Overview

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. In these pages, Rodney E. Hero posits and systematically examines racial and ethnic diversity as essential to our understanding of contemporary American politics.
