Beyond Pluralism: The Conception of Groups and Group Identities in America, Band 1Wendy Freedman Katkin, Ned C. Landsman, Andrea Tyree University of Illinois Press, 1998 - 281 Seiten Pluralist or multiculturalist, proudly ethnic or disappearing into the melting pot, people come in all persuasions. This volume attempts to bridge the gap that has developed between pluralists and multiculturalists, advocates of the academic canon and defenders of diversity, celebrants of ethnic heritage and critics of racial ascription. Contributors explore the nation's pluralistic framework as a historical creation, looking at group relations in the United States and how they have been conceptualized in the past. |
