This book, first published in 1986, examines the race and
immigration issues by considering the nature of the black
'constituency' and its political responses to issues related to the
crisis of Britain's inner cities. It centrally examines black
access to and integration into the public policy process and views
public policy responses and how these affect black politics.
American experience provides a 'model' against which the British
approach is viewed. The book looks at the background to the crisis,
and its roots in economic decline. It also elaborates the
historical development of government policy and legislation towards
race and immigration, and the impact of community relations
agencies, housing and education policy, and immigrant legislation.
Black political action is considered, with particular emphasis on
interest-group activity and community organisation. A concluding
chapter looks at various policy options affecting blacks in
Britain, comparing British and American approaches to community
development and participation.
