Rosaldo believes that culture critics should pay greater attention to change through time. In particular, he advocates subjectivity in social analysis and the use of narrative to avoid portraying human life as static. His vision of social analysis concentrates on borders-the lines along which different groups work and live with divergent understandings. Drawing upon his own background as a Chicano as well as upon the works of three Chicano writers, Rosaldo claims that culture by their very nature are heterogeneous and always working in a realm of borders. [...] Witty, insightful, and persuasive, it is destined to revivify and transform the study of culture. ?
