This book explores the racial rules that are often hidden but perpetuate vast racial inequities in the United States.
Cette série explore les fondements économiques et sociaux structurels qui créent des inégalités basées sur les groupes. Elle privilégie l'examen des causes systémiques de la disparité plutôt que les explications culturelles ou génétiques. En combinant les théories économiques du comportement rationnel avec les perspectives sociologiques sur la dynamique de groupe et la formation de l'identité, elle offre une perspective interdisciplinaire unique. La collection constitue une lecture essentielle pour comprendre l'interaction complexe entre l'identité sociale et les résultats économiques.
