Description
Résumé:How Public Policy Impacts Racial Inequality', edited by Josh Grimm and Jaime Loke, brings together noted scholars of political science and mass communication to provide a wide-ranging, in-depth analysis of race in the United States through the lens of public policy. Contributors show how racial issues such as profiling, wealth inequality, and housing segregation relate to public policy decisions at both the local and national levels and explore the inherent conflict between policy enactment, perception, and enforcement. By presenting new research on key topics, including legal definitions of biracial individuals, political opinion formation, the Trump Administration's immigration policies, and the effects of desegregation efforts, this collection provides an expansive look at race and public policy in the twenty-first-century United States.
