Are the relationships between minority groups as significant as
those between dominant and minority groups? Phillips argues that
they are in this innovative analysis of the relationships between
the African American and the Jewish American communities during the
last one hundred years. In An Unillustrious Alliance the evolved
relations between the African American and the Jewish American
communities are examined historically and sociologically. The scope
of the work is from 1890 through the 1980s, and the materials are
organized largely into decadal periods. The key relationships
examined are negotiating, bargaining, cooperating, and conflicting.
Two features of Phillips' approach distinguish it from most of the
traditional examinations of racial and ethnic or minority group
relations. First, there is strict emphasis placed on collective
behavior or action. Phillips examines the concerted group actions
of these two minority communities for the attainment of their
separate as well as their joint purposes. Second, the main concern
is the concerted actions or alliances and coalition between two
minority communities, not the relationships between a dominant and
a subordinate group. Throughout the study implications are drawn
for public policy studies as well as for students and scholars of
American ethnic and racial studies.
