They and We: Racial and Ethnic Relations in the United States

By Peter I. Rose

Book Overview

One of the most widely recognized and best-known introductions to the study of race and ethnic relations in the United States, They and We is the book by which many of today's social scientists were first introduced to the sociology of intergroup relations. Praised for its engaging, even-handed, jargon-free style, They and We draws students into the excitement of learning about this society and the ways by which to analyze its complexities. Chapters are self-contained essays which, woven together, provide a seamless overview of intergroup relations. The Fifth Edition has been divided into four sections -- Concepts and Contexts, The American People, Attitudes, Actions, and Reactions, and Power, Politics, and Pluralism -- and gives increased emphasis to the histories and experiences of all of America's peoples.
