This collection of essays breaks new ground in the comparative
study of ethnic and racial minorities by showing that there is a
common ground shared by those in advanced industrial democracies
that differentiates them from Third World and communist countries.
The study offers a unique synthesis of diverse views by those who
have focused on long-established or ethnoregional minorities and
those who have studied recent immigrant populations. The analysis
of ethnic tolerance, political factors, and conflict resolution
considers why ethnic and racial conflict and disadvantage endure,
pointing to ways that societies are organized economically and
politically and linked into the international political economy.
Students and experts in comparative and minority politics, ethnic
and Black studies, and sociology will benefit from the observations
and conclusions about the operations of economic and political
markets and how they heighten ethnic and racial inequality. The
general introduction and conclusion offer theoretical overviews and
point to social science paradigms concerning the role of ethnic and
racial minorities in the advanced industrial democracies. Noted
contributors examine immigration policy and ethnic tolerance;
minorities, politics, and the state; political consciousness,
organization and participation; and conflict resolution and public
policy. A lengthy reference list is given. This volume will be of
great interest to interdisciplinary audiences in political science,
sociology/social problems, and ethnic and black studies.
