Praise for the first edition . . . "A welcome addition to the
growing sociological literature that looks beyond the circumstances
of victims for the solutions to various social problems."
--Contemporary Sociology "A clear articulation of a number of
historical, spatial, and international perspectives on race
relations. The new and novel focus provides fresh insights into a
field that has found the development of a unified theory elusive."
--International Social Science Review Challenging the popularly
held view that racism is disappearing as a social phenomenon, the
second edition of Impacts of Racism on White Americans reexamines
the questions proposed by its first edition and notes that one
decade later little has changed. This stimulating collection of
original papers focuses on the new ways in which white Americans
act out racism and weighs the advantages and disadvantages that
whites experience from racism. Drawing on evidence from the social
and behavioral sciences, this timely revision argues that racism is
essentially a problem of European Americans and that most whites do
not benefit from racism in the long term. In addition, this volume
holds that racism cannot be eliminated until it is viewed as a
white problem that seriously compromises the quality of life. The
concluding chapter of the first edition, which summarized the major
insights and findings of that edition, has been reprinted and in
the final chapter of this new edition, editors Benjamin P. Bowser
and Raymond G. Hunt expand on recommendations and clearly
illustrate how far we've come, and most important, how far we have
to go. Sure to follow the success of its first edition, Impacts of
Racism on White Americans will make a major contribution to our
understanding of the impacts of racism while providing students and
professionals in race/ethnic studies, sociology, urban studies, and
social psychology with thought-provoking, quality material.
