This book examines the remarkable increase of blacks at all levels
of political life and makes the first systematic comparison of
black and white elected officials. While observers have disagreed
as to whether black politicians act differently from their white
counterparts, little empirical work has been done because until
recently there were few blacks in office. Leonard A. Cole's
analysis of elected officials in New Jersey has an important
bearing on the controversy. Originally published in 1976. The
Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology
to again make available previously out-of-print books from the
distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These
editions preserve the original texts of these important books while
presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The
goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access
to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books
published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.
