When courts lifted their school desegregation orders in the
1990sOCodeclaring that black and white students were now integrated
in America's public schoolsOCoit seemed that a window of
opportunity would open for Latinos, Asians, and people of other
races and ethnicities to influence school reform efforts. However,
in most large cities the multiethnic moment passed, without leading
to greater responsiveness to burgeoning new constituencies."
Multiethnic Moments" examines school systems in four major U.S.
citiesOCoBoston, Denver, Los Angeles, and San FranciscoOCoto
uncover the factors that worked for and against
ethnically-representative school change. More than a case study,
this book is a concentrated effort to come to grips with the
multiethnic city as a distinctive setting. It utilizes the politics
of education reform to provide theoretically-grounded, empirical
scholarship about the broader contemporary politics of race and
ethnicityOCoemphasizing the intersection of interests, ideas, and
institutions with the differing political legacies of each of the
cities under consideration."
