Barrioization (sometimes spelled barriorization) is a theory developed by Chicano scholars Albert Camarillo and Richard Griswold del Castillo to explain the historical formation and maintenance of ethnically segregated neighborhoods of Chicanos and Latinos in the United States. The term was first coined by Camarillo in his book Chicanos in a Changing Society (1979). The process was explained in the context of Los Angeles by Griswold del Castillo in The Los Angeles Barrio, 1850-1890: A Social History (1979).[1][2] Camarillo defined the term as "the formation of residentially and segregated Chicano barrios or neighbourhoods."[3] The term is used in the field of Human Geography.[4]
