{"product_id":"race-and-american-political-development-joseph-e-lowndes-9780415961530","title":"Race and American Political Development","description":"\u003cp\u003eRace has been present at every critical moment in American political development, shaping political institutions, political discourse, public policy, and its denizens' political identities. But because of the nature of race--its evolving and dynamic status as a structure of inequality, a political organizing principle, an ideology, and a system of power--we must study the politics of race historically, institutionally, and discursively.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCovering more than three hundred years of American political history from the founding to the contemporary moment, the contributors in this volume make this extended argument. Together, they provide an understanding of American politics that challenges our conventional disciplinary tools of studying politics and our conservative political moment's dominant narrative of racial progress. This volume, the first to collect essays on the role of race in American political history and development, resituates race in American politics as an issue for sustained and broadened critical attention.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Joseph E.
