For courses in Majority-Minority Relations, Racial and Ethnic Relations, Cultural Diversity, and Multiculturalism in departments of Sociology, Ethnic Studies, Political Science, and Education.
A theoretically informed and empirical exploration of the diversity, depth, and significance of racial and ethnic relations in the U.S., this text is organized by racial-ethnic groups rather than by issues. Drawing heavily on a broad range of research sources-that dig deep into the "what," "why," and "how" of racial and ethnic oppression and conflict-it examines 15 major racial and ethnic groups with regard to their incorporation, economic circumstances, political development, and experience with exploitation-with special reference to the assimilation and power conflict (theoretical) perspectives.
