Download or read book Governing American Cities written by Michael Jones-Correa and published by Russell Sage Foundation. This book was released on 2001-11-29 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The new immigrants who have poured into the United States over the past thirty years are rapidly changing the political landscape of American cities. Like their predecessors at the turn of the century, recent immigrants have settled overwhelmingly in a few large urban areas, where they receive their first sustained experience with government in this country, including its role in policing, housing, health care, education, and the job market. Governing American Cities brings together the best research from both established and rising scholars to examine the changing demographics of America's cities, the experience of these new immigrants, and their impact on urban politics. Building on the experiences of such large ports of entry as Los Angeles, New York, Miami, Houston, Chicago, and Washington D.C., Governing American Cities addresses important questions about the incorporation of the newest immigrants into American political life. Are the new arrivals joining existing political coalitions or forming new ones? Where competition exists among new and old ethnic and racial groups, what are its characteristics and how can it be harnessed to meet the needs of each group? How do the answers to these questions vary across cities and regions? In one chapter, Peter Kwong uses New York's Chinatown to demonstrate how divisions within immigrant communities can cripple efforts to mobilize immigrants politically. Sociologist Guillermo Grenier uses the relationship between blacks and Latinos in Cuban-American dominated Miami to examine the nature of competition in a city largely controlled by a single ethnic group. And Matthew McKeever takes the 1997 mayoral race in Houston as an example of the importance of inter-ethnic relations in forging a successful political consensus. Other contributors compare the response of cities with different institutional set-ups; some cities have turned to the private sector to help incorporate the new arrivals, while others rely on traditional political channels. Governing American Cities crosses geographic and disciplinary borders to provide an illuminating review of the complex political negotiations taking place between new immigrants and previous residents as cities adjust to the newest ethnic succession. A solution-oriented book, the authors use concrete case studies to help formulate suggestions and strategies, and to highlight the importance of reframing urban issues away from the zero-sum battles of the past.

Download or read book America Becoming written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2001-01-25 with total page 523 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 20th Century has been marked by enormous change in terms of how we define race. In large part, we have thrown out the antiquated notions of the 1800s, giving way to a more realistic, sociocultural view of the world. The United States is, perhaps more than any other industrialized country, distinguished by the size and diversity of its racial and ethnic minority populations. Current trends promise that these features will endure. Fifty years from now, there will most likely be no single majority group in the United States. How will we fare as a nation when race-based issues such as immigration, job opportunities, and affirmative action are already so contentious today? In America Becoming, leading scholars and commentators explore past and current trends among African Americans, Hispanics, Asian Americans, and Native Americans in the context of a white majority. This volume presents the most up-to-date findings and analysis on racial and social dynamics, with recommendations for ongoing research. It examines compelling issues in the field of race relations, including: Race and ethnicity in criminal justice. Demographic and social trends for Hispanics, Asian Americans, and Native Americans. Trends in minority-owned businesses. Wealth, welfare, and racial stratification. Residential segregation and the meaning of "neighborhood." Disparities in educational test scores among races and ethnicities. Health and development for minority children, adolescents, and adults. Race and ethnicity in the labor market, including the role of minorities in America's military. Immigration and the dynamics of race and ethnicity. The changing meaning of race. Changing racial attitudes. This collection of papers, compiled and edited by distinguished leaders in the behavioral and social sciences, represents the most current literature in the field. Volume 1 covers demographic trends, immigration, racial attitudes, and the geography of opportunity. Volume 2 deals with the criminal justice system, the labor market, welfare, and health trends, Both books will be of great interest to educators, scholars, researchers, students, social scientists, and policymakers.
Download or read book Statistical Record of Asian Americans written by Susan B. Gall and published by Gale Cengage. This book was released on 1993 with total page 852 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following the same format as "Statistical Record of Black America" ( LJ 4/15/91) and "Statistical Record of Hispanic Americans" (Gale, 1993), these fine reference works enable users to gain a better understanding of the profiled minority groups. "The Statistical Record of Asian Americans" covers the "American and Canadian Asian and Pacific Islander population segments''; Native North Americans focuses on "the indigenous population of North America.'' Hundreds of tables (1,857 altogether) and vast numbers of figures are given. More than just governmental sources were used to locate data: periodicals, newspapers, popular trade books, and organizational publications are the basis for some of the tables. Data are both historical and contemporary/current; however, much of the 1990 census was not available for perusal, and additional problems faced by the editorial teams are explained. Topics covered in Asian Americans include attitudes and opinions; business and government; crime, law enforcement, and civil rights; education; employment; health; immigration; income, spending, and wealth; population and vital statistics; and religion. Native North Americans deals with such subjects as history; demographics; the family; education; culture; healthcare; social and economic conditions; land and water management; government relations; and Canada (over 300 pages on this latter topic). Regarding depth of coverage, these volumes put the Statistical Abstract of the United States to shame. To the publisher's credit, both works feature print that is relatively large: squinting at the tables won't be necessary. These are marvelous compilations that many libraries will want to obtain. The current price is almost unbelievable for the amount of material included. Hopefully, updated supplements are being planned. Highly recommended for both academic and public libraries.-- Katherine Dahl, Western Illinois Univ. Lib., Macomb - Library Journal.
