Originally published in 1998, Neighbourhood Jobs, Race, and Skills
argues that race is a powerful and persistent barrier to
employment. Analysing existing literature, this book outlines how
racial discrimination in hiring against African Americans appears
to remain a contributor to high unemployment rates in black
neighbourhoods. The book also discusses how issues such as poor
schools and physical and social isolation compound employment
problems, as well as changes in policy on skill requirements and
the location of jobs. The book argues that combined, this is a
major contributor to concentrated urban employment and poverty.
