International Handbook on Race and Race Relations

Although race relations in countries such as the United States and South Africa have been extensively investigated, the growing importance of the issue worldwide is not generally appreciated, and no workable framework for research on the subject has been available to scholars. This new study creates such a framework and increases our understanding of the meaning and significance of race throughout the world. Written by a group of experts with firsthand knowledge of race relations in the twenty nations studied, it offers a depth and scope of information that is unique in the literature of the field.
