Reflections on Black Politics in the Early 21st Century

Available in 2012

Reflections on Black Politics in the Early 21st Century concentrates on the statistical analysis of the determinants of racial attitudes and the massive changes in racial attitudes, particularly among blacks and Latinos (the groups with the largest changes), that occurred between 2008-2010. Reflections also more explicitly engages the political theory literature using that literature to engage such questions as what traditional, if any, modes of black political leadership are relevant for contemporary black politics. This book is the most traditional political science manuscript of the three (to the degree that any of my work can be loosely labeled “traditional political science”).
