Racial and Ethnic Politics in American Suburbs examines racial and
ethnic politics outside traditional urban contexts and questions
the standard theories we use to understand mobility and government
responses to rapid demographic change and political demands. This
study moves beyond traditional scholarship in urban politics,
departing from the persistent treatment of racial dynamics in terms
of a simple black-white binary. Combining an interdisciplinary,
multi-method, and multiracial approach with a well-integrated
analysis of multiple forms of data including focus groups, in-depth
interviews, and census data, Racial and Ethnic Politics in American
Suburbs explains how redistributive policies and programs are
developed and implemented at the local level to assist immigrants,
racial/ethnic minorities, and low-income groups - something that
given earlier knowledge and theorizing should rarely happen. Lorrie
Frasure-Yokley relies on the framework of suburban institutional
interdependency (SII), which presents a new way of thinking
systematically about local politics within the context of suburban
political institutions in the United States today.
