Minorities and Representation in American Politics

Description:

For use on minority politics courses, this book reflects a wider array of minority groups than most texts, and the diversity within each group. Using a framework based on four types of representation-descriptive, formalistic, symbolic, and substantive- Rebekah Herrick delves into the very definition of a minority group in politics: one that is under-represented. -- Amazon.com.
