Latinos and the U.S. Political System: Two-Tiered Pluralism
ISBN: 9780877229100 / Angielski / Miękka / 1992 / 233 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Bringing together political science research on Latinos and an analysis of American politics from the vantage point of the Latino political condition, Rodney Hero presents a comprehensive discussion of contemporary Latino politics. The distinct and tenuous nature of Latino status in the U.S. has made it difficult to explain their unique status. This "uniqueness" stems from a variety of circumstances, including the differences among Mexican Americans, Puerto Ricans, and Cubans, and their ambivalent racial classification (white but not "Anglo," or nonwhite but not black). Hero introduces... Bringing together political science research on Latinos and an analysis of American politics from the vantage point of the Latino political condit... |

Racial Diversity and Social Capital: Equality and Community in America
ISBN: 9780521698610 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Race and racial diversity are important aspects of America and have been shown to substantially affect social relations and the political system, often in ways inconsistent with the values of equality. However, greater civic association and a general sense of community, embodied in the concept of social capital, are said to have tremendous beneficial effects and profoundly influence American society. This study juxtaposes and critically assesses two bodies of research, including the work made famous in Robert Putnam''s Bowling Alone, that have reached different conclusions on these issues. Is...

ISBN: 9781107030459 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 266 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Social science research has frequently found conflict between Latinos and African Americans in urban politics and governance, as well as in the groups' attitudes toward one another. Rodney E.

Based on extensive evidence on the activities of minority advocacy group in national politics and the behavior of minority members of Congress, the authors find the relationship between the groups is characterized mainly by non-conflict and a considerable degree of independence. The question of...

Faces of Inequality: Social Diversity in American Politics
ISBN: 9780195117141 / Angielski / Twarda / 1998 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The distinctive thesis of Faces of Inequality is that a state's racial and ethnic composition, as much as any other factor, shapes its political processes and policies. To understand state politics, therefore, we must consider them from the perspective of social diversity. Scholars have broadly acknowledged that racial and ethnic diversity are central to American political history, but Rodney E. Hero is the first to posit and systematically examine this diversity as essential to our understanding of contemporary American politics. In these pages, Hero regards race/ethnicity as...

Multiethnic Moments: The Politics of Urban Education Reform
ISBN: 9781592135363 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. When courts lifted their school desegregation orders in the 1990s - declaring that black and white students were now "integrated" in America's public schools - it 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. cities - Boston, Denver, Los Angeles, and San Francisco - to uncover the factors that...
