Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A world-renowned scholar and statesman, Dr. Ralph J. Bunche (1903-1971) began his career as an educator and a political scientist, and later joined the United Nations, serving as Undersecretary General for seventeen of his twenty-five years with that body. This African American mediator was the firs…t person of color anywhere in the world to be awarded the Nobel Prize for Peace. In the mid-1930s, Bunche played a key role in organizing the National Negro Congress, a popular front-styled group dedicated to progressive politics and labor and civil rights reform.A Brief and Tentative Analysis of Negro Leadership provides key insight into black leadership at the dawn of the modern civil rights movement. Originally prepared for the Carnegie Foundation study, An American Dilemma: The Negro Problem and Modern Democracy, Bunche's research on the topic was completed in 1940. This never-before-published work now includes an extended scholarly introduction as well as contextual comments throughout by Jonathan Scott Holloway.Despite the fact that Malcolm X called Bunche a 'black man who didn't know his history,' Bunche never wavered from his faith that integrationist politics paved the way for racial progress. This new volume forces a reconsideration of Bunche's legacy as a reformer and the historical meaning of his early involvement in the civil rights movement.

Signed by Gunnar Myrdal on half title. lix, [1], 1483 pp. Bound in publisher's green cloth with gilt lettering. Later printing of the single volume edition first published in 1944. Near Fine in a Very Good+ dust jacket, lightly worn and soiled, price-clipped. Includes a laid-in TLS from Myrdal recommending a former secretary, da…ted March 23, 1977, on University of California, Irvine letterhead from their Program in Social Ecology, plus a response letter from the secretary. This work, though somewhat obscure today, was the culminating achievement of Swedish economist and sociologist Gunnar Myrdal's life. It was commissioned by the Carnegie Corporation of New York to study American history and society in hopes of providing answers to what was then commonly called "the negro problem," a stark divide in an openly segregated sociological, political, and economic system. The book was widely read and cited, including in the landmark Brown v. Board of Education Supreme Court decision of 1954 that desegregated public schools.
