The sociology of race and ethnicity is a controversial field, and
yet one which was central to the making of sociology in the first
half of the twentieth century. At the opening of the twentieth
century there were already various sociologically or
anthropologically inclined treatments of the subject of race, but
they were either not particularly scientific or were generalized on
the basis of contemporary philosophical or ethnocentric prejudices.
Two key sources of influence then led to a change of direction in
this field - first, the work of empirical researchers, and second,
the emerging body of work by black sociologists. With a new
introduction by the editor placing the works in their social and
theoretical context, this collection reprints key texts
representing differing perspectives on the sociology of race, as
well as examples of the smaller body of works which comprised early
sociology.
