This volume joins the preceding volumes in this distinguished
series in presenting contemporary research by leading political
scientists addressing topics of interest to those concerned with
African-American affairs. It captures the expanding boundaries of
black politics and the persistent interests of the black community
at large.The anchoring symposium, "The Expanding Boundaries of
Black Politics," presents the scholarship of a cadre of young black
political scientists actively engaged in the critical tasks of
moving forward the study of black politics. Their concerns include
expanding the boundaries of black politics along the lines of
epistemology and methodology, especially in regard to core issues
and areas within this field. In an introductory essay by Todd Shaw,
the work of these scholars is situated within the context of
temporal shifts in scholarly emphases. Overlapping issues and
concerns across time as well as black political scholarship as
defined in the field since its beginning are addressed.The second
part of this volume, entitled "Maximizing the Black Vote;
Recognizing the Limits of Electoral Politics," concentrates on
serious lingering social concerns. These include the policy
significance of black mayors affecting the concomitant impact of
the black vote, the boundaries being pushed concerning the
conjunction of black theology and sexual identity, a gendered
analysis of familial policies, and the deepening social and
economic plight of young black males including felon
disfranchisement.The Expanding Boundaries of Black Politics carries
forth the search for an understanding of the relationship between
religion, the black church, and black political behavior;
cross-racial group coalitions as concerns matters of immigration,
growing multiculturalism, and the impact on black politics;
maximizing the impact of the black vote focusing on voting rights
enforcement, the black vote in presidential elections, and the
voice of the Congressional Black Caucus in American foreign policy;
and persistent social inequalities especially as it concerns
ideology, federalism, and social welfare policy.
