Opis

This book analyzes the politics behind improving race relations in local communities through the use of mayoral task forces. By investigating three communities with unique cultural, social, economic, and racial characteristics, Middleton provides insight into why some communities are more likely to realize success in influencing policy makers to adopt policy innovations aimed at improving race relations than others.
