Over the last several decades, academic discourse on racial
inequality has focused primarily on political and social issues
with significantly less attention on the complex interplay between
race and economics. African Americans in the U.S. Economy
represents a contribution to recent scholarship that seeks to
lessen this imbalance. This book builds upon, and significantly
extends, the principles, terminology, and methods of standard
economics and black political economy. Influenced by path-breaking
studies presented in several scholarly economic journals, this
volume is designed to provide a political-economic analysis of the
past and present economic status of African Americans. The chapters
in this volume represent the work of some of the nation's most
distinguished scholars on the various topics presented. The
individual chapters cover several well-defined areas, including
black employment and unemployment, labor market discrimination,
black entrepreneurship, racial economic inequality, urban
revitalization, and black economic development. The book is written
in a style free of the technical jargon that characterizes most
economics textbooks. While the book is methodologically
sophisticated, it is accessible to a wide range of students and the
general public and will appeal to academicians and practitioners
alike.
