Amidst discontent over America's growing diversity, many white
Americans now view the political world through the lens of a racial
identity. Whiteness was once thought to be invisible because of
whites' dominant position and ability to claim the mainstream, but
today a large portion of whites actively identify with their racial
group and support policies and candidates that they view as
protecting whites' power and status. In White Identity Politics,
Ashley Jardina offers a landmark analysis of emerging patterns of
white identity and collective political behavior, drawing on
sweeping data. Where past research on whites' racial attitudes
emphasized out-group hostility, Jardina brings into focus the
significance of in-group identity and favoritism. White Identity
Politics shows that disaffected whites are not just found among the
working class; they make up a broad proportion of the American
public - with profound implications for political behavior and the
future of racial conflict in America.
