an emergent Chicano canon, by introducing new perspectives on American literary history, ethnicity, gender, culture, and the literary process itself, \u003ci\u003eCriticism in the Borderlands\u003c\/i\u003e is an agenda-setting collection that moves beyond previous scholarship to open up the field of Chicano literary studies and to define anew what is American literature.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eContributors. \u003c\/i\u003eNorma Alarcón, Héctor Calderón, Angie Chabram, Barbara Harlow, Rolando Hinojosa, Luis Leal, José E.
