基本説明
Tackles with new theoretical discussion and up-to-date research, the on-going debates on the ways in which race, class culture and economy are linked.
Full Description
The nature of the connection between economic action and structure and ethnic identities receives here a long overdue and incisive re-examination. The question is addressed theoretically by revisiting the 'race and class' debate and by a wide-ranging review of the contexts in which the conjuncture of ethnicity-economy is worked out. It is also addressed empirically in a series of case studies of ethnically-defined groups and their articulation with the economy. A combination of established authors and new researchers have made an invaluable contribution to the field.
