Ethnicity and Race: Making Identities in a Changing World (Sociology for a New Century Series)

Ethnicity and Race: Making Identities in a Changing World (Sociology for a New Century Series) by Cornell, Stephen E.. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780761985013.

An evenhanded and provocative exploration that shows how the social constructions of race and ethnicity can both be imagined and at the same time be absolutely fundamental to social life and to one′s deepest sense of the self. Readers of this book will see everything from ethnic conflict in Eastern European cities to multiculturalism in U.S. schools with a fresh understanding and a sociological eye. "I am enthusiastic about this book because I think it serves a series of needs which are not currently met by the publishing community: scholarly material which is neither diluted for an introductory mass market nor professional." -- Jeffrey Chin, LeMoyne College (former Editor of Teaching Sociology)
