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.
