Socioeconomic changes and increase in mixed marriages during the last twenty years have affected the process of identity construction. Starting with an analysis of the characteristics that have typically come to define identity and otherness, we examine the new perception of “the other” from the internal perspective of the community. Data derived from a corpus of interviews provide grounds to claim the emergence of a different discourse representation of “otherness” among groups within the same community. %K Chipilo %K Mexico %K Perception %K Identity %K Otherness %K Immigration %K Chipilo %K México %K Percepción %K Identidad %K Otredad %K Inmigración %K Lingüística %K Linguistics %K Sociología %K Sociology %~ Biblioteca Universidad de Alcala
