Society consists of numerous interconnected, interacting, and
interdependent groups, which differ in power and status. The
consequences of belonging to a more powerful, higher-status
'majority' versus a less powerful, lower-status 'minority' can be
profound, and the tensions that arise between these groups are the
root of society's most difficult problems. To understand the
origins of these problems and develop solutions for them, it is
necessary to understand the dynamics of majority-minority
relations. This volume brings together leading scholars in the
fields of stigma, prejudice and discrimination, minority influence,
and intergroup relations to provide diverse theoretical and
methodological perspectives on what it means to be a minority. The
volume, which focuses on the strategies that minorities use in
coping with majorities, is organized into three sections: 'Coping
with Exclusion: Being Excluded for Who You Are'; 'Coping with
Exclusion: Being Excluded for What You Think and Do'; and 'Coping
with Inclusion'.
