Politics of Ethnicity

The monumental Harvard Encyclopedia of American Ethnic Groups is the most authoritative single source available on the history, culture, and distinctive characteristics of ethnic groups in the United States. Dimensions of Ethnicity is designed to make this landmark scholarship available to everyone in a series of handy paperbound student editions. Selections in this series will include outstanding articles that illuminate the social dynamics of a pluralistic nation or masterfully summarize the experience of key groups. Written by the best-qualified scholars in each field, Dimensions Ethnicity will reflect the complex interplay between assimilation and pluralism that is a central theme of the American experience.Walzer, Michael is the author of 'Politics of Ethnicity' with ISBN 9780674687530 and ISBN 0674687531.
