| Abstract
|
:
|
"Ethnic Peace in the American City documents the nature of contemporary interethnic relations in the United States by describing the dynamics of race relations in inner-city Los Angeles. Drawing from local as well as international examples and countering the white-black or biracial paradigms of American race relations, the authors explore practical means by which ethnically fragmented neighborhoods can work together to begin to address their common concerns before tensions become explosive. Book jacket."--BOOK JACKET.
